Hello, I've read past posts on these parks, but hoping to get recommendations specific to our trip. In early June, my DW and teen daughters are going to fly into Vegas for a week and rent a car and drive to:
1. Grand Canyon, south rim (~1-2 days)
2. Antelope Canyon (1 day, guide is already booked)
3. Zion (2 days)
4. Bryce (2 days)
I am wondering about lodging. Usually we prefer vacation rentals vs. hotels. We will go to the Grand Canyon south rim area for the first and second night. After that we are debating if we just book one place as a home base for the remaining 5 days in between Zion and Bryce (Duck Creek Village, etc.) or if we opt to get a place by Zion for 2 days and then move to a place closer to Bryce for 2 days.
We would love to do the full "Mighty Five" tour but decided to focus on these areas since we only have a week.
Also... we don't know that area at all. So based on our general itinerary, I'd love to know about any can't-miss sights, county/state parks, great places to eat in the area, or just general advice.
