The place is and elevated motel in a quaint town of Blanding. You're greeted at arrival by a kindly and courtesy host. I love no door key to lose just a code to get into your room. The parking lot is nicely set up the lodge is surrounded by lovely plants and trees. We had a nice patio set outside which we used to have dinner. Our room was quite large w a big bed there's two night stands a desk area large tv on and dresser; another bed in an alcove is great for another person to have a bit of privacy w a night stand. The room had a microwave, fridge and coffee maker w a selections of coffee and teas. Bathroom was large and a great shower area w a nice shower head that had good hot water when needed. The amenities were awesome. The soap smelled great and had an amazing exfoliating seeds build in. The body lotion felt so luxurious on my skin. Towels and bed linens were perfect. If you read my posts about food you know I'm a water snob well when lodging in a sheet snob (my husband would say I'm like the princess and the pea). The sheets were soft and comfy. We had a restful nights sleep and awesome shower w great pressure. We then we welcomed to a breakfast all homemade even seemed the juices we fresher squeezed. I had the savory crusty bread w egg, tomato, kielbasa, ham and cheese inside it was so yummy. They had whole wheat cinnamon rolls that the frosting was great as well as the great flavor. The overnight chia was great loved the creaminess of the mixture but the fruit on top was fresh. The oj was as fresh and the coffee (I'm not a coffee drink but my mom said it was great). She gave us banana bread to take and it was dense and great. We ate breakfast in the back garden which was pretty and peaceful. They had patio tables, picnic tables but also had chaises and fire pits. I love that they had a bowl of chocolate to choose from rather than a chocolate on your pillow (which always seems weird and bring bugs. I would go here again and hope I get back to the area to do

We checked out other hotels and they were much more expensive, and at least here you can park infront of your room.

If you're expecting a 5 star hotel, you're obviously in the wrong place. There's no spa, but there's cozy beds, hot showers, and a lovely area outside to lounge around in with several tables chairs and a few grills. It certainly has a strong retro vibe, but if you're looking for fancy and modern, check out NYC. I hear it's fancy there.

I curled myself up in that comforter and was blissfully comfortable all night. Very clean, fridge, very small breakfast area in the AM but for the price it was simply enough. I appreciated the hard boiled eggs for a bit of protein. Super convenient to the Tesla EV supercharger station across the street.

During our road trip, we trekked up a storm but at some point between the monsoon, the lightening and the thunder as well as all the mountains starting to blend in together we decided the next state would be Utah. We were deciding on hotel vs Airbnb, we needed a one night rest to get up and continue driving. We opted for Airbnb and came across Dick's place which also had good reviews on Airbnb. We decided to take a chance and hoped he responded. Dick not only responded but he checked on us to make sure we had arrived safely as he knew we had a 5 hour drive from our last stop to his place. Upon arrival, the apartment was clean and free of any smells. There was kcups for coffee in the morning, as well as flavored cream. There were the essentials shampoo, towels, wash cloths, soap, knives, plates, cups, pretty must the necessities of any home. There was a binder that had some local tourism info as well as how far some highlights were from his place along with driving directions. There was ample parking and there were security cameras on the exterior of the property thus giving you piece of mind. Access to the keys was straight forward. It was an extremely nice experience. And lots of space, clean sheets, etc. We will definitely stay with Dick again if traveling back to or through the Utah area.

We first met Bill, the overseer of the 5 cabins. He is a personable chap. We followed him to our cabin, passing by 4 smaller cabins until we saw the most beautiful of all of them and it was ours for the night. Everything we needed was furnished for us except food. Charcoal, wood, matches and bottled water were all here. The cabin was well furnished and included grilling tools. Bill provided plates and utensils as well as a cooler for the ice we purchased at the local grocery store. There is no kitchen. However the bathroom had cool and hot water. Bill even dropped off a thermos of hot coffee in the am! The evening was cool, plenty of comforters for the beds, the sky was clear and the stars were beautiful. You may think you are alone but you aren't. We saw many deer, wild turkeys, a friendly hummingbird and a close by horse. If you find yourself near Blanding, UT, you must stay here. If you book early enough you might get the big cabin which was built by Dwayne. He stopped by shortly after we checked in and we assured him we would take good care of craftsmanship.

Thank you, Bill, we look forward to our next stay.

At arrival the unit had a bad propane leak and no one answered the contact number or email for hours. There was no main propane shut off at the cabin. We located the leak as internal at the stove. We turned the gas off there and aired out the cabin until it was safe to sleep in which was a little past midnight. The kitchen door didn't latch and couldn't be locked. We also had an issue with mice in the kitchen. Forget about showering, there was absolutely no water pressure, and only one bathroom had enough pressure to flush solid waste. We ran out of toilet paper since only 1 roll was provided for 16 people. The sinks also drained the grey water right outside the wall to the dirt and not to a septic system. The building wasn't built using commonly safe building practices. One room smelled liked a hamster family had died in or under the room. The tap water was trucked in and given the whole experience we didn't dare drink the water from the tap. One person braved it and ended up with lots of tummy troubles. If you want camping, then camp. Avoid this place unless you want a real shanty barn experience.

Plenty of fresh air. We also glad that we could bring our two huskies along, for an additional charge. They loved the cooler temperatures at night, in July. The cabin was good enough for 5 adults. The loft area was a lot shorter than i thought it would've been. It's about 3 ft high, so we had to crawl around up here. which was fine, the area would be great for kids. There was an AC, which seems like it needs to replaced, it just blows out warm air. But that didn't matter, because during the warm hours, we were outside in the shade. Even in July you just need to open the windows at night to cool the entire cabin down. The place was clean, but not to our standard of clean for a chain. We just clean a bit more, to our liking. The pots and pans are useable, they also need to be replaced, as well. They did have everything we needed. The hosts did have a booklet of all the house rules. As well as information on the two towns near by. This was my first "house rental" booking and the experience was great! communication with the host was clear and concise. I figured since the host lived in the area we would be checked on, we weren't. And that was great! that put me at ease. I can't wait to book this same cabin or one of the others soon.
