What and Where is the Deserts Edge?
A: The Desert’s Edge is a private residence on 5 acres, located in the south west corner of the valley near Mountain’s Edge Master Community.
Secluded but close to town,10 minutes from The Durango Hotel and only 20 minutes from The Strip, our breathtaking views of the Spring Mountains and Red Rock are the perfect backdrop for your special event.
And don’t even get us started on the gorgeous sunsets!
What are the driving conditions and parking situation for The Desert’s Edge?
A: While we do our very best to maintain it, the road to the property is unpaved so we just advise everyone to take it slow and proceed with caution. We do have a desert lot, but parking is limited. Shuttle services are a great way to get your guests out here easily.

Can you plan my event?
A: TDE will not schedule or contact any outside vendors, rentals, caterers, etc. on your behalf except for giving location instructions. It is strictly up to you or your planner to make all arrangements.
Can you coordinate my event?
As an add on to your package, for an additional charge, The Deserts Edge can act as your day of coordinator. If you hire an outside coordinator/planner and they are a no show, TDE will step in to coordinate on your behalf, an additional fee of $1200 will be charged.
Do you provide catering?
A: You would need to bring in food from an outside source, however we can provide a catering staff to help serve the food and clear dishes. Food trucks are also a great idea for out here!
Can I hire outside vendors?
A: Any outside vendors are welcome! Outside vendors are responsible for setup, breakdown, and cleanup of their own products by 10AM the following morning.
The Desert’s Edge reserves the right to charge additional fees if vendors fail to pick up items in time or interfere with another party coming in.

How can I provide alcohol to my guests?
A: One way would be to bring in alcohol that you have purchased yourself and, if necessary, we can provide you with a licensed bartender. No liquor sales are permitted unless provided by a licensed, insured vendor. Mobile bar cart services are a great option for this location.
Do we need a bartender?
A: 25 people or less can be BYOB or self-serve, otherwise you are required to have a bartender to serve your guests. Mobile bar carts or liquor vendors are ok as long as they have proper licenses and insurance.
Can we consume cannabis on the property?
A: We are a cannabis friendly environment for consumption. Sales of cannabis are strictly prohibited. We ask that smoking (cannabis or tobacco) be consumed in a designated area not on deck, patio or indoor areas. No drugs please.
