Quail Lake Estates Homes for Sale in Hurricane, Utah
Quail Lake Estates is the affordability play in Hurricane, period. The newest listings are featured at the top of the page. This is the community I point people to when their budget starts with a 1 or a 2 and they still want to be near Sand Hollow, Quail Creek, and Zion without driving in from somewhere else. The trade-off is that you give up the bigger lot and the new construction finishes, and you pick up a real HOA that does real work.
The subdivision sits off SR-9 on the west side of Hurricane, accessed from 4400 West right next to the gas station near the Virgin River. Quail Creek State Park is five minutes away, which is part of the appeal and part of where the name comes from. St. George is a 15 minute drive west on the highway.

The newest Quail Lake Estates listings are featured at the top of the page. Use Advanced Search to filter by price, square footage, or bedrooms. Inventory rotates regularly, partly because Quail Lake is one of the few places in Hurricane where genuine starter-price homes still trade.
Be Honest About What You Are Buying
This is the part of the page that most listing sites skip, and I think that does buyers a disservice. Quail Lake Estates is a mixed-product community. You will find:
- Manufactured and modular homes, mostly from the 1986 to 1989 build years. These are typically 400 to 750 sqft, 1 to 2 bedrooms, with carports rather than garages. Prices currently run $110K to $260K.
- Stick-built single-family homes, mostly from the 2003 to 2006 build years. These are typically 1,100 to 1,400 sqft, 2 to 3 bedrooms, with attached 2-car garages on slightly bigger 0.08 to 0.10 acre lots. Prices currently run $320K to $350K.
- Larger custom builds, a smaller group of homes with quarter-acre lots, garages, and substantial square footage. The standout recent sale was a 2,475 sqft home with an attached saltwater indoor pool house that closed at $440K.
The reason this matters for buyers is financing. Manufactured and modular homes do not always qualify for the same conventional loan products as stick-built single-family homes, and lenders have specific requirements around foundation type, age, and HUD tags. If you are financing, the home type affects the loan options, the appraisal process, and the interest rate. Cash buyers and investors generally do not care, which is part of why so many of the smaller units here trade as rentals.
I am not steering you away from any of these. They are all legitimate homes serving real buyers. I just want you to know which one you are walking into before you make an offer.
Price Range and What You Get
Recent activity across the community tells the story:
- $110K active for a 408 sqft 1 bed, 1 bath as an investment rental.
- $197K to $220K for 560 to 748 sqft 1 or 2 bed units, currently or recently rented.
- $259K closed for a 1,248 sqft 3 bed, 2 bath single-level home.
- $320K to $350K for the 1,179 to 1,298 sqft 2003 to 2006 stick-built homes with 2-car garages and fenced backyards.
- $334,900 closed for a 1,262 sqft updated 3 bed, 2 bath built in 2006.
- $440K closed for the 2,475 sqft custom home with the indoor saltwater pool, oversized garage, and quarter-acre lot.
This price ladder does not exist anywhere else in Hurricane right now. Even the most affordable parts of Painted Hills and Dixie Springs generally start in the high $300s or $400s. Quail Lake Estates is the only community in town where you can still get into a real home under $300K, and one of very few where you can get in under $200K.
The HOA Actually Does Something Here
Most Hurricane subdivisions either have no HOA or have a small token HOA that maintains common open space. Quail Lake Estates is different. Dues are around $91 per month, sometimes a few dollars higher or lower depending on the section, and what they cover is substantial:
- Community clubhouse with outdoor heated pool, hot tub, exercise room, and covered pavilion with BBQ areas.
- Water and sewer.
- Garbage service.
- Private road maintenance.
- Common area maintenance.
- Cable TV on certain units.
If you back the utility coverage out of the HOA dues, the actual community fee for amenities is essentially nothing. That is a different value proposition than a typical HOA, and it is one of the real reasons retirees and investors like this community. For buyers who specifically want zero HOA, the no HOA homes filter shows other options, but Quail Lake Estates is one of the few cases where the HOA arguably pays for itself.
Investment and Second-Home Use
Quail Lake Estates has more investor activity than most Hurricane subdivisions because the entry price is low and the rental demand is real. One current listing notes long-term rents running $1,200 to $1,400 per month on a smaller unit. The HOA-included amenities make this a reasonable second-home spot for snowbirds who want the pool and clubhouse without owning more house than they need.
Hurricane has restrictive short-term vacation rental rules, so confirm the specific zoning and HOA rental policy on any unit before assuming nightly rental is an option. Long-term rental and personal second-home use are the standard plays here.
Location and Lifestyle
Quail Lake Estates is essentially the front door of Sand Hollow country, sitting between Hurricane and the reservoir. Quail Creek State Park is a five minute drive, Sand Hollow Reservoir is about 15 minutes, and Zion National Park is roughly 25 minutes east on SR-9. Downtown Hurricane is five minutes away for groceries and restaurants, and St. George is a 15 minute drive west via I-15.
Grandpa's Pond Disc Golf Course is right around the corner if that is your thing, and Sky Mountain Golf Course is about 15 minutes away. The location is honestly one of the easier ones in Hurricane for getting around without driving forever.
Schools
Most Quail Lake Estates homes are zoned to Coral Canyon Elementary, with a few addresses falling to Hurricane Elementary or Three Falls Elementary depending on the specific unit. Hurricane Intermediate, Hurricane Middle, and Hurricane High complete the path for all addresses in the community.
How Quail Lake Estates Compares to Other Hurricane Options

