As our family of four approached Under Canvas Zion after spending the day exploring Zion National Park, we quickly realized this is the road less traveled and all the better for it! Stunning views and no traffic for the win. You’re greeted like royalty, from the friendly initial text intro to the warm host at reception, Samuel, who ensures your tent(s) will meet all your needs and then some. You are then given a private tour (we dug Ron) via a chauffeured golf cart to valet you to your lodging. Prepare to be spellbound by the vermillion sandstone canyons that surround the compound, creating a surreal, intimate ambience with ridiculously gorgeous vistas and mesas. Better still, the nonstop panorama changes with the sun. The luxurious tents are equipped with everything one could possibly need to soak in the experience. The postcard views from each deck coupled with the smell of campfire and howls from the distant cliffs delight the senses. Our teens were happy campers in their tent, thrilled to have their own space and play corn hole, Jenga, tetherball, and board games in the lodge, enjoyed over hearty burgers and fries at dinner. The “surprise” s’mores were just gravy, as was chatting with fellow campers. Stargaze from your deck or overhead windows, fall asleep under the dark night sky bursting with stars in a bed you sink into, appreciating the warmth of a wood stove to keep cozy throughout the evening. Rise to impressive in-tent bathroom facilities, and wander out to grab fresh coffee and a wide array of delicious breakfast options in the main tent. This is next level glamping, which we easily dubbed our favorite night in Zion. Without question, it’s a must-stay place!

We traveled without kids, with another couple to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday. Under Canvas Zion exceeded all of our expectations. The views were breathtaking, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful in every way possible, and there was no shortage of fresh air and outdoor adventures at our disposal. The complimentary bags of ice, water filling station, and coolers for our drinks, as well as free postcards (and postage!) were definitely a special touch. They even offered a sunset hike, sunset meditation, and morning yoga - all included. One of my favorite things was to take a hot shower in the tent at the end of our long hiking days. And then there's the food. Fresh, clean eating with a fine dining touch - right down to the coffee menu. I was shocked at how not busy it was - we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves! I think this time of year or earlier would be the PERFECT time to visit, as the desert will get VERY hot and also buggy soon after this. Be sure to explore the trails around camp for a less crowded hike, but also visiting Zion National Park and the cute town around the main entrance is a must. Our only regret is that we only stayed for 3 nights - we truly didn't want to leave! Under Canvas Zion gets 5 stars for sure, and now we're curious about visiting some of their other destinations as well.
