Outside the resort, exclusive, tailored adventures throughout Moab’s stunning natural landscape await, from Jeep tours to canyoneering, rock climbing, river rafting, scenic air tours, and hot air balloon rides. After a long day of discovery, guests return to enjoy a peaceful lounge on the porch swings of their custom-built cabins; a regionally sourced, sustainable meal alfresco on the riverside deck of the resort’s signature restaurant; a friendly lawn game or competition on the basketball, tennis and volleyball courts; a dip in the refreshing outdoor pool and hot tub; a visit to the pot-bellied pigs, horses, rabbits and other animals at the petting zoo and stables; and so much more.
Sitting on one of the most unique physical landscapes in the American Southwest, the resort is also deeply connected to its land. Whether it be through excursions or its own services and amenities, much of the resort’s offering is centered around sustainability and the impact that sharing an authentic experience has on inspiring guests long after their vacations are over.
“The Sorrel experience is purposefully designed to provide not just your standard ‘adventures’, but ‘ed-ventures’,” said Elizabeth Rad, owner of Sorrel River Ranch. “Education is built into everything we offer because it is crucial to us that our guests leave Moab with more than memories. Our goal is for them to gain a deeper respect for the region’s rich history during their stay, and we take pride in incorporating that message in a novel and exciting way with every new season.”