- Dixie Springs is another established no-HOA option with similar price points to Painted Hills.
- Painted Sands is the entry-level new construction option in Hurricane, starting in the low $400s with a small HOA.
- Quail Lake Estates sits as the genuinely affordable option in Hurricane, with the only home prices in town that still start under $200K.
Frequently Asked Questions About Quail Lake Estates
Are these manufactured homes or stick-built?
Both, depending on the specific unit. The 1986 to 1989 era homes are mostly manufactured or modular construction. The 2003 to 2006 era homes are stick-built single-family. The MLS listing should specify, and any home inspection will confirm. This distinction affects financing options, so verify on any specific home before making an offer.
How much is the HOA and what does it cover?
Dues are around $91 per month, with slight variation by section. The HOA covers the community clubhouse with outdoor heated pool, hot tub, exercise room, and pavilion, plus water, sewer, garbage, private roads, and common area maintenance. Some units also include cable TV in the dues.
Can I finance a manufactured home in Quail Lake Estates?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends on the home's age, foundation type, HUD tags, and the lender. FHA, VA, and conventional manufactured home loans all exist but have specific requirements. Work with a lender who has actually done manufactured home loans before, because a general residential lender may struggle with the underwriting. I can refer you to lenders who do this regularly.
Is Quail Lake Estates a 55+ community?
No. There is no age restriction. The community does attract a lot of retirees because of the amenities and low maintenance, but families and younger buyers live here too.
What does a typical Quail Lake Estates home cost?
Active and recent activity ranges from $110K for the smallest investment units up to $440K for the largest custom home. The bulk of the market is between $250K and $350K. Stick-built homes from the 2000s typically trade in the $320K to $350K band.
Can I rent out a Quail Lake Estates home?
Long-term rentals are common and the rental demand is real. Hurricane has restrictive short-term vacation rental rules, so verify the specific zoning and HOA rental policy on any unit before assuming nightly rental is allowed.

Working With Lance on a Quail Lake Estates Purchase or Sale
If you are buying in Quail Lake Estates, the most important conversation is about what type of home you are actually looking at and how you plan to finance it. The wrong loan product on a manufactured home will sink the deal at appraisal. The right one closes clean. I have done enough of these to know which units have the issues and which ones don't.
If you already own in Quail Lake and want to know what your unit is worth, the comp sets here have to be sorted carefully by home type, year built, and section. Averaging the whole subdivision will give you a useless number. I can put together a real comp set that reflects what your specific unit will actually sell for in today's market.
