About this property

Southern Book Cliffs

THIS HOUSE ONLY SLEEPS 2! We are 35 miles North of Moab and 30 miles north of Arches National Park. We are just 1 mile off of I-70 exit 187, which is the closest exit to the Moab exit #182. We are close enough to be convenient ,and yet far enough away to be secluded. The house is clean and new and is perfect for a couple who is not wanting to spend a fortune . There is a fully equipped kitchen ,complete with pots and pans.

Perfect amount of space for 2. Had everything we needed to stay for a couple days. We drove a little away from the property for stargazing due to one (of only 2) of the street lights being right next to us.

Convenient and quiet

Convenient location to Moab, canyon hikes and the national parks nearby. This place was perfect for me and my two dogs to go explore during the day and then come back to shower and pass out! Occasional train heard but otherwise quiet.

Incredible Views

The place was extremely clean, neat and tidy. Located in a quiet little hidden gem area of Utah. Easy to drive to NPs Canyonlands and the Arches. Loved the scenic views at the Vrbo. It was super cute! I would definitely book a stay here again. Extremely easy check in and check out. Great host! Appreciate this trip.

Moab/Sand Hollow vacation

We stpped here for our trip to Moab and stayed 4 nights. Lots a parking for Truck and Trailer. Very clean and a comfy bed. We stayed in a one bedroom and enough room for the two of us. 35 mins to downtown Moab and that was fine for us because we have to trailer our side by side. They do have a nice Canyon to ride from the cabin also. We will be back to stay and that might be with a group us!!

Great place close to Moab.

We really enjoyed our stay there. The place was clean, there’s coffee which it was a nice surprise for us. The area is really peaceful. The bathroom is clean and plenty of towels. It was like home away from home! I’m this particular property you will need to bring an extra air mattress to fit another person a queen mattress was able to fit in the living room. It was great! Thank you!

No AC

The house was wonderful and exactly as listed, it was small and cozy and had a great view in a great neighborhood. Although the AC unit was unable to cool the house throughout our entire visit. The thermostat was set at 72 degrees and the windows left closed, per the request of the property owner and the AC was constantly running and not making a dent in the heat. The first night it made it to 88 degrees in the house by 8 pm and the second night made it to 92. It was to the point of unbearble and impossible to sleep. Attempted to make contact with the property host to confirm if this was the norm (being in the desert I semi understand some heat) but was never answered.

I can’t say enough about how clean our cabin was. It’s very nicely decorated and it had everything you would need to be able to fix a meal or just being able to relax If you like the outdoors, there’s a lot of area around to exploreCheck in was very simple and a very quiet environment surrounding

Very nice unit in the RV park. 45 minutes to Fisher Peaks, Arches, Canyonland and Dead Horse Point. Clean. Excellent furniture. There are bright exterior lights on the property which limits the dark sky viewing. I would stay here anytime over a Moab motel.

June 2025

Property was perfect for the two of us. The cabin was very clean and was well stocked. The only caution I would give was the A/C struggled to keep up on the days it was in the upper 80’s and 90’s. We did contact the owners so that are aware and are hopefully looking into correcting this issue. I would 100% stay here again as long as it was not in the heat of the summer. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay while visiting the area!

We had a great time and everything was as it was in the listing. My one complaint is that in the listing is says you are 30 minutes from Arches National Park, which is partially true. I would say it is about 40 minutes and that
