Ranch House

Located in a quiet ghost town 35 minutes north of down town Moab, 30 miles from entrance to Arches National Park, and turn off to Canyonlands National Park. Very nice, 2 bedroom 2 bath home. Ideal for the outdoor persons who like to bicycle for many miles and leave from the front door, perfect also if you have ATVS. There are hundreds of miles of back country ATV trails that can be accessed from the front door. We are only 3 miles from some of the areas best ancient Indian pictographs and 3 miles north of a cluster of some of the areas best dino tracks

Country Charm
This VRBO was a wonderful place to call home for a few days as we explored Utah. We enjoyed the quiet and peaceful surroundings as we unwound on the deck after a long day of exploring. Would recommend this to family and friends

Great Stay In The Desert
We loved our stay in Thompson Springs. The property was extremely clean and exceeded our expectations. We loved the little community that surrounded us. If you don't mind driving a little bit to get to things, this is the place for you!

Very cute, very clean, everything you need.
The property is adorable, super clean, and stocked with everything you need. Very pleased with our stay. There weren't great views, but we got that on our hikes and really just came back to sleep, so for us it wasn't big deal. The only con was the train that goes through a couple times a night. But we will definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Ranch House
We have stayed at Ballard before but this was our first time at the Ranch House. It had everything we needed, and we really liked the laminate floors over the carpeting in the other places. As always, thanks to the crew at Ballard for a great stay!

Wonderful Stay
This property was clean and neat at check-in. We had everything we needed. There is a train that runs several times during the day and night. We stayed 5 nights and it only woke us the first night. This is a great location for visiting Canyonlands and Arches National Parks. This accommodation is in a RV park. It is very quite and a great place to relax.

Perfect Peace!
Clean, comfortable, very affordable! A wonderful place away from the Hub Bub of SLC and Moab! Yet quick car ride to both!! And we could see the stars and hear the birds, and very little else! So quiet, so peaceful! Can not recommend enough.

Amazing!
I loved staying here! It was impeccably clean and peaceful. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful. I left one of my key fobs for my truck and they called me and are sending it to me. You usually have to call and ask when you discover you forgot something but their housekeeper found it and took it in and they called me ironically when I had just discovered I couldn’t find it.my only wish is that I stayed longer. I will be back.

PERFECT
The location was perfect for us (traveling to Zion from Colorado). We spent 2 nights here and explored arches and canyonlands a bit. This is about 30 minutes from Arches.. That was a positive as were away from the hustle and bustle of Moab. The house itself is lovely....very clean and a perfect size for 2 couples. The basics were very well stocked....we would absolutely love to stay here again if through this location!

comfortable
Very convenient location for exploring Moab and surrounding area. Beds were very comfortable and the place was just amazingly clean for a desert environment. We had the main circuit breaker pop on Sunday morning around 8 am and the maintenance guy was there in about 5 minutes and things were back up. Very very responsive. It has a nice easy going vibe and just felt comfortable the whole time. Had everything we needed including coffee, creamer, sugar; along with cooking pots and pans - even a pizza pan. ( which we did use.)

Great stay for Moab trip!
Great RV park located in the ghost town of Thompson Springs. Excellent jumping off place to visit Arches and Canyonlands Natl Parks, Dead Horse State Park, the La Sal Loop, Moonflower Canyon and petroglyphs, Dinosaur tracks, and the Birthing Rock which we visited. Also don't miss Sego Canyon and it's petroglyphs, Thompson Springs ghost town which featured the cafe scene in the'Thelma and Louise' movie. The cafe is still there!! We stayed in the 'Ranch House, a two bedroom/two bathroom mobile home with washer and dryer. Clean. Clean, clean! Owners were very warm and welcoming!
