Our Stories

Your Expedition. Your Story.

In the early 1980s, Justin Mabey spent his childhood exploring the great outdoors in his grandfather’s Jeep, navigating the dense forests and rocky streams of the Uinta Mountains. These cherished adventures, shared with family and friends, laid the foundation for a lifetime of unforgettable memories. Driven by a passion for nature and a desire to continue this legacy, Justin envisioned creating destinations where people could connect and strengthen relationships amidst the beauty of the natural world.

In 2016, Justin’s vision found its home in a beloved family location: Moab, UT. Seizing the opportunity, he transformed the town’s worst-rated hotel into one of the most unique boutique lodges, vibrant with the spirit of adventure and storytelling. Thus, Expedition Lodge was born—a hub for explorers and a place where generational stories could be shared and new ones written.

The Jeep, a symbol of adventure and community, became an integral part of our brand, featured in our logo and at each hotel. It stands as a tribute to preserving cherished memories while inviting others to embark on their own unforgettable journeys.

At Expedition Lodge, we honor our past and look forward to helping you create your own stories. Join us in Moab and Estes Park, where your expedition becomes your story. Explore our immersive lodgings near iconic natural landmarks and let the unforgettable stories unfold.
