Edge of the Desert

Moab


With pull-out sofa beds, full kitchens, private gardens and TVs with Netflix, these cute one-bedroom park model homes make a nice fit for families. Some of the units have cramped lofts (more like crawl spaces) fashioned into TV rooms. Good option if you're looking to rest easy on a quiet side of town.
