My boyfriend and I stayed at Under Canvas Moab for two nights this June, and it was the most memorable hotel experience I've ever had. Our tent faced Arches National Park, and waking up to those views each morning was unforgettable. We stayed in an accessible tent, which was spacious, comfortable, and had convenient parking right next to it. The tent was a little warm at bedtime, but it cooled down nicely as the night went on. The amenities were wonderful. We loved grilling dinner, making complimentary s'mores every evening, and enjoying fresh coffee each morning. The staff was incredibly kind and always happy to provide us with ice or a cooler whenever we needed one. The nightly activities made our stay even more special. We enjoyed the bookmark-making activity, and the "Star-bathing Meditation" with Monika the most peaceful experience. We spent an hour lying on a rock, meditating under an incredible sky full of stars. It was so relaxing, and Monika made the experience unforgettable. We also spent hours stargazing from the hammocks. The night sky at Under Canvas Moab is absolutely breathtaking. The views are unlike anything we've ever experienced, and we would absolutely stay here again. I highly recommend Under Canvas Moab to anyone visiting the area! read more

The noise from the 191 is loud, incessant and unbearable. From the winding road, the tents are less than 1/5 mile from the highway, so in fact they are even closer. For Under Canvas to choose this location and then not to to disclose how loud - and constant- the traffic noise is... is disingenuous at best. The industrial level earplugs they leave at your bedside indicate their awareness of the problem, but you can even hear the traffic through those - though it is muted - and the noise ruins just sitting outside in nature and looking at the stars. Imagine being on a motel off the freeway with the windows open the entire time, and you get the picture. For them to charge the prices they do for this location is literally highway robbery... and you are practically right over the highway. So much for peace and quiet around the campfire at night -- the free s'mores cannot undo the damage to the ambiance of having cars and semi trucks constantly screaming by. Such a disappointment. read more

Hmmm. I'm comparing it to other under the canvas. This is one of the originals ! The price point is very expensive and this property well our room 41 was situated off the major highway ! Can't enjoy the Starrs and The blue skies. The rooms tent is very loose. Even the toilet was wobbly ,up most of the night by road noise such as trucks downshifting and air brakes. Then the pillows are so so bad. Not park Hyatt nor even a Hyatt place. The cost we paid was of the level of category 8 and received nothing but a $20 dollar credit. This product isn't in line with globalist level perks. Note please ask for a room away from the highway. Also the room I booked showed a sofa and did not receive the level I was booked in. I highly recommend the lake Powell under the canvas. They are a better well run property w /on sight restaurant! read more

I see all of the 9 and 10 star reviews and I would have to concur that I did like this place but I would never recommend anyone to stay here for two reasons.... IT IS LOCATED RIGHT NEXT TO A HIGHWAY AND THERE ARE 18 WHEELERS GOING BY ALL NIGHT. They issue ear plugs if you're questioning how noisy is it. AND THE PRICE WAS $1350 FOR TWO NITES. The tents were assets we but quite simple and basic and for this price you need a lot more GLAM IN THE GLAMPING! YOU CAN DO MUCH BETTER FOR THAT PRICE TAG. FYI...Both Bryce NP and Zion NP were significantly lower prices that were posted on line. Buyers remorse for me on this one. read more

We'd love to give this location 5 stars just based on the staff (Sarah, Molly, and Jess). They went above & beyond to accommodate and ensure we had an incredible stay in which we did. When we checked in we were greeted by Sarah with her infectious positive attitude. She carefully explained the amenities, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, espresso bar, small breakfast offering, items available to borrow/take- coolers, to-go ice and for later that night: s'more kits for the outdoor fire pit. She escorted us to our room & carefully explained all the room features and tips/tricks for the shower, zipper windows, wood burning stove. Our tent (deluxe tent) was as we imagined in the pictures. Showered worked great (one tug until it timed out or I shut it off). They have an on demand tankless water heater so give it a minute for water to come out hot. What else we loved about the staff: Sarah recommended the must -sees in the Arch area. Molly recommended additional hikes in the area and when it was our time to depart/ check out, Jess recommended a scenic route along the Colorado river to get to Interstate -70. What we loved about the location- dark sky certified, unbelievable views from our tent, close to Arches entrance, and downtown Moab. Heads up - this location is off the Highway which means you can hear the trucks throughout the night. They do provide ear plugs. My personal recommendation is bring your own brand that you know works best. I love the Mack brand. I did not hear a thing all night long. Additional heads up- the weather. Friendly reminder, if it's hot outside your tent will most likely be hot. They do provide small fans & you can open the windows to get cross breeze. The weather changes and so does the inside of your tent. From hot in the day to cold at night, be prepared. My only complaint- even though the bed was comfortable with nice sheets & pillows, my side of the bed was pretty worn out with a significant depression in it that I referred to as the crater. This was the only evidence that this facility has been here a while. read more

