This is by far one of the coolest accomodations that I have ever experienced. The stargazing tent is simply phenomenal. Staff service was also phenomenal and the shared accomodations like group seating area, restaurant and bar was quite nice! Well done!

Under Canvas Lake Powell was a perfect family getaway from the big city while still having basic modern amenities (bed, toilet, shower, food restaurant, good drinks)! My kids (6 and 4) loved having so much space to run around, play and explore. Definitely will be adding another Under Canvas location into our future adventures. It’s the perfect level of “camping” for us at this point in our lives.

Our experience here has been the best compromise for me and my wife. My wife surprised me for my birthday by meeting up with some of our best friends to accompany us. The accommodations were simple, yet elegant. We love the beds, yert and the wood fire heater. All of the excursions through the customer service were a blast. The staff on site were extremely friendly and helpful with all of our needs. Lastly, the food and drinks were absolutely delicious. Every night offered a dinner special, and it did not disappoint especially hesting by a campfire outside under the stars. We look forward to our next adventure at another Under the Canvas in other states.

O local é incrível!! Porém, como fomos em outubro, pegamos frio e muiiito vento na barraca, o wue faz um barulho muito grande.. outro ponto negativo é nao ter opções de refrigerantes. Também o banheiro é o ponto fraco! Vc não tem energia e a bateria das lâmpadas dura pouco tempo. O chuveiro nao aquece a agua e você toma banho gelado no meio de muiiito vento! Vale a experiência se você for em pleno verão ou se amar o frio congelante!

I enjoyed a wonderful weekend away with some girlfriends a few weeks back and can't stop thinking about it! The site was absolutely gorgeous - and my stay was perfect. Each tent was comfortable, cozy, and was the most wonderful home away from home for the 4 days I was there. The staff was exceptional, warm, and friendly throughout, and the food and drinks were delicious and worth every penny. I enjoyed exploring a slot canyon right on the property and was amazed to see as many stars as I did each night, Top all of this off with free s'mores and cozy firepits each night, craft projects, and views for miles...it was a vacation to remember. I can't wait to come back!
