Located on 10 off-grid acres near the Kaibab National Forest, Grand Canyon Glamping invites you to be immersed in the serene landscape of our Northern Arizona property. This is the native land of the Hualapai, Havasupai, Hopi, and Dine people. Awarded "Best Hipcamp in Arizona" by Outside Magazine! On our mostly untouched hillside you can disconnect from the day-to-day hustle, see local wildlife, lie back in a hammock, and have the chance to interact with the land in its unaltered form. Our number one goal is sustainability and we have built everything man-made here with that in mind. This involves using reclaimed lumber as much as possible, not building with plastics or concrete, and collecting all of our power from the sun. We hope to provide the most comfort possible while keeping the land as close to how we found it as possible. Please respect the land while you are here and the land will take care of you! We started in 2019 with a piece of untouched, hilly land, and created a natural sanctuary for mindful retreats. We now have 3 glamping yurts open half the year, a tiny A-frame cabin which is open year round, a yoga deck, a sauna and cold tub, composting bathrooms and open-air hot showers, a picnic area, and more projects in the works. You're welcome to walk around exploring to see what animals you might see! We also offer 4-day yoga retreats which run most weekends from Friday through Monday. Yoga classes, guided hikes, Reiki, massage, or sauna use are available as add-ons for any guests! Glamping is a great option for first-time campers since you don't have to buy or bring any gear! Our yurts and tiny cabin are fully furnished with comfortable beds, solar power, lights, and lots of extra blankets for those chilly mountain nights! Some listings come with a camp stove and cooking gear, or you can ask about adding on Chef Zach's famous vegetarian breakfast!

Cozy A Frame Tiny Cabin with Sauna!
Fabulous ECO Retreat
I stayed in the cute A-frame and totally loved the entire experience. The sound of wind through the Junipers was soul soothing. My hosts thought of everything: An easy to use butane stove cooked my food and coffee super fast on the table there. The hot shower was a treat and the composting toilets are clean and don’t smell. Zack was so kind to haul my stuff in his wagon up the hill to my A frame. He made several trips for me. My last morning he made me a delicious cup of coffee with his french press! I will never go to a public campground again. This place is beautiful, clean, quiet and a true back to nature experience! Make sure you bring a super warm sleeping bag. At that elevation the nights are cold. I was cozy in thermal long john’s, hat and socks in my great sleeping bag. I can’t wait to go back there. I hated to leave. I felt serene and happy out on my deck watching the birds and sipping my coffee. Thanks Zack and Carrie for providing this beautiful ECO retreat.

Great View, Even Better Owners.
There's nothing but peace and quiet out on this camp location. The stars were beautiful, the set up tents and amenities were superbly well kept, as well as Zach and Carrie being fantastic hosts. Their hospitality and flexibility provided an unforgettable experience. Definitely will be back!

Zach and Carrie were amazing hosts. Everything was explained with crystal clear perfection and the sauna was out of this world. 100 percent would stay again and recommend to anyone who asked. Felt quiet, peaceful and a nice home away from home!

Beautiful spot
Beautiful and serene little spot!! I wish we had more time to fully enjoy and appreciate the retreat but our short stay there was comfortable, clean and welcoming. Even at night the walkways are lit up with little fairy lights and you can tell that lots of love and attention has been put into the overall atmosphere. We stayed in the a frame and it was so cute and comfortable, short distance to the grand canyon. You even get little stickers in your campsite which I personally loved because I like to collect them from the places I travel! Would definitely stay here again!

Zach and Carrie have created a special place in this world. My husband and I stayed for three nights in the Aframe cabin and had the best time! I loved using the yoga deck on property, and Zach made the most delicious breakfast for us. I highly recommend staying here!

I always give a quick summary. Come here if you want chilled out hosts, a super relaxing time and generally to get away from it. Don’t come if you want luxury (and I mean that as a compliment). I was tent camping and I had a brilliant nights sleep, a brilliant breakfast and superb hosting. Thank you.

Beautiful views!! We stayed in the Mongolian yurt and it’s beautiful! The pictures don’t do this place justice. And SO Cozy! It was 29 degrees the night we stayed and we were bundled up and incredibly comfortable. They had a heater for us if we needed it. Very spacious and very kind hosts.

A truly beautiful and semi secluded spot. Camp sites were well laid out and felt off the beaten path. The surrounding views are breathtaking! I regret that I didn’t spend more than one night here.

Amazing! The A frame was perfect for us and was warm enough in 20 degree weather as long as you bundle up and put the heater on. The land is beautiful, and I highly recommend the yoga. 10/10 would stay again.