I absolutely loved my stay with Under Canvas Moab! Only a short drive from one of the desert's most visited national parks, Arches, this is a great immersive experience for glamping in the desert. I had the tent with private bathroom, which was very helpful and I recommend as it is a little bit of a walk to the shared facility from some sites. It includes a flushing toilet and running water in the sink, and a camp style shower which runs by pulling the chain while you need it (so it is not continuous flow, for conservation). I visited during the spring and the temperatures were already in triple digits during the day, so being able to cool off with the water was essential. The service team was friendly and prompt, facilities were well maintained. There is cell service at the site and facilities are open 24/7. The front office gave me a phone number to text or call for anything needed throughout the night such as extra towels. They also drive golf cars all around and can help transport you across the grounds. The absolute highlight was being able to experience the beautiful stars in the sky since there is no light pollution. Overall, I will absolutely recommend under canvas for anyone wanting to experience camping in Moab with some comforts. Just make sure you pack all your food and provisions since the options onsite are very limited. read more

We loved the location so close to arches and literally across the highway from Canyon-lands. Stunning views from our porch. Good music nightly and attentive staff. This is glamping. And the first night was a wonderful thunderstorm at night. We loved every minute. ( the site is Right off the highway so there is highway noise). Cozy bed and lovely wood stove kept our tent cabin perfect for reading lookout g out on the Mesa! read more

TLDR: We were so disappointed with Under Canvas Moab that we booked other accommodations for our stay in Moab, in spite of losing our money on the remainder of our booking with them. Be warned: Urban Canvas has no way to address the insane heat of a Moab summer. They do have misters (ours was broken). They also have small battery powered fans in the tents. One of our two fans was broken (not that it helped much in 100+ degree heat). The heat is truly unsafe. Heat stroke and dehydration are real possibilities, especially after a day of activities in Moab. We actually just stayed in our car with AC until evening when it would cool down a little bit. Cell service is spotty at best and of course, there's no wifi. Our first night there, we were swarmed by biting ants in our bed. No food in the room. The solution was to douse the inside of our small tent with chemicals and offer a 10% discount on our stay (that they never delivered on - they said because we booked through a 3rd party). It didn't get cool enough to sleep until about 12AM and the ant attack happened at 3AM. We stayed out on the patio after the chemical dousing and didn't get any more sleep. We were out. We booked new accommodations and just accepted the loss. We did attempt to cancel our booking about a week out, but Urban Canvas was not willing to cancel or make any changes to our booking. One other thing to mention, this property is right on a major highway and the noise is so bad that the hotel gives you ear plugs at check-in. We were too hot to sleep or notice the noise, so it wasn't a factor, but thought it was worth a mention. The cost of this stay was in the premium or luxury range. Customer service and accommodations were below one star. I've stayed at better Motel 6s. We've stayed in many "glamping" hotels, before, including one right next door to Urban Canvas and have always really enjoyed the service and facilities. This was miserable. Don't make the same expensive mistake we made. read more

I really Loved this place. The tent and amenities were great but we had 2 major issues. One was fixable and 1 wasn't. 1. Our bed squeaked with every move. By the time we payed down, we were too tired to complain. 2. The location is beautiful but the road noise was intolerable! It ruined the feeling of being in the wilderness with nature fir me! They supplied ear plugs but they were no use. All night long the trucks were so loud that there wasn't a minute of peace. I wanted to hear wilderness or crickets not the drone of 18 wheelers. So sad. I loved the concept and would definitely do this again but I'd check it out a little closer next time. If you are deaf or like loud road noise this place is for you! read more

Under Canvas Moab - The morning sunrise was the best. - Campgrounds Near Me - Moab, Utah

Under Canvas - Moab was a great experience, especially for our first time glamping. We were there in April and there was a wind advisory out. The reception tent is gorgeous with sitting areas to hang out and free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate for you to take (all just generic stuff). On particular days they will have live music or yoga in the morning and smores every night by sunset. The live music was very serene at sunset. There are different fire pits available with one main one but they are 1-2 others you can ask them to fire up if you'd like social distancing. One weird thing is that we asked (one couple) and one staff member said no because of the wind, but another group (family) asked and they said yes... OK whatever. The smores packet were also pretty cheap IMO with some not even having hershey chocolates but like mini snickers or 3 musketeers. The tent was really specious, which great lounging chairs and it was really easy to use the wood fire stove for warmth. There's a very comfortable king size bed with 5 or so pillows! There's communal bathrooms (each stall has a shower and toilet) that was very clean and upscale for glamping. Fresh towels in the first door for you to grab as well. You can hear everything so it was so important to wear ear plugs when sleeping because the the wind was crazy that night and whoosh all over the canvas tent. The price is high and I think the value is so/so. Our main driver of staying here was the close proximity to Arches National Park and having the ability to see the stars which we could only see at 3-4AM (woke up from the wind) but were glorious. read more

