About this property
Cozy cedar pod with stunning La Sal Mountain Views
This cozy pod are for those who want an extra layer of privacy and that woodsy cedar cabin feel. A private fenced viewing deck, hammocks, picnic table and firepit are key outdoor features each of our units offer. All our accommodations are at least 50 yards away from each other to provide maximum privacy. Inside the pod is a cozy queen bed to accommodate up to 2 people, extra blankets, lounge seating, local guide book, fan and a propane heater for cooler nights. Battery packs to charge phones.

We are a husband and wife team that purchased this land in 2020. We privately own and operate a sustainable off grid property. We proudly run our business off solar power. We have a recycling and compost program along with happy free-range, pasture raised chickens. We work to reduce waste by supporting businesses that focus on the environment, health and using non-plastic products where we can. We do not use single use plastic and provide washable cotton paper towels and hand towels. We work with locals to bring you tours, pastries, breads and hand crafted souvenirs for you to remember your trip.
Locally roasted coffee/tea delivery service and breakfast is available.
We have vintage fridge that we turned into a free library. Bring a book to swap out or take home a book to enjoy.
No pets are allowed. We do have 1 dog, Raven, and many friendly chickens.
Communal spaces are a fully equipped kitchen, grilling deck, Adirondack seating area, modern bathrooms and a cedar barrel skylight bathroom.
Bathrooms are a short distance from the tent, less than a 1 min walk.
Sauna is available by appointment to our guests.
Strong Wifi available (will not reach Sage Tent).
Astronomy tours available twice a month.
Firewood, fire starter, propane tanks (for heaters) and smores are available to purchase.
Located on private and rural land 40 mins South of Moab and 40 mins from the entrance of The Needles District of Canyonlands National Park.
We opened to our first guests in October 2020 with only 3 bell tents, 1 bathroom and a kitchen inside a tent. Even though we have grown and improved the facilities, we are still a small husband and wife owned and run business. You will see us working and cleaning. When you call, email or have questions, you will be talking with us.
We hope to welcome you!

About the host
Hosted by Keshia Joot
We are outdoor enthusiasts; love hiking, backpacking, rock climbing, paddling, mountain biking, snowboarding, etc. As we've gotten older, our pace has admittedly slowed down, but we still get out there whenever we can. We also love food, travel, music, life, our fur babies and a lot of other things.
We've been married since 2012 and best friends since 2006. In fact, it was our honeymoon in the Canyonlands National Park that inspired us to open Glamping Canyonlands, our eco-friendly, off-grid campground. If there is anything specific you'd like to know about us, just ask!
We hope we get the opportunity to meet you in the near future!

Why they chose this property
We choose this property because we cannot think of a more perfect place to live. We have traveled inside the United States and outside. If you ask me now, where is my ideal location, I would say Southern Utah. Ask me in 20 years, I would say the same. This is why I moved here.
What makes this property unique
We are surrounded by many of Utah Dark Sky Parks so stargazing and viewing the Milky Way is a dream activity. We are close to Canyonlands National Park and Arches National Park. Complimentary sauna, coffee delivery, weekly yoga and monthly astronomy tours (starting 2024) to all our guests. We are off grid but do have strong Wifi. Fully stocked kitchen and communal bathrooms with a special barrel cedar stargazing roof for a unique shower. Free range chickens supply eggs for breakfast (additional purchase). Endless views of the La Sal Mountains and Abjao Mountains. Private hammocks, picnic table, decks, outside chairs and a firepit supply you with a good relaxing outdoor time. Coolers are available to all our guests to borrow during their stay.
