Gecko House

In the center of Thompson Springs ghost town! Quiet and peaceful. This is not for the person who loves rush hour in the big city! There is a Shell station in town and that's it! Bring groceries with you when you come. Moab and Arches National park is about a half hour drive to the south. This place is really all about freedom. If you decide to ride an ATV through Town, nobody bothers you. If you decide to ride your bicycle down old hwy 6 you might pass a car, but chances are you won't.

Was very clean and enjoyable stay. Easy to check in had everything we needed for the night. Easy check out process. Would happily stay again. The view was beautiful as well. We enjoyed sitting on the porch swing and just looking out into the desert and the night sky.

We can here specially to wander around the Sego Canyon Petroglyphs area, which we did. But we were charmed by the Gecko Cabin, which fit our needs perfectly. We cooked supper and breakfast both, spread out and took several walks. The check-in process went smoothly, as well as check-out. I would recommend this place to anyone!

We loved our stay at this little place. We were greeted after a long, hot day with nice cold air conditioning and the whole place made us want to stay a couple more days. If we do another road trip in this direction, we'll definitely stay here again!

Is a peaceful place ! The cabin was good , clean enough supplies and very comfortable. The Town has no access to restaurants near by is good considering to bring your own food ! But is a good alternative to stay outside Moab

Secluded and peaceful place to stay. Bed and pull out couch were great, plenty of blankets and pillows. We went to Moab and Arches National Park in the morning, which was just a short 30-40 min drive away.
