Staying here is a one of a kind experience, especially if you get a tent that allows you to see the night sky from bed. The tents were comfortable and had good amenities. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful, and the dining options were also very good. I would highly recommend staying here.

The 1 mile road to the property was a gravel washboard. When we got there they was a rattlesnake in the parking area. They advertised pet friendly. The wind blew so hard it was frightening. When we went to check in for a 3 night stay they have no electric outlets and they did not allow dogs to stay alone in the cabin. This area is meant for trips to canyons, restaurants and outdoor activities. It ranches temperatures of 100 degrees. Our pet would not have been safe. We asked for a 2 day refund and the management was rude and insulting. I would NOT attempt to bring your pet.

This site was one of my absolute best experiences. The concept of glamping with all the stars above your head is just phenomenal. The overall experience of water conservation and design of the tents was amazing. The staff, was next to none, some of the friendliest people I have ever met. We met so many nice folks sitting around the campfire. Great times!!!

My husband and I stayed 3 nights in under Canvas Lake Powell. The entire experience was wonderful! Everything about this stay was incredible! The tents are clean, the beds are so comfortable and it was so much fun having fires in our tent and it really kept the tent nice and warm. We met so many nice people at the fire pits. The staff were so friendly. I really didn’t know what to expect before coming here but everything was just perfect. It was really a memorable adventure.

Loved it!

A really unique experience sleeping in such a beautiful location under the stars! The tent could not have been any nicer. The bed was super comfortable, and there was a wood heated stove that was perfect for a little bit of heat. The restaurant was great! Staff was super friendly! Would definitely visit again!

Great, unique experience overall!

Staying here was definitely an experience that we are glad we had. The location is beautiful with amazing views in every direction. We stayed in the stargazer tent and were able to see so many stars - we happened to be staying during a meteor shower week and got lucky enough to see a really good one! Overall the tent/room was really comfortable and had everything you would need. We had a king bed and while the mattress was comfortable it was VERY noisy. If you moved at all in your sleep the whole bed would squeak so needless to say we didn't have the best night sleep, but it didn't detract too much from our experience (granted we only stayed one night). Not sure if we got lucky or if all beds are like that. Super nice to have food options on the premises so that everything you need is right there and they also have fire pits/free smores which was really fun. Our dinner we got when we checked in was really tasty (we both got simple chicken strips/sandwich but tasted good quality) but the breakfast felt lackluster and overpriced. Staying here isn't cheap and I'm not sure why a bagel with cream cheese would be $9. I also got a yogurt "parfait" which was just a few scoops of plain greek yogurt with a tiny bit of granola and a few pieces of fruit on top - $14! It definitely was not a parfait but more like plain yogurt with a few toppings. So I would say skip breakfast and eat in town.... but again, we loved our experience here and are glad we came!
