    Swede, The Lazy Lizard Hostel could be an interesting solution. We could, basically, rent out the whole place if it was all available when we want to go.

    Lazy Liazard DOES look interesting for sure.

    Just talked to a guy called Brett there...

    No bookings accepted for May 2015 UNTIL January.. SWEET ...

    There is room for CAMPERS in garden area of "Water Melon House"
    ..and 5th wheel/Rv space too. EXCELLENT ....

    ===

    Sounds like it could be awesome..with everyone ( campers/glampers/etc)..
    ...all in same place.

    Who can check it out..in person !!

    Only negative I see is it isn't walking distance to downtown. But other than that, I think it could be ideal for our little coven.

    I just read a bunch of reviews for the Lizard... I got the feeling you should bring your own bedding, lock up your stuff, expect to hear every conversation in rooms next to yours, & expect to meet, hang out with, & share your booze with some "different" perhaps "unsavory" types. Taking over the whole joint would be the way to go!

    I think that is more the case for the dorms and private rooms. The cabins and houses are separate.

    Besides, we ain't eggzactly the quietest crowd around.

    Frankly, from what I have been reading the vibe of the place is right up our alley. There might be a few that prefer plusher accommodations, but they are free to "commute" to the Stoop South for socializing.

    Jo, like I said before, I'm probably the closest one of us to Moab and could motor out there for a weekend sometime soon. I would be happy to check out the Lazy Lizard and talk up our little group to see if we could get the place for a week.

    Not being able to walk to town IS a negative, but I don't think that it's a deal breaker. With a full kitchen and maybe some BBQ area's we could do a few pot luck dinners during the week to both save money and have a little more bonding time with the fam.

    Yup mark....the Pros & Cons seem to balance...
    ..or maybe even favor it.

    I think a place that everyone can stay, from hotel'ers to campers...
    ..is a big plus

    Cooking & BBQ is a big plus too...
    ..and like you say..Pot Lucks etc would be great.

    Most of the others I've tried are all booked...
    ..and those with space are either VERY expensive..or only have 3-4 rooms.

    So yea..mount up yer trusty stead.. and check it out ...

    ..that would be awesome

    Yeah, I like it. It's nothing fancy - most of the negative reviews are from people who expected something other than was promised. I would be happy in a cabin or sharing a house.

    Wonder if they are booked for May yet, their website says they don't take reservations more than 6 months in advance.
