Toquerville is a small town north of Hurricane with a long agricultural history, notable for its spring and secondary water and larger, greener lots. Buyers here are often after a bit of land for a home plus a garden, orchard or animals, with the Pine Valley Mountains and Zion corridor close by.
Water is again the headline. Some Toquerville parcels convey secondary/irrigation water that makes landscaping and small-scale agriculture practical in the desert — a real advantage. Confirm what water conveys with the parcel, how it's delivered, and whether culinary water is via the town system or a well.
Toquerville is a good match for buyers who want a semi-rural lifestyle with more room than the cities offer, without going as remote or as high-elevation as Apple Valley or Enterprise.

Frequently asked questions
Does Toquerville land come with irrigation water?
Many parcels do carry secondary or irrigation water tied to the area's agricultural history, which is valuable for landscaping, gardens or animals. Always verify exactly what water rights or shares convey and how water is delivered before purchasing.
Are Toquerville lots larger than in St. George?
Generally yes — Toquerville tends to offer larger, more semi-rural parcels than the built-out cities, which is a big part of its appeal to buyers who want space and greenery.