We had stayed at Under Canvas Grand Canyon and found it to be excellent before spending a night here. Had we spent a night here first, we would not have booked at another location. Before we elaborate on the negatives, let's identify a few positives: visually breathtaking surroundings; amply provided cooling neck cloths; free fruit and icees; s'mores with Reese's cups; very pleasant receptionist; staggering views of the night sky; reasonably clean tent; good espresso for purchase at the reception area in the morning along with free coffee and tea provisions. Given all those positives, why the negatives? No restaurant, only grab and go foods (therefore, texts sent to guests before check in should mention this as a reminder to eat or stock up beforehand); our tent did not include the very important battery chargers for lamps and fans and we had to specially request these, which were supposed to have been provided; our shower did not run warm at all, although the sink faucet did run warm water; mouse droppings were present 3 ft from the bed (this is especially hazardous in an area where Hanta virus is endemic); some staff seemed inadequately familiar with the layout of the property, which led to parking confusion; signage on property pointing to various numbered tents is inadequate; loud noise from nearby highway; cooling misters automatically shut off while it was still hot as balls outside and therefore inside the tent as well. Overall, it was a halfway decent experience, a little too close to camping when it was meant to be glamping, and therefore should have been a good deal cheaper. read more

My first visit to Under Canvas Moab happened to be planned right at the start of the pandemic, so I cut it short and opted to cash out my remaining night as a voucher instead of a refund. The staff was extremely accommodating and understanding during that time, and I'm glad to see nothing has changed. Our 2.0 experience this time around was just unforgettable. First let me say it's the best night sleep you'll ever have in the desert. I can't speak highly enough of the beds. It's like you're the stick inside of a gooey fire-roasted marshmallow. Fuzzy and floofy blankets engulf you. The wood burning stove and flushing toilets/hot showers inside the tent make it a cozy and comfortable refuge. If the adventures in the surrounding Moab desert weren't so enticing, I would've stayed in that bed all day! As for the customer service at Under Canvas, it is above and beyond. The staff is personable, knowledgeable about the area, and just happy to be there. I showed up to find that someone on staff had complimentarily upgraded me from a Safari tent to a suite! What an incredible surprise! They also organize fun (and complimentary) camp activities like stargazing, s'mores by the fire, and live music. We partook in all of these great offerings. I do wish the stargazing guide knew a bit more about astronomy, but we got to see some cool stars and planets regardless. We enjoyed all the resort had to offer. I look forward to visiting Under Canvas again. Im considering making it an annual trip. If you're looking for a memorable, luxurious glamping adventure in a spectacular area, I recommend Under Canvas Moab! read more

We just visited and had such an incredible trip!!! Moab is spectacular and a stay at Under Canvas is well worth it. The crew at Under Canvas Moab is amazing! They went above and beyond to make sure our visit was perfect. We arrived very late on a Friday and the night staff helped us get settled quickly and easily. After a long day of traveling with small children this was so helpful. Not only did we receive a warm welcome but they helped us get unpacked and settled in for the night. The next day they were on hand to help answer every and all questions for us. They have a vast, insider knowledge of the area and helped with tons of recommendations. We felt like we were staying with friends but also kind of like we had the place to ourselves. It was perfect! The location of the property is ideal for adventures all over Moab. It's at the doorsteps of Arches and very close to all that Canyonlands has to offer. It's not right in town but close enough if you need supplies, or want to go shopping or grab a meal. The property faces palisades on one side with a spectacular view of the desert and the La Sal mountains on the other. The first night we arrived they were sold out (we got the last tent) it was a Safari Tent (number 16.) That night was chilly and it was just fun to make a fire. For the next two nights we got a Deluxe Tent (number 10.) We were happy with the Safari but if you can upgrade to a Deluxe it's well worth it! The Deluxes are slightly more secluded and have a toilet, sink, and pull handle shower. The shower is not a 5 star luxury tub-combo deal (because you're camping) but if you have ever camped without a shower you know what a luxury it is to take a hot shower at the end of day. The bed in the tents was surprisingly comfortable and warm. Our kids slept on cots and they were perfect. Sleeping bags and everything we needed were already in the tent, plus the cots have insulated bottoms to keep you warm. We brought our own blankets and that was nice. The tent got warm during the day but we opened the flaps and got a cross breeze. If you can Tent 10 is where celebrities like Neil Young and Matthew McConaughey have stayed while visiting. Chances are whichever tent you're in your going to feel like a celebrity. Here are the negatives: the property is not right in town so you will need to drive. However, this is also a pro because it's truly more of a wilderness experience and the town of Moab can be really busy. The property is also on a busy road. The road did not bother us at all but it is something to consider. You can hear it. Also, if you are not prepared to be camping Under Canvas is not for you. You are in a tent. You will hear the wind and temperatures are whatever it is outside. We were prepared to be camping and LOVED the experience!!! Last negative is that you are most likely going to hear people at some point while you're in your tent. This is NOT a hotel. It's a group camping situation but it sure beats a regular tent. I can't say enough great things about this place and surrounding area. We are already planning a return visit to Moab as well as some of their other locations!!!! P.S. set your alarm for the spectacular sunrises. Also keep your eyes peeled at night for shooting stars across the sky. read more

