Cheerful 2-Bedroom in the Heart of Desert Aire🏔

CarlyRating, 5 stars9 months ago

We rented this place because we were going to a concert that weekend. It was in a reasonable distance from the gorge, so it was easy to get back-and-forth. There is not a lot around the area, but if you need gas or groceries, you can get pretty easily. The place was very clean and the area was peaceful .

Loved the back porch! Amazing view of the canyon, with a very short walk right down to the river from the back door. Clean with comfy beds in an adorable little community of unique houses. Loved walking down to the little store for treats. Shuttle picked us up right from the house to go to the Gorge for our concert. Would definitely stay again!
