This land has been in our family for four generations to graze our herd of sheep. We renovated our camps to provide a comfortable glamping space to those who want a one-of-a-kind experience in the backcountry. One of our best features is the solitude and exposure to Mother Nature. Here, you won't find quiet hours, disruptive campers, or noise and light pollution. These sites provide the ultimate experience for those willing to go off the grid, off the main road, and into the backcountry. This space is where the tourist crowds disappear and the rugged, raw beauty appears. As the crow flies, the property is just over three miles from the east boundary of Zion National Park. This land is where our family calls home and has been in the Lundgren family for four generations. It is still used for agriculture purposes today. In early June, you may see sheep grazing in the nearby meadows and mid-to-late summer, cows roam the area adding to the uniqueness of the experience. This part of the country is home to textured red rock, blue skies, and numerous desert flora and fauna, making it an ideal spot for photographers. Some of the animals you might spot include owl, bear, mountain lion, bobcat, deer, coyote, turkey, snakes, lizards, as well as many different types of birds. There is very little light pollution making the night sky dazzling and unforgettable.

Jen’s sheep farm glamping set up is the perfect place to get away from it all, without feeling like you’re in the middle of nowhere when it comes to things you need. The set up is perfect. The bed is comfortable, her communication was great, it’s private with a stunning backdrop, and has everything you need! She did such a great job with the cooking set up, as well as the shower and bathroom facilities. We stayed here while spending a bit of time in Zion it’s about a 40 minute drive to the park entrance, so it was perfect I hope to come back again and again!

For us, the host, the people in the community, and the location made it a perfect ending to a great trip. You can go out and adventure or you can stay back and just relax. Tents were very spacious and clean. Beds were great to sleep in, so we stayed and relaxed mostly. Thanks for hosting us. We had the best time.