It's a nice glamping place but don't stay in summer unless you can tolerate 100+F heat during the day with minimal breeze. The rents don't have power outlet, no WiFi in the facility. Good for fAll weather tho you can sit outside by the fire pit and have your own little fireplace inside the tent. I'm here on a hot summer in July when it's 102F outside, the mist system doesn't work when I arrived. Tent provides one portable charger, one table fan and one table lamp. No WiFi and share communal bathroom. I would come back for cooler weather. read more

We arrived at under canvas Moab for a wedding. The backdrop could not have been more beautiful & the staff were so friendly & attentive. I am not a camper & tend to prefer air conditioning & electricity, but I have to say the this was a great trip. I arrived not feeling my best, not sure if it was the heat, altitude, or lack of sleep, but the staff could not have been more accommodating. Kendal, especially, help us get to our tent & even checked on us a few hours later. The tent was clean and the bed very comfortable, the views were spectacular. I thought the little touches were great. There was no refrigeration in the tents, but they provided use with coolers & all the ice we needed. I loved the misters on the porch. There was an endless supply of water to fill our water bottles in the office/reception area & a cooler with cold towels to help cool you down. If you wish to shower, make you do it early in the morning or late in evening. The water gets pretty hot in the middle of the day but we were given plenty of warning about that before hand. All & all it was a fabulous trip that I would highly recommend. read more

If you haven't gone glamping yet you are definitely missing out. I wasn't sure what to expect when looking up Under Canvas Moab but I had done tons of research on camping in the area and it was clear to see that glamping aka glamorous camping was the way to go to enjoy the Moab desert in a different way than ever experienced. It all started with check in, where as soon as you drove up there was a person sitting outside of a rather large tent with a smile. She gave us a big cheese and waved. As we approached the staff was super friendly directing us into the big tent for check in. The big tent was decorated very warm and inviting and we received the full run down about camp. They also told us that we had arrived just in time to join the free and included guided nature hike through the desert. Our welcome staffer also guided us to our private safari tent which included a king size bed, dresser and chair. The thing we were most excited to see were two large industrial battery charges for our electronics. This was a great touch and really allows you to take pictures of the beauty that surrounds you. We got to wake up and enjoy a hot air balloon as we sipped our morning drinks. We enjoyed a hike around the entire area and learned about the specialness of the Moab desert and we even got to hang around the fire and meet new friends when the staff provided late night s'mores for everyone. The grills are easy to get to for cooking and they even include covered areas for eating - but beware of spiders and bring light - there wasn't very much light and we cooked after the sunset hike. Lastly one note to make unless you get a deluxe tent the bathrooms are smaller with tiny showers. But it was a fun experience of brushing teeth outside with a beautiful view - just bring flip flops for showers and you will be fine. The site provides a great towel tent for linens. read more

I really wanted to like Under Canvas. Like really really really wanted to like it. The photos are stunning, and I planned my trip to Moab months in advance specifically to stay here. But the photos don't match with the reality, and the experience was incredibly overpriced. The positives: The people working here were so friendly and the vibe was cute. When the sunlight hit, it looked pretty through the lens of my phone camera. The negatives: It just wasn't as advertised. Our tent backed up to the highway, and it's all I heard as opposed to the expected nature sounds. The shower stalls smelled funny, and the water from the shower flooded the whole room -- toilets, garbage, and all. The bed was wickedly uncomfortable, and I woke up hourly throughout the night. Never had this happen in my life. Our tent floor (carpet on top of tent lining) had weird stains only a few weeks into the season, and it really grossed me out. Lastly, the wood flooring in the photos was nowhere to be found, neither inside the tent, or the front stoop. When we ate on the floor for dinner, it was hard and uncomfortable earth -- again, straight up like camping. Some other recent reviews on TripAdvisor seemed to echo what I experienced. Maybe something changed with this year's setup? Even just better expectations would have made the experience better. But Under Canvas Moab is not delivering a $400/night glamping experience. And unfortunately, I won't be staying here again. read more

Stayed here during our visit to Arches National Park. My wife did extensive research and found Under Canvas. At first we were somewhat hesitant due to having young children and technically "camping". However we were extremely pleased with their Deluxe Canvas Tent. Upon arriving we were met with their staff and driven to our canvas in a golf cart. We were delighted by their clean linens, towels and bathroom/shower. Only reason I am not giving this location 5 stars is due to also visiting their Zion location and being even better and newer. Only negative would be that the actual canvas was a little older and worn down, zipper on the canvas was a little faulty. Nothing that would stop me from returning. read more

