Great cabin, Great location

Great one night stop for our family of five! Clean and comfortable, kitchen well equipped, comfortable beds. Kept us warm as the temps dipped into the 20s and several inches of snow fell overnight. Great location! We stayed in Moab most of our trip, but this cabin about an hour south allowed us to make a day trip to Monument Valley, Goosenecks SP, and the Needles district of Canyonlands without having to drive all the way down and back in the same day. Definitely recommend!

Great experience at Canyonlands lodging

The location of the cabin was very beautiful. There wasn’t any issues finding the location and checking was easy. The long view cabin has a great view and the actual property was perfect. Had a great time with my family roasting marshmallows on the fire pit and looking at the canyon from the porch. Would definitely go back again.

Nice Place

The cabin was clean and comfortable with nice amenities. We especially enjoyed the hanging chair in the loft, the labeled and well-stocked kitchen cabinets and drawers, and the fire pit. There were a few hitches which the staff fixed promptly, but you have to leave messages on an answering machine after 5 pm, or text, and you don't know when that will be answered. Feels like dealing with a business, not quite like a vrbo host. We were without water for about 4 hrs our first day. The water is trucked in and there had been recent repairs to our cabin's water system which might have caused the problem. The staff got right on it, but can't get water trucked in immediately. Next issue was that there wasn't any gas in the grill tank which we discovered just before cooking dinner. A friendly neighbor let us use theirs. I left messages for the owners and later that evening they came by with fresh tanks. Finally, two of the burners on the otherwise very new-looking gas stove wouldn't light consistently toward the end of our stay. Not a big deal for us.The location could be ideal if you are planning to do some activities in Canyonlands and some south of Blanding. It feels very private and serene, and it's about a 15-minute drive for groceries, restaurants, etc.

Wonderful cabin, great area

We spent a fabulous weekend in the Africabin. It is far enough away from Moab to be nice and quiet and close enough to visit Bluff, Blanding, and Moab as well. Very comfortable and owners were super helpful. Highly recommend!

Quiet, peaceful and tucked away

The Africabin was a lovely and quiet place to stay. We felt at home and enjoyed the patio and outdoor living space after our long hiking days. Thank you to the Murdock's for the hospitality they showed us during our stay. This was a great base for activities in Southeast Utah.

Nice stay at the Africabin!

My family had a wonderful stay here at the Africabin. It's a lovely home in a quiet area that is an easy drive to major sights from Canyonlands to Natural Bridges and other interesting historical sights in between. The home is comfortable, clean, and well stocked with everything anyone could possibly need.

Just What I Needed

This place did not disappoint! I was needing a break from life and to disconnect from work and kids etc.. The “Africabin” was exactly what I needed to recenter and connect with nature. I recommend this place to anyone looking to do the same. It was clean, updated, easy to find and the location is gorgeous.

Great rustic cabin with everything you need

This cabin was perfect for our trip with extended family out to see the annular eclipse. The four adults took the bedrooms downstairs and the kids had an absolute blast in the three beds in the loft. The decor was beautiful, with many little details that you don't usually see in vacation rentals. The bathroom setup is great, as the toilet and shower are separated so more than one person can use the bathroom at a time (this was helpful when several people needed to get ready in the morning). The playground and treehouse outside were a huge hit with our kids, and the area is absolutely spectacular. We enjoyed walking the perimeter loop, especially with the crisp fall air. Overall we were really happy with this cabin and would love to come back someday!

About the host

Hosted by Canyonlands Vacation Rentals

Host profile image
Jerry and Tina Murdock and their sons built this Cabin for travelers to enjoy the Canyonlands area. We are the proud parents of many children, and even more grandchildren. We love riding horses, ATV's, and Jeeps on the trails, mountains, and canyons in the area, and the hiking trails are absolutely amazing. You will love it too!

Why they chose this property

This cabin has a full kitchen and living room/dining room areas along with plush sleeping areas. We are centrally located among 12 National Parks and Monuments. This beautiful cabin is secluded, quiet and private, yet is accessible to the highway for easy visits to sites of your choice, or just relax on the covered patio and enjoy the scenery and quiet. The sunrises and sunsets here are spectacular, and the star gazing is out of this world. You are sure to enjoy the cabin and all of its western luxuries.
Thank you,
Jerry and Tina Murdock