Camping with ease
Wow! Such an incredible setup! The amenities make the camping so much easier. There are marked paths to the different areas provided and still gives you a private feel. We camped at a tent spot a little off season so we brought our own tents and the deck for the tent provided space for a 6 person tent as well as a small 2 person pop-up tent while still leaving ample space for a folding table (provided), and all the equipment we brought. The hosts were very thoughtful to provide water and were readily available when needing things, such as firewood. We want to try and come back and camp at another time of the year when there are glamping tents provided in the same spots and warmer weather. Definitely a great spot!

The view was more beautiful than the photos. The yurt was far from other properties so very private. Zach and Carrie are prompt in their responses and friendly in person. The stars were amazing at night. We'd love to come back in warmer climate as the night we stayed it was below freezing so we didn't get to enjoy the outdoors that much (but the yurt itself was warm with a space heater).

Camping with a doggo!
Sauna was amazing, veiw from the patio was perfect. The large window faces east so waking up to the sunrise was awesome! We went when there was stkll a lot of snow on the ground but they provided videos so it wasnt hard finding our A frame cabin and the sauna! The pop out deck was great during the day and cozy fire at night. Friendly hosts and provided so much detail i never had a question during my stay! I would definitely recommend and come again!

This trip was great for the most part! The hosts were pretty responsive to our needs & provided us with everything we could possibly need with clear cut instructions & videos. I was also impressed with the lack of rodents & pests considering you’re smack dab in the middle of wildlife. FYI: If you happen to book this listing in the winter, definitely make sure to bring your own additional source of heating.. The heat lamp that was supplied to us was not enough to keep us warm! Even with 3 layers of clothing on, we were still freezing!! The sauna was definitely a sweet spot for this trip & made the process smoother for sure.

Zach and Carrie were very nice and helped us out when needed, they were very communicative. The A-Frame cabin was very nice and cozy, with a great view. They provide some bedding but also recommended bringing sleeping bags, which we did bring were very glad we did.

Summer only
I reserved this site with a friend excited to sleep under the stars and for the unique experience. Unfortunately the weather turned colder (snowed) and the drafty "cabin" lacks insulation or any sort of decent door seal. The heater was unable to keep up with the low 20s temperature at night and we could see our breath, but not the stars as the side wall is a wavy plastic. Sadly the cold got us in the end and we decided to find more traditional lodging the next night. Lacking a 30 day notice we were not refunded. I would not recommend this site in October.

The yurt was beautiful and on the top of a hill with an amazing view. We enjoyed the fire pit at the base of the yurt. We used the wood burning stove sauna and cold plunge bath which were close to the yurt. Carrie was down to earth and amazing. Truly memorable.

The yurt is fantastic!
The yurt is super awesome! And the bed is actually comfortable. My husband is 6’2 and I’m 5’2 and we slept on it well. It was a bit of a challenge for him to go in and out of the tiny door, but other than that we loved it. It’s also nice that it’s at the top of the property so it’s the most private spot. Zach and Carrie have made this property a special place to be and we’re very welcoming. I wish we had been able to stay long enough to use the sauna and maybe do some yoga, , , next time!

Yurt Heaven w/ Furry Friends 💙
The location and views were beautiful. The host was kind and gave a very comprehensive tour of the property and its amenities. They had a very cute information booklet with food, merch, and services you could buy/order, how they met, WiFi info (WiFi only available at the very front of property, little to no cell service) etc. The large yurt was super cozy and a nice change from all the hotels during our road trip. The mattress was extremely comfy and there were a ton of blankets available, which was perfect for the storm we got caught in during our stay. The floor inside of our yurt was a bit uneven and slanted, so I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone with mobility issues. Otherwise, everything was as advertised and very picturesque. We hope to visit again when the weather is a bit nicer, because it really was a relaxing location not too far from the Grand Canyon and other points of interest. Also, it’s dog friendly, which we were super grateful for.

Incredible what they have done with with their property. I loved my night there and enjoyed the peace that come with it. We would love to go back. If you are going to the Grand Canyon, this is only 45 minutes or so away and I highly recommend it

We enjoyed staying in the Juniper yurt on Zach and Carrie’s land. We had wild weather when we arrived, but Zach was able to help us navigate to our spot. The space and bathrooms were clean and well lit. The scenery was gorgeous and clearly well loved.

I loved my stay at the yurt. Zach and Carrie were very helpful and even though they were unable to greet us in person they sent a video with all the information that was very helpful and easy to follow. They are very eco friendly which was very cool and the other yurts were not too close to each other so you had your privacy. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay here.

Didn’t end up staying at the site since they are strict about the checkin before 10pm and we couldn’t make it in time.

We absolutely loved our experience! The Yurt was well stocked and the bedding and towels were really comfortable. They thought of everything. We really go the feel of living sustainably and enjoyed our time in the great outdoors. The yoga, ice bath, sauna, and massage were really a treat. We even got our teenagers to partake in it all. The most incredible part was the guided hike of he Grand Canyon. We will be back again!