We had an amazing experience here! We were in Moab to elope at Canyonlands National Park and after checking in late at night we were greeted with a flower display and a postcard from the Under Canvas staff congratulating us. The site was clean, the facilities were great we stayed in a deluxe tent. We didn't get a chance to enjoy all the extra fun stuff like s'mores and all the different games but they looked great! I would love to highlight the employee that checked us out. He told me his name but I unfortunately can't recall it. But I guess it was his first day (5/25) and we brought a floor length mirror that ended up breaking (no surprise) but he was willing to take it off our hands and dispose of it so that we didn't have to make our 10 hour drive back home. And he said if Under Canvas couldn't dispose of it that he would do it himself. Wow! Talk about above and beyond! He mentioned his sister managed another Under Canvas location (Zion, I believe), so I'm sure the great service may run in the family. Thank you guys for a great experience and a good way to enjoy my elopement trip! *Picture we're after our stay, trust me the place was pristine when we arrived! read more

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I first got here- sure, I had seen all the photos on Yelp and their website, but never having gone glancing before, this was something new for me. Other than checkin, I didn't really have any interaction with the staff, but they were very friendly, greeting us with freshly made snow cones as we walked in. The main tent was cool and refreshing as there were misters on everywhere. We went for a safari tent which had a king bed. The size of the tent was perfect, and I was appreciative of the battery chargers they put on the night stands so your phone is charged to take photos of the great scenery. The proximity to the highway was a little bothersome to me- all night long I'd hear truck engines, but got used to it after a while. A note, unless you're doing the deluxe tent that has its own bathrooms, you get airline style cramped facilities in the center of the camp. Bring flip flops when you go to take a shower- as they're used by so many people, guessing it's hard to keep them clean. read more

Under Canvas - Under Impressed. Great idea failed execution on may levels. Don't go off of the descriptions and pictures on their site. On the site they show you cabins that look great with no other nearby tents. They show you cabins with wood flooring and entry decking. The reality is dingy carpeting on the interiors, no outside deck on our tents and tents so close to each other that you can not only hear your neighbors fart but you can small it too. Pros: 1)Friendly staff. 2) ok beds 3).... Cons: 1) Location: The property is located no farther from the freeway than a highway rest area. The highway in front of the property is on a downhill grade so you hear all the tractor trailers breaking with their engines. The road noise is intense and destroys any feeling you are out in nature. The freight train sounds like it runs through camp as Well. No clue why they would have this be there location with all the open space in the area. Ya, would rather not wear ear plugs when Im camping thanks. 2) Tents so close to each other it looked like a refugee camp. Overall layout fail! 3) Public bathrooms so make sure you are ok showering with someone else's hair in the drain. And the fresh smell of stranger turds. 4) Dingy carpets in the tents and no decks outside the tent. When you step out of the tent you step into dirt. 5) lucky it was not cold when we were there. If it had been and all the tenants had turned on there wood burning stoves one would probably die of Co2 poisoning. We would have much rather stayed in a regular camp site. Ownership can't be an experienced hospitality company with all the mistakes here. Too bad read more

MAGNIFICENT VIEWS, SPECTACULAR STAR GAZING & only 15 min from town; 5 min from Dead Horse, Canyonlands & Moab airport.

The camp is pretty chill & offers some morning hikes and yoga. In the evening there is live music & smores. We had an AMAZING view of SunrisE from our tent.

Wow...so many pleasant surprises. My wife always wanted to go Glamping...so she booked Under Canvas. I was expecting a comfy bed and that's about it. YES it exceed my expectations with the rent set up... What I didn't expect... 1) grilling and picnic area well kept with shade 2) things for kids all included (s'more kit, snow cones, live music, games). 3) Bathrooms - wow...shocked at how clean and sterilized everything was. Including decent quality amenities. 4) Staff - welcoming!!! Helpful!!! Friendly!!! Kind!!! Swear!!! It would be hard to go back to camping after you've glamped. Thanks for giving my family a positive experience and lasting memories! read more

This place looked SUPER cute and I was so excited to book a night here on a quick weekend getaway to Moab for the my brother, fiance, and myself. It is pricey for what you get, but I guess that's what glamping is all about? Anyway, some pros and cons: Pros: -Staff was fantastic- super friendly and responsive. We were missing a lamp which they provide for you in the tent so that you can get around easy at night. As soon as we realized this and called up to front desk, they brought one out to us. -The tents were cute and the beds/mattresses were comfy. -Very close to the bathrooms which was convenient. Cons: -No parking next to your tent. This isn't too big of a deal because the entire site itself is not large and the staff will drive you and your luggage to and from your tent upon arrival and checkout. Not being able to be right by the car is just a bit concerning at night for security reasons. -Not much privacy here. The tents are VERY close together and you can definitely see other people in their tents if they have the doors/screened windows open -Very close to the highway. The pics on their website are a bit deceiving and definitely do not show you how close you are to the road, so there's really only a couple of places to get real nice pics with the background. -Did i mention pricey? I believe it was close to $400/night. One issue I have to mention that rubbed us the wrong way was that we were fresh from a non-glamping camping trip where we had all the privacy in the world. This may have been partly to blame for thinking that at Under Canvas we could just set up a little bb gun target practice right outside of our tent (facing away from other occupied tents, of course). When the staff member drove us to our tent, we asked about this to make sure it was okay, and he said yes. After unpacking and getting settled, we did just that. Not 30 minutes goes by and another staff member came by asking us to please stop and put it away. Pretty sure a neighbor complained, (to be honest, neighbors were not the smile and wave when you pass by type) but either way, it just didn't feel like the staff supported us in any way with this situation especially since we asked permission to begin with. We complied, but this kind of set the tone a bit to the rest of our experience. If you're not used to a real camping experience, this could be something fun to do. It is pricey though and we likely will not be back. read more

