Oran is a Star Host
Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
Located exactly halfway between Salt Lake and Moab, The Store is a historic 113 year-old general store building that originally served the coal miners who lived and worked in the small former mining town of Kenilworth.
We purchased the building four years ago and have been bootstrapping our way slowly through its renovation. Our vision is to reinvent the Store as a creative retreat, arts space and desert permaculture site. We have ample indoor co-working, art studio and workshop space should you like to be productive during your stay. Or simply relax and enjoy the peace, quiet and serenity that this mountain sanctuary provides.
We are also surrounded by wilderness and outdoor recreation opportunities, including endless hiking, mountain biking and ATV trails. The nearby artists colony of Helper has lots of amenities and offerings including a floatable river with beaches and swimming holes. Within 30 minutes’ drive are several major tourist attractions such as Nine Mile Canyon, a large waterfall, and the San Rafael Swell.Enjoy a tiny house vibe with a king sized bed, nestled in the middle of our garden. Just outside the bus is a picnic area with table and chairs.
You’ll also have access to shared spaces inside the Store - a bathroom with shower, and co-working space with gigabit wifi.
The bus can get hot during the day and cold at night but comes with a fan for warm evenings and a space heater for chilly nights.
