About this property

Quaint Home In Town With Rural Feel!

Welcome to Desert Blue

This home is for 4 guests or less. It is not able to accommodate large trailers as it is on a narrow access road and a dead end. It would be difficult to turn around.

Our remodeled home is in the heart of Moab but feels a world away. The house is situated down a dirt lane which turns into a private road with very little traffic. It is quiet and peaceful with a truly rural feel. Our location is ideal! It is easy walking distance to main street; the recreation center with pool and fitness center; paved bike path and many other conveniences of town.

This older home has been remodeled. We have custom cabinets, granite counter tops, beautiful hard wood floor through out and new kitchen appliances. We have three bedrooms and two bathrooms, each with walk in showers. The large bedroom has a king size memory foam bed. The second bedroom has a queen bed with its own full bathroom. The third bedroom has two twin beds and is very small. The furnishings are uniquely rustic and eclectic with a luxurious at home feel.

Enjoy sitting or eating on the back patio in the large newly landscaped yard. We have a BBQ grill on the patio and also other seating areas around the property for you to relax and enjoy the surrounding red rock views. This lot is very private!

Going to town? No need to deal with parking when visiting main street. We have plenty of parking.

This is a great place to unwind after all your Moab adventures. .... come, put up your feet and enjoy!

We had a wonderful stay at Andrea’s place. It’s located just a few blocks from town yet it feels like it’s out in the country, quiet and surrounded by nature. The house itself is clean, comfortable and charming - we loved it! Andrea was super responsive and a great host.

House was perfectly located, very private with a great fenced area in the back yard. Both the heat and AC worked well, shower water pressure was great and plenty hot. Beds were comfortable. House is extremely well outfitted for those who want to cook but the delicious food court is only a 5 minute walk, everyone loved the food choices there. Would definitely stay here again.

Fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. Comfortable clean rooms and baths. The location could not have been better for walkable access to everything Moab central - cafes, shops, restaurants. Great parking too! If I had a toy trailer or travel trailer this property easily would work. We will try to be back for another stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return to this relaxing home!!!

Houses this close to town usually cost twice this price, so any small complaints about this place are outweighed by having a whole house and yard to yourself The location is quiet and peaceful, our grandson would ride his bike out front and there was no traffic to watch out for. The kitchen was surprisingly well equipped, and we were able to have a few meals at the inside and outside tables. Plenty of laundry soap, pods, luxury towels. Lots of places to be outside. Huge area for parking. I am very impressed with this place, after renting dozens of vacation rentals here in Moab. Highly recommend!

We live in Utah and first arrived in Moab 30 years ago. It has been a very special place for us ever since. We are often working, climbing, hiking and exploring here. We purchased this property in June 2014 and have spent the summer working on it. We hope you can enjoy the area as much as we do.
