Arguably the best campsite I’ve ever stayed at. We will definitely be back!! We loved how remote it was.

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!

I loved staying at Jen’s sheep camp! She has thought of everything you might need! The camp was great and the views were just incredible. It was amazing to get to see the sheep, too!

Zion Backcountry Sheep Camps
I could see the milky way! There's almost no light pollution. The host thought of everything, the camp is incredibly comfortable. I loved being far enough out of the way that we essentially didn't see any people while we were there. I'd stay again in a heartbeat.

We stayed in a range of places while exploring southern Utah - from hotels to bnbs. This was by our favorite stay. Jen had thought about everything you could ever need for a complete - or even elevated - glamping experience. The best dark sky as well - we saw multiple shooting stars so clearly alongside the Milky Way-, since we were surrounding mountain ranges that blocked any chance of light pollution even from a distance. Plus the shower pressure and temp were surprisingly outstanding. Would stay again and for longer! We got there alright about an hour before sunset in the 2wd sedan the rental company “upgraded” us to but the road is definitely a faster ride in full day light and with 4wd.

where to begin?! this was heaven on earth. jen payed attention to and perfected every little detail. the shower was magical. the toilet was adorable. the actual camper was so cozy and sweet. the property was so peaceful, the surrounding landscape serene. i could’ve stayed here forever, watching the humming birds play and soaking every moment up.
everything was clean and beautiful, i couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
don’t hesitate, just book with jen. i promise you will not regret it!

What a special place! The views of the cliffs, the solitude, the care that Jen puts into making this unique space extra-special shows. But when the hummingbird landed on my wife's hand.....that put it over the top. We only had 1 nightand wish we could have explored around for longer. We didn't have time for a campfire, but we put a couple sticks in the stove (already cut) and that took the chill out of the 40 degree air for the night.

To be offered the chance to spend time on this land and in this way, simple but perfectly thought out, is a gift. It is a rare opportunity to feel really away from lights and intrusions. If you enjoy that kind of experience then make the effort to spend a little time at Jen's beautiful family camp. We came away very happy we had gotten to do so.

We loved staying at Jen's property for a two night stint. It's a bit of a long bumpy ride to get there but the destination is totally worth it. It genuinely feels like you're truly disconnected from the grind of daily life, surrounded by the sounds of nature and the dazzling stars at night. There are a ton of thoughtful touches throughout the property and it's very well appointed with plenty of options to prepare meals or to pass the time with games or by the campfire. The outdoor shower was also amazing! I highly recommend staying here and would love to visit again.

Extremely charming location and setup! This was the perfect place to luxuriate while still sort of “roughing it” after backpacking the Under the Rim Trail in Bryce Canyon. Loved the trailer. Loved the shower. LOVED the bathroom. Everything we needed was there. Highlights included watching the hummingbirds over breakfast and stargazing in the big meadow. Super easy to do a day trip to Zion (highly recommend riding a bike up the scenic drive). Jen was extremely responsive to an issue that came up due to user error. 10/10 highly recommend

What an exquisite and extraordinary place. Everything was perfection. It is a long and bumpy road, but all the better for it. We were entirely at home and the facilities could not have been better appointed. I only regret I didn’t bring some coffee along with me because the site came equipped with a very nice gooseneck kettle, I would’ve loved to have used to make some pour over coffee.

We had a great time at the Sheep Camp! It's a rare combination of an isolated, peaceful location with some nice amenities that make your experience very relaxing. This is a great spot for stargazing and sitting around the campfire.
Jen helped with any questions/directions and there were clear instructions on how to use everything available at the camp. We'd hope to come back sometime again in the future.

This location is unquestionably a hidden gem. We really enjoyed our time here. I cannot recommend this place highly enough! Jen sent an incredibly thorough welcome information email and pamphlet that gave us confidence in using all of the camp's off-grid amenities. She also gave specific recommendations for the surrounding areas. I highly recommend booking if you want tranquility or amazing hiking. This site is also dog friendly. Our dogs were overjoyed since they got a nice large area to roam around in as their own backyard.
The camp was spotless and equipped with everything we needed. We were sorry to have to go, but we hope to return!