This place is really cool. My wife booked us here and when we arrived, I initially was skeptical. We drove up and I said "Is this a hippy colony?" (Only half joking). My concerns were immediately removed when we met the staff here who was incredibly nice, professional, and highly knowledgeable about the campus and the natural surroundings. We enjoyed meeting many other travelers from around the world who hung out by the bonfire and ate s'mores. Everyone talked about where they were from, where they were going, and all the cool places they'd seen that week. Our tent was amazing. At night, we opened the panels to let the cool desert breeze flow through it all night. We agreed it was one of the most peaceful sleeps we've ever had. Our dog was in heaven sleeping outside in the desert. He was having quite an amazing adventure while we were here. I think he was the saddest of all of us when we packed-up to leave. My son also was able to get the staff to take him on a nature hike around the property and they even helped him to catch (and release) a tiny lizard. Props to Colton who became my son's buddy while we were there and entertained all of his questions about the desert. We agreed that we will look for Under Canvas locations when we travel in the future. read more

Why this place has less than 4 star reviews is beyond me. I booked a room for two and a couple of weeks before my stay I had a friend that wanted to join us. So, I e-mailed them and received quick replies from Jolie. They were able to accommodate and the staff is extremely pleasant from the minute you book until the minute you leave. We didn't have any trouble with bugs and only did see one which I probably hopped onto my backpack from outside. That was it. They have extra blankets available upon request. The only thing I think needs just a but of improvement are the bathrooms. They have a 'trailer' with 6 bathrooms each of which include a toilet, a shower, and very small sink. They're conveniently located right in the middle of the campsite - if you forgot to bring a towel or need an extra they have a tent next to the stalls with those available. The only downside to it is that the light that they have in there is very, very dim. It really makes no difference if it's on or off. They have electronic lanterns in the tents which I recommend you take with you when headed to the restrooms for a shower (unless you can do in a dark room). I can't really complain because I am technically camping after all! They have a breakfast and lunch menu but quite frankly I would prefer to head down to town instead. The beds are comfortable, they have USB ports for you to charge your phone as well if you need that. There's a campfire sometime after or around sunset which is pretty sweet. The guests tents have coffee and tea, board games, and sweet souvenirs. The town is only about a 10 minute drive, maybe less. Overall, the experience is great and I recommend you book a stay here, especially if you want to skip the hotel and get a bit of a fun, relaxing outdoors experience (but without leaving all hotel commodities behind!). read more

Fantastic experience! Spent one night here and wish I had stayed longer. The staff and other guests were very friendly, the tent was beautiful and clean. We felt safe and comfortable during our stay. The staff was kind and helpful, the grounds provided gas grills, cornhole, hammocks, gas fires, and more in a communal area that was enjoyed by many of the guests. We sat around a fire with a family while enjoying a magnificent sunset and lightning show. The price point was a little high and could be a deterrent for an extended stay for a lot of people. read more

Traveling cross country and this was by far the nicest place we stayed! The staff could not have been more accommodating (they were especially kind to my five month old puppy) and helpful. I've done plenty of camping in my years, but never "glamping" to this extent. We stayed in one of their deluxe tents which offered privacy and luxury unparalleled to anything we'd experienced outdoors before. As others have noted, the misting system really made the 100+ degree day an after thought. The bed was comfortable, the private bath facilities quite ingenious! We were traveling with a dog, so it made more sense to use their gas grills to cook our own supper. City Market in downtown Moab had ground elk meat and organic cherries - which made quite the meal! Picnic tables are tented and cool - byo plates, but grilling utensils provided. Definitely pre-order the breakfast - we had the breakfast burritos and they were incredible! Thanks Moab Under Canvas - you made lifetime memories for us! read more

