Moab tiny house

We had a wonderful stay in the house. It was very clean and stocked well with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We had enough paper towel and toilet paper, hand soap and dish soap. It was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. Loved sitting on the porch and reading. They even left 2 scrumptious cookies on the table for us. Would definitely stay here again!

This little quaint property is not what you'd expect! It is super cute and dainty on the outside but very modern and comfy on the inside. My best friend, her husband, and my husband all loved it here. We would recommend it for anyone with kids or even just adults and we will be coming back! Sharon was just the sweetest and is so amazing!

The edge of the Desert is just as the VRBO owner pictures and descriptions indicate.

We stayed for 3 nights as we saw the sights around Moab. Our tiny home was very clean and well stocked with anything we needed. It is very easy access to Arches and Canyonland national park and the activities of Moab. It is also a very peaceful and quiet place to sit on the porch and enjoy the end of the day.

Great place if you love the tiny home concept with a generous size bedroom.

This was a very nice place. We knew going into it that the loft was only 4 feet high. Did prove a little tricky for the couple who stayed up there. One thing we noticed is the stairway was very narrow and steep.This place was clean and tidy. The owner was very quick to respond to our needs.

Quiet, enjoyable stay in Moab

We loved this quiet, clean, ‘tiny’ house. It was actually very spacious and comfortable. Moab is an exceptional destination and this was a good base camp!
