My family of 7 (5 adults and 2 children, ages 9 and 4) had a blast at the Eagles Nest. We were given detailed direction after turning onto La Sal Loop Road to watch our odometer for 10 miles to find two driveways and then the Eagles Nest driveway but unfortunately my husband didn't pay attention as well as he thought :) and we miscounted. My advice for anyone looking for this place is as you get closer to the mileage, you should see two cabins (one with a light gray metal roof and another with a light blue metal roof) with a long wooden pole fence. At the end of the wooden fence is the gravel driveway for Eagles Nest. Right at the driveway, you should also see a road sign mentioning that Whispering Ranch is 5 miles. Hopefully this will help the next guests looking for the place.
Regarding the place, it is even more beautiful in person than the pictures. The house is well-kept and clean. It was well-stocked with amenities including non-perishable items in the pantry. If you’re looking for a place where you can walk around Moab easily, this is not the place. If you’re looking for a quiet location where you can watch the sunset and have a cup of coffee in the morning on the deck, this is the place! Don’t worry! Moab is a short drive in. No one in our party (including the kids) had any complaints except that we had to leave.
Also, Beth (Smith), our property contact, was very responsive when I had a question prior to the stay. She also checked to make sure we were okay during our visit.
This house is worth the money. We will definitely be back! It deserves 6 out of 5 stars!