If you done your research, Moab Under Canvas is "Glamping." Or you can say it's a step above camping. Moab Under Canvas offers different tent styles. They have the Deluxe Tent which is on a raised platform, away from the noisier parts of the campsite, provides a wood burning stove, and has your own bathroom. They also have Safari Tents, where we stayed. It is on the ground and you have to share a communal bathroom. But it has a nice king size or twin size bed and a dresser. If you're real cheap there are Tipis which just has cots. We went late April and got the Safari Tent. And man it was cold. Even though this is step above camping, it's still camping. So all the stuff you have to deal with in real camping applies here, unless you rent the deluxe tent. Then it might not be that bad. Since it is camping, you can hear a lot of noise outside. I didn't find it to be a problem. They have quiet times at 11 PM, even though you can have those inconsiderate people who don't follow that rule. They also turn off the generators at 11 PM, so you don' t have to worry about the noise from the generators. And even if they had them on, it was a low hum. The highway was far away enough that you can barely hear the cars. So noise-wise, it wasn't bad. Since we went late April, the weather was cold during the night. It was very cold. And since our tents don't have a stove, you have to bundle yourself up. Luckily, they provided thick blankets. That gave enough warmth so we can sleep comfortably. Since we got the Safari Tent, we had to share the bathrooms. The bathrooms looked pretty nice. It's very small. They clean it every day so it's fresh and modern. It has hot showers and a running toilet. They also have free shampoo and soap inside. At 11 PM, when they turn off their generators, the hot water disappears. They have 6 bathrooms total, and it's shared by a ton of tents. However, I didn't find any trouble getting a bathroom when I needed to. They have a separate tent to get fresh towels. And they have a special, handicapped bathroom tent for the disabled people. They have housekeeping that makes your bed and empties your trash. The reception people are very nice. They're the nicest people I've met in a long time. And this is from someone who lives in the South. They will help you with whatever you need. The reception tent has a wood-burning stove, some tea, and a water fountain. The wood burning stove made me want to stay there during the cold nights. They also have breakfast available. It does cost extra, about $24 per breakfast item. The breakfast seems like it comes from Peace Tree Cafe, since the menu looks similar to theirs. You also need to order by 9 PM to get your breakfast. It gets delivered at about 7:30 AM. I would advise you to just go into town to eat. $24 is too expensive to have it delivered to the camp site. They have a community fire pit. You can cook there or hang out there. I didn't use it because I'm introverted. I liked my experience, but I do have some complaints: I booked a tent with a king sized bed, but they gave us a tent with 4 twin beds. The reception tried to change it for us, but it would've required us to move to different tents every day. Therefore, I didn't bother. I don't know why they booked us for 4 twin beds when I booked the King Bed tent. Housekeeping took our quarter that was on our dresser. Yeah, it was only a quarter, and it's not a big deal. But why would they take it? Did they think it was tip? If you stay, I suggest you not leave any money around where they can see it. This is not their fault, but we came around end of April, and it rained. When it rains, it sucks. You have to walk in the cold rain to the bathrooms if you need to use it. And it's not fun to go into your tent wet. I suggest you to plan your stay when it's not raining in Moab. It only rains a few times a year in Moab, and I had to book it during that time. If you do book when it rains, pack an umbrella or a poncho. Depending on when you book, the weather will be cold (like when we went). Make sure to prepare by bringing a good jacket for the cold nights. Also during the days, it might get super hot. Luckily, they provide you with a fan. Also, I feel this place was overpriced. For the Safari Tent, you pay about $150/night. For that price, you can get a decent hotel where you get your own hot shower, bathroom, and heating/cooling system. You are paying for the experience I guess. If you love the outdoors and camping--except you don't have to do all the work--I guess $150/night is worth it. For a city slicker like me who doesn't like camping, the price seemed too high. The breakfast was expensive too. Overall, did I enjoy my stay? Yes I did. That's why I'm giving it 4 stars. We stayed 4 nights. But I probably would've liked it if I stayed 1-2 nights and didn't have to endure the elements. read more

I always wanted to "glamp" and Under Canvas was the way to go! Cap off your trip to Moab by sleeping under the milky way in comfort! When I arrived I was met by extremely friendly staff who helped me plan for my park adventures the next day. They were hosting a complimentary s'more and fire pit with wonderful local musicians serenading the small fireside gathering. It was magical (and delicious!). The bed in my tent was very comfortable and I felt very safe. The bathrooms are very small, but having a real toilet and a shower facility on site was wonderful! Be sure to take the time to sit outside your tent and stare in awe at teh milky way above you before you snuggle in to your comfy bed! read more

Love love love! Highly recommend this experience. The staff was very nice & accommodating, the tents were amazing, bathrooms & showers were nice & clean. There is a staff member happy to help 24/7, fun games in the lobby tent, free coffee, hot chocolate & fruit 24/7, & they provide s'mores at the community space campfire. I will definitely be using Under Canvas again. Great camping experience without all the normal camping hassles! read more

Under Canvas Moab - Safari tent with attach hive - Campgrounds Near Me - Moab, Utah

