Letzter Hurra, Haupthaus

What Tom if offering here is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. The remote setting and scenery are amazing. But what really took our breath away was the drive over Hurrah Pass. Because Tom has lived here so long and drives over the pass regularly, he downplays how rugged the journey actually is. I made the trip with my family in a rented SUV at dusk, and it was daunting. I wish the listing had encouraged me to rent a jeep in Moab and have fun with this road rather than worrying about damages to my rental car for much of the way. I will say that the journey back over the pass when we left felt easier since it was done in the morning and we'd grown somewhat used to the jagged path and terrifying drop-offs. Tom is preserving something incredibly special and is going to great lengths to bring supplies to this remote area. So, hats off to him even if the home we rented had floors that needed a good scrub and bed coverings that were not fresh (we washed them after arriving). The landscape and the feeling of this place are something we will never forget. Tom and his crew clearly work hard to make all this possible, and the pros far outweigh the cons.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Main House and highly recommend this home. Here's some takeaways: - The area surrounding the Main House is fantastic and there are plenty of hikes and other things to do to fill a week. The location is special! - Tom is great. Extremely knowledgeable and a concerned and helpful host. - Getting to the home will be easy for anyone with a high clearance truck or SUV (with off-road driving experience). For others with some sort of SUV, a few sections of the road might be a little over-whelming. Take your time and find the best path through the rocks and ruts. Try to relax and enjoy the drive. - We were glad we brought enough food for the entire week and did not have to drive back to Moab for supplies. I'd recommend sticking around the area and making the most of it rather than spending time going back and forth over the pass. (I imagine that for some folks, with the right vehicle, driving back and forth over the pass could be part of the fun.) - In this price range, you may expect a fancy house with fancy appliances, a gift basket waiting for you upon your arrival, etc. If you rent the Main House thinking that you are going to a fancy house, you will probably be disappointed. The house is a bit rustic, quirky, reasonably clean, and if you are not looking for fancy, you will probably love it. There are definitely some areas for improvement/fixes, but the surrounding area is so fantastic, that it's best to look past these minor shortcomings. - Be prepared to have neighbors close by. There are two hogans - one is about 50 yards from the main house and the other might be about 75 yards away. This seems perfect if you need additional places for friends or family members to stay. If you would prefer that any neighbors are further away, then the Condo may be the better option. Overall, fantastic experience and very happy to have had the opportunity to stay in the Main House.

We stayed two nights at the main house and loved the location and the views. The house is a bit rustic and not super upscale for those looking for modern luxuries. But the point of staying at this location is the crazy drive and the incredible solitude and views. We had to make two round trips to Moab in two days, and one trip back was a night in the rain. We have a Forester so all was well but it was tense at night on the rain drenched roads. Tom was great and we took advantage of the kayaks and ATV on the property. The turtle is too cool for words, lol! We wish we could have stayed for a week.

we loved our stay , being all the comforts you need and make sure you are careful driving in , road was not as bad as other folks had mentioned . we had a not modified toyota 4 runner and had no issues . hosts were helpful and the location , quiet, stars , privacy was the highlight . thank you Tom and Linney for sharing your land and stories and home with us . It’s a special place for those who are looking for a real escape from the rest of the world we regularly inhabit . i would return .

We absolutely loved this place. Star gazing at night left me speechless. Definitely a one of a kind getaway that I'm so happy to have experienced.

This property is rustic and not fancy at all but it has so much going for it, it’s worth forgoing the fluffy white towels and pristine housekeeping. It takes an hour of bumping along a very rough and dusty to get there and you must have a vehicle with good clearance and ideally 4wheel drive, otherwise you won’t make it. The owner is very helpful and good natured guy with a few good stories to tell. Kayaks and off road vehicles are on the property as well as many hikes and the best views you could ask for. Star gazing with a drink is a perfect way to end a day here