Staying at Jen’s place felt like a dream. Instructions to get to the camp were clear and easy to follow. Word of advice- download directions on your phone ahead of time on google maps! Felt like we were on our own planet! The camper was clean and stocked with everything we needed to cook a meal, have drinks and make coffee. The outdoor shower was fabulous, as well as the camping chairs and hammocks. We got to check out the hiking trails with stunning views. I will DEFINITELY be back. Words cannot describe how amazing this place is- you just have to see it for yourself. Amazing amazing amazing!

What a magical place that can’t be recommended enough. Jen is an excellent communicator and has thoughts of every little thing. This is definitely on the more glamping side of camping considering everything Jen has carefully put together at the sheep camps. We spent tonight in the silver camp and had the whole campground for ourselves. The warm shower and the toilets (with a view!) were super comfortable and the camp had everything we needed. We went out to Zion park to hike on one day (drive distance is okay, 1h20 max) but made sure we had enough time to chill and enjoy the grounds at Jen’s camp. It was amazing to play corn hole with all the hummingbirds flying around.

We really enjoyed the peaceful solitude this campsite provided. All we could see and hear was nature all around is for as far as the eye could see. Plenty of shade under the trees on sunny hot afternoon and a warm shower in the evening. 3 stoves and a BBQ to choose from. Even the vault toilet had an amazing view 😆. AT&T signal was low but worked.

The most beautiful and well-thought out camp site. Host was communicative and helpful. The site itself is well equipped with lots of attention to details. Definitely recommend for a fun and comfortable camping adventure with stunning views.

Jen was such a gracious host and the property was beautiful. The facilities and amenities were everything we could have asked for and the hammocks were wonderful. It was slightly farther from Zion than we anticipated but that’s because we did the Subway and my friend and I both agreed it was completely worth the time. I will be staying here again and can’t say enough about how restful it was being off grid.

My group had an amazing time camping at the sheep farm! Jen was thoughtful and checked in along the way, which was helpful ahead of our weekend trip to Zion. She made sure the wagons were stocked with the essentials, and we all agreed that the land was truly so special. I would highly recommend camping here if you and your group are comfortable with a more remote setting (e.g., driving on unpaved roads, limited cell service, etc.). Thanks for helping make our reunion trip so memorable, Jen!

The sheep wagon had every thing you need for a stay. She provided firewood and we had a fire each night to make food. The sheep wagon had games, kitchen supplies and utensils, and it was nice and clean. The outdoor shower was really cool and the outhouse was stocked as well. Perfect glamping experience. Although, I would definitely recommend a higher clearance vehicle! It’s down a long windy dirt road, but the views are so cool! No sheep though.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! All I can say is WOW! If you have the opportunity to stay here, you absolutely MUST! We were overjoyed to stay in this sheep camp, as it was exceptionally unique, private, comfortable, and detail-oriented. Our host, Jen, left a lovely note for us, fresh flowers from the meadow, and plenty of clean towels/cozy blankets! It was so special to read her scrapbook about their family history in sheep herding. I browsed photos from several decades ago, and read about the first hand experiences of the camp we were staying in, truly an unforgettable experience. The outdoor shower was incredible, it felt so good to get a hot water shower while watching the sun set in the distance. The camp was equipped with games, all cooking essentials, and even a bluetooth speaker! There was plenty of firewood for us to use, and the campfire under the stars was just perfect. The mountain ranges that you can see from the camp are unbelievable. Our dog loved running around and exploring the meadow without any limits. Thank you for sharing this little slice of heaven!

What a fantastic stay! I can't say enough! I wholeheartedly recommend the Sheep Camps. You will not be sorry. The location and the seclusion were magical. The facilities were impeccable. Jen took care of every detail to make this stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. Jen's attention to detail allowed my daughter and I to truly enjoy the Zion experience. This included a back history to the place that provided a beautiful personal touch. I will be returning.

There was a huge rainstorm on what was suppose to be our first day there so we had to cancel our first day and stay at a hotel until the storm was done. It would have been impossible to drive to the camp site in this storm or even shortly after the storm. The weather permitted us to drive to our campsite the following day and all I can say is pure beauty. It was a pleasure to be Jen’s property and get away from all the city ruckus. We will def be returning in the future. Thank you Jen for being an awesome communicator and helping us enjoy our time away.
