It's open concept even the primary bedroom is open to the whole house. There is a guest bedroom with a curtain that could be closed. It's attached to a gift shop - used to be diner. I didn't like the touristy feel and we couldn't take pictures inside. Probably so we would purchase the book with the pictures. For 2 seniors it was $13. More expensive for younger adults. You could get the feel of the house just by going in the gift shop. I asked if they ever got bugs in it and was shown a picture of a seven inch long centipede. No thanks! I'll stay in a regular house.

From Moab, you drive along the Colorado on a somewhat remote, but paved road. The road goes deep into the canyon, bordered by several remote camping areas and trail heads. There are a few mobile homes along the road as well, and a small wooden house partially built into the rock walls of the canyon. We also saw three walls, for lack of a better word, built of stone, like those found in ancient ruins. Unfortunately, they were on private property with "No Trespassing" signs, so we didn't go check them out. Anyway, once you no longer see homes, the road goes on for maybe one more mile, then turns to unpaved gravel. Dirt bikes, utvs and other vehicles all use this road, and because it is a "shelf" road, it can be a little scary. Just go a little slower than you normally would, and you'll be fine. The rock sits below the level of the road, as does the signage, so you may drive by it, but there is enough room to both pull over or turn around. There is no parking lot. If you're into any sort of history, but especially native cultures, this is a nice little piece of it to check out. 38/2021

If you're an adventure seeker, you're going to love this! If you're scared of heights or get a little queasy, just know the angles are no joke. At some points, it genuinely felt like we were at a 45° angle. There isn't a ton of training beforehand, and they really just give you the basics you need to know. If you're someone who's comfortable figuring things out as you go, you'll probably love it. If you need a lot of guidance, it could feel a little intimidating. I'm SO glad I didn't drive, but my fiancé absolutely loved every second of it. We would recommend this tenfold!

The arches are just mind blowing and you get the wow effect. We did a couple of the longer hikes to get a better look. I would say that the Park Avenue trail was the hardest for me although I think it was listed as moderate. ‍ About 3 miles round trip. Many steps down and not much shade, it was warm out. The next day we went to Landscape Arch first. We were told it is a must see but that the hike to it was considered difficult. Well no it wasn't difficult at all. I would consider it moderate. The trail had smooth gravel which made it easy to navigate. It was not quite 3 miles round trip. So glad we did it because the arch is just amazing. The longest natural arch in the world.

Stunning! Absolutely stunning!…read moreI've traveled on four continents and this is easily one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Park Avenue was my favorite, then the Delicate Arch, but holy heavens, around literally every turn there was another absolute stunner of a view. I took easily 100 pictures during my relatively short time in the park. Then, when you drive back out, you see all the same stunning views, but at different angles, and you experience those things in a brand new way. This was easily the highlight of my 3,600 mile, 12-day, 9-state road trip. You have to come here, it is nearly unbelievable how beautiful it is. You have to experience it for yourself. Absolutely one of the most beautiful places in the US, without question!

There was minimal focus on the Settlers and the founding of the town. There was not much history telling daily life of the settlers before the uranium discovery. There was barely any mention of surrounding environment and the native Americans relationships to the settlers. Overall, it was a good way to spend an hour to an hour and a half. Admission price was $10 for adult and $8 for Senor. Free parking in front of the museum.

Aside from modern day Moab being a big tourist destination and jumping off point for adventures in places like Arches NP and Canyonlands NP I didn't know much about its origins so I was excited to visit the Moab Museum. The museum is one large room and while you can view the exhibits in any order I found it was best to start at the very beginning and work my way clockwise. The museum starts with the indigenous people who lived in modern day Moab and ends with Moab being central to two national parks and a recreation hub. Missionaries, fur trappers, cowboys, miners, adventurists and dinosaurs were all covered in between. My favorite exhibit was about William Grandstaff. The exhibit called "Tracing the Story of William Grandstaff" traces his roots from likely being enslaved in Virginia to becoming a Civil War era soldier, frontiersmen, pioneer, cowboy, miner and saloon manager in Utah and Colorado. I love when museums leave me wanting to know more and William Grandstaff is definitely someone who'd I'd like to learn more about. I'd also like to hike the trail named in his honor - the Grandstaff Trail in Grandstaff Canyon. One of the best features of the museum were historical pictures of the Moab area that you could scroll through on a tablet. The photos really helped me understand the history of Moab. Admission was $10 for an adult and I felt it was well worth it. The museum has a good bit of reading, some artifacts and a few interactive exhibits sprinkled in so some kids might be a little bored but I really enjoyed it. Kids 7 and under visit for free and students are $8.

We are picky and admittedly have an eye for good work. The Tom Till Gallery has some great pictures, all of which are photographs, mostly local, but also ones from around the world. They are quality pieces of art and look stunning in their gallery. Now here's the catch: They present the photos that are for sale in the racks as if they are mounted like the ones on the walls. They aren't. They're just loose photographs (see picture). Not a huge deal but considering the price the customer is blatantly being misled (ie they're overpriced). The elderly female clerk could also improve her PR skills (I had to box and pack our pictures myself because she was bending them to fit a smaller piece of cardboard!) Buyer beware: the photos are not worth the price you are paying in my opinion, but you be the judge. Just know they aren't mounted at all.
