    Sunrise

    This was absolutely mind blowing incredible (and dog-friendly) experience! The tent was very nice and clean and the view is spectacular. You're surrounded by 360° forest/nature and there's something to be amazed at any time of day. The weather was amazing but in case it's not ideal for you, the tents have AC/heating. The gourmet food was incredible and made to order and very accommodating for dietary restrictions. Every staff member we met was extremely kind and helpful. The chickens were not very helpful but very adorable! Weather permitting, they have nightly s'mores campfires, but the sky absolutely steals the show. Being from a large city, I see pictures of starry night skies online and go uh huh, sure, these are probably enhanced, but wow, nature really puts on a spectacular show and it is humbling to experience! The staff was so awesome, pointing out constellations and bringing out their telescope. Morning at sunrise is equally visually stunning. We woke up to watching the sun turn the sky pink against the tree line and even saw a herd of elk! Breakfast was great with excellent offerings and walking and kayaking after was a nice way to round out our stay. Thanks so much to everyone at Backland for making this an unforgettable adventure! Note: It's advised to bring a vehicle that can handle uneven/unpaved road. They will send you info for navigation, which includes downloading an audio tour that will guide you to the specific area (since Google Maps will direct you elsewhere).

    @travelbackland Eco Resort is glamping at its finest, nestled amidst the ponderosa pine forests in Williams, AZ. Luxurious Escape in Nature: The spacious canvas tent suites have panoramic windows. King-sized beds ensure a comfortable night's sleep under the starlit sky. Amenities include en-suite bathroom, climate control, seating and a mini-fridge. Backland Amenities: We enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit with complimentary s'mores in the evenings, kayaking on the serene lake, nature walks, board games in the lobby, and dinners at the on-site restaurant. Each night we stargazed via the property's telescope. A spa tent is also on site. Dining Options: Complimentary continental breakfast. Boxed lunches were available for order including sandwiches and wraps. Dinners in the glass-walled restaurant featured items such as shrimp fettuccine alfredo, elote fritters, basil agave chicken salad, bison burgers and grilled trout. Grand Canyon Day Trip: Backland is located about an hour from the south rim. Witnessing the awe-inspiring natural wonder was simply unforgettable. Picnic Amongst the Past: Backland provided a delicious boxed lunch, perfect for our next adventure - Keyhole Sink. This unique geological formation offered a stunning backdrop for a picnic, surrounded by ancient petroglyphs from the Cohonina, who lived in the area from AD 700 to AD 1100. Sycamore Canyon Adventure: After lunch, we embarked on a Journey to Sycamore Canyon. The colorful cliffs were a photographer's paradise, located about 35 min from Backland. Sustainable Luxury: What truly impressed me was Backland's commitment to eco-friendly practices. From their energy-efficient tents with ecological toiletries and water conservation fixtures, to their focus on local ingredients, biodegradable plates and cups as well as composting and recycling. Overall, it's the perfect getaway in nature offering an experience that redefines the concept of glamping.

    This was our first experience glamping and it certainly set a high standard! We only stayed for less than 24 hours and as we were leaving, we all were thinking the same thing, that we should've stayed longer. With each reservation, they give very clear directions through a podcast. The app you download has GPS tracking and it'll give the next set of directions based on your location. If you arrive unprepared, you'll most likely get lost because our reception was pretty spotty. We checked into our site (there's a total of 10) and immediately began to explore the area. Right by the lobby, there's a small lake and the kayaks and paddleboards were free to be used. There's also a chest with frisbees, various sports balls, etc. The lobby has fishing rods but from what I heard, there's barely any fish...they have plans to bring in bigger ones in the future! At night, they gave all the glampers their own smores kit and even set up a telescope to look at the moon. Since we were pretty far from civilization, you could easily see constellations and faint glimpses of the Milky Way. As for the actual glamp site, we had a large one that fit two beds, a sofa bed, and a rollout bed. There was still more than enough room for a small coffee table and floor space for all of our luggage. The bathroom was spacious and plenty of hot water for the showers. The only downside is that the bathroom space isn't fully enclosed so everyone hears everything in the bathroom. They're all fitted with a mini-split AC that kept our room at a bearable temperature. There is a fridge but it's tiny so don't expect to store much. Highly recommend if you're able to spend a couple of days here! We didn't get a chance to hike around the area and I think you can even go horseback riding. It's a nice break from setting everything up to having everything set up by someone else.

