About

How Edge of the Desert Started

We fell in love with Moab the way most people do:

  • Red rocks that glow at sunrise.
  • Trails that never seem to end.
  • Sunsets that make you stop mid-sentence.

But every visit ended the same way — back to a disappointing hotel room with sealed windows and a view of the parking lot.
So we asked ourselves:

  • What if visitors could have a real home in Moab?
  • A place with a porch to watch the sunset…
  • Windows that open to desert breezes…
  • And space to actually breathe after a long day?

That question became Edge of the Desert.

🏡 Today, over 12,000 guests have discovered what hotels can’t provide:

Private porches with red rock views
Windows that actually open
Your own front door (no shared hallways)
Full kitchens (not $15 hotel breakfasts)
5 minutes to Arches, close to downtown

They came for the location.
They stayed for the porch.
They left reviews because hotels just can’t compete.

We’re not trying to be the fanciest property in Moab. We’re trying to be the most real one.