    Backland gets to be one of the top destinations in the US. This place is magical The trek in is about 30 minutes and there is an audio they provide so you won't get lost. It feels like you may be lost but enjoy the beautiful scenery and view. It's incredible! Once you get to the compound, the layout of the land is really cool. We ended up in #1 which was the only open reservation and it's also Ada compliant. The rooms are fun and equipped with stylish and quality furniture. The layout is straightforward and functional with a spectacular view. Everything is thoughtfully and carefully designed/chosen. Dinner reservation must be made as the food is made to order with freshest of ingredients. The lobby/cafeteria is a cute building right next to the lake and common area. The view again is spectacular!!! The food is the kicker here.... Every bite of food I put into my mouth was heavenly. This is no ordinary cook in the kitchen. The flavors are so sophisticated and purposeful, and the ingredients are good stuff. We have tried the charcuterie board, radicchio salad, cano salad, arugula salad, mole steak (twice), burger, and the cookie + vanilla bean Ice cream in the cast iron. Everything was yummy!!!! The last day, it ended up snowing out of nowhere but it really added to the trip and made it so special. So special that we ended up getting engaged here at Backland Glamping in Williams, Arizona! We look forward to visiting again soon!

    Loved our stay at Backland! And loved that it is doggie friendly. The staff is friendly and professional. Chase is really helpful and knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to make sure guests are comfortable. We definitely recommend staying here if you need a getaway in nature away from the hustle and bustle of daily work life . Just know that Wi-Fi is not great inside the tents but we did not mind disconnecting for a bit and truly relaxing. We will definitely be back again.

The staff is really friendly. Everyone had a smile on their face and constantly said hello. It was very welcoming. The Trail house and art studio are great additions to the property. You can't take art classes or rent equipment for hikes or bike rides. In both spaces the people are very knowledgeable. Food choices are good. They have coffee shop with a variety of snacks and a couple restaurants. The pool is nice and the tennis bc outta and pickleball courts couldn't have a more scenic view. The Bad - The rooms are pretty dated. They need an upgrade at those prices. I had a patio to sit on but didn't have any chairs on the patio so I couldn't really use it. The room was dark and dim. No soft close toilet seat. Bathroom products were pretty average. Food prices are out of control. I realize it's a resort and we are a captive audience, bit please don't make things grossly overpriced. Don't pay for a private biking tour. Go yourself. The prices for those are outrageous. Download All Trails and go it on your own. Otherwise homes are going to run you $350 per person. That's just not worth it unless you middle name is "moneybags".

My sister ordered the special pork chops which were served with just a hint of sauce. I was afraid they might be too bland but was I wrong - the meat was so tender and flavorful that it really held its own. I had the bison burger which is served with smoked Gouda & roasted red peppers on a fresh baked whole wheal roll. All I can say is I've been ruined for every other hamburger now for the rest of my life. Our server was perfectly attentive, knowledgeable and pleasant. The owner stopped by & answered all our questions about their plans for the health spa that is almost complete. The atmosphere is upscale with an equestrian vibe that is perfectly suited to the locale. Our recently renovated rooms are lovely. I can't wait to come back soon and spend a week or so at the spa!!!

Absolutely elite. Our atrium had the most incredible view from its rooftop and even from within. See photos. The restaurant 1. ORDER THE CHOCOLATE CAKE. I promise you it's heavenly. (your on vacation, it's fine! Do it!) Breakfast was included with our stay, and we enjoyed almost every item on it (ha). We have some dietary restrictions (no pork), and they were very accommodating with substitutes. We enjoyed the dinner without surprise, they also knocked that out of the park! Highly recommend

However, when we initially arrived, the young front desk agent with red hair appeared to be on a personal phone call. She ended the call by saying "I love you," which made it seem like it may have been a conversation with a friend. After the call she greeted us, but throughout the interaction she seemed unsure and a bit confused about the information she was giving. I would strongly suggest additional training on customer service and job knowledge to ensure guests feel welcomed and confident in the information they receive. Especially at a property where guests are paying around $1,000 a night, first impressions and professionalism are very important. Aside from that initial front desk experience, everything else about our stay was wonderful.