There are many reviews of Moab Under Canvas and I truly believe this place is about perspective! We loved this place! If your a hiker, backpacker, or camper this place is for you. This was a 5 star environment for us, if your wanting a camping experience. We came in June and I don't know if I would recommend more then a couple of nights stay. This is not due to Moab Under Canvas but due to the weather. The average temperature during the day was 98C and at night 65-70C. The staff were SO friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable of the area. We were greeted as soon as we pulled into the facility (although it isn't the easiest place to find and can be passed by at night). The staff helped us carry our luggage to our tent and explained everything to us. We stayed in The Suite with Teepee, our older children joined us for the trip, it was excellent. The views were amazing!!! There was enough room to play spades or hang out and talk. The cots in the Teepee were a bit small for adults but better then sleeping on the ground. The Suite was extremely comfortable and clean. I would have liked a little more room for the shower area but honestly as an avid camper it isn't a huge complaint. Plus you can just walk to the "community" bath house and take a shower. The bath house area is the cleanest I have ever experienced!! So if you don't want to pay extra for the bathroom in your tent the other options are great. One of the things I absolutely loved was the unlimited (at anytime of the day or night) access to the reception area. They have a nightly fire with unlimited s'mores and fun starting at 8:30ish to 11pm. Plus the COFFEE!! We came here to do many outdoor activities and needed all the energy we could get (I guess we aren't the only one). The staff has heard this demand and doubled up the caffeine for the coffee and it is delicious!! Plus they provide the bottomless cup (plus bottomless amount of water). I would highly recommend Moab Under Canvas if your looking for an outdoor atmosphere with a bit of luxury. If you don't like the heat, bugs, noises, or the outdoor lifestyle this place is not for you! read more

When here with my ex awhile back. The concept it cool, they have a nice big bed and sleeping outside is fun. But considering it was $300 a night, not much privacy and a 10 minute walk to the nearest bathroom that's for 50 people. I thought it was three times as much as it should have been. I mean the s'mores were a nice touch but breakfast would have been even nicer. The area is really pretty, but it's not nearly as secluded as I wanted it to be, there's a main highway close enough to throw a baseball. Also it was windy, so the tent flaps were making sounds like the blue man group were playing outside. So yeah to sum it up, sleeping outside in a tent with a bed is really cool, but not $300 cool. I could buy a mattress for that price and throw it on the ground. When we got there I instantly though we should have stayed at the motel 6 up the road. read more

Lots of what has already been said. This product is extremely overpriced in my opinion. You get there and then there are a lot of hidden fees. Maybe the resort fee should be a bit lower if you are staying there off season? I mean i am not sure what the extra $50 a day was for because I had no housekeeping (shouldn't just be upon request, you guys could at least empty the trash without us telling you) and the shower was ice cold. Also we were placed in the worst tent and i saw that there were other tents open. I should have just camped. Great staff tho. This is about your product and what you are promoting compared to what we actually get. read more

The website photos were glamours, but it is still camping so I expected to be roughin it, which I'm OK with. I was very pleasantly surprised by how spacious the tent was, with a fan and misters (which we did not need to use even in August weather). I was very impressed by how clean the bathrooms were for a camp site. The location was absolutely beautiful. The evening sky filled with stars took my breath away, I've never seen anything like this before, even see the milky way! I wish I had more time to spend there and explore the area, unfortunately our road trip schedule had us in and out in a jiffy, but that astoundingly beautiful night sky, I will remember for the rest of my life. read more

Please know this is a step above camping, and it won't have the usual amenities of a hotel like AC units and what not. They offer different types of tents- from simple tipis ( a lantern, cots and sleeping bags) to tents as big as a basic room where you can walk around and stand without stooping. We booked the safari tent for 1 night and was happy with it- king sized bed, heavy blankets , comforters, a chest of drawers, hat/coat stand, side tables with battery powered lanterns and a fan. Zippered window and double sided zippered doors to tent. A small table and two chairs, a Persian rug completed the tent. Bathrooms were a few feet away for tipis and safari tents. I believe the deluxe tent has it's own bathroom and wood burning stove. Temperatures on a June night were comfortable and cool. We had the mountains as a backdrop which was beautiful. Tents are not as far from each other but still enough space for privacy. Tipi only areas were closer to each other in another section. The bathrooms just had a slight odor to them, reminiscent of a porta potty- which they really are. BUT- shampoo and soap are included in a stand up shower, hot water. and each unit has a private toilet and sink. Remember, this is camping but a step up. Clean Towels are in a separate tent in front of the bathrooms. Reception area offers free coffee/tea/hot cocoa. Friendly and helpful staff. Less than 10 mins to Arches national Park. 10-15 away from downtown Moab which is pretty and offers a lot of restaurants to eat at. MUC also offers breakfast delivery but it's pretty $$$. Opt to go to town instead or take your own cooler. Overall a great experience to "glamp." read more

I'm thoroughly confused by all the highly negative reviews-- expecting staff to read your mind when it comes to carrying luggage or control the weather in November seems a bit out of touch, imo. A buddy and I spent 4 nights here and loved every moment of it, sure things could be better... I'd love a hot foot bath when I come back to camp after a day of hiking, and it would be great to have a reasonably priced breakfast, for example. BUT we're glamping here people. Having access to hot showers, bathrooms, communal hangout areas, 24/7 charging stations and a awesome staff to give recommendations and even book adventures (we went river rafting) for you are what differentiate this from your standard camping experience and you should be prepared to do just that, camp. I can't help but feel like a lot of these negative reviews are from the same people that bring a single plastic water bottle on a 5 mile hike or are shocked that there isn't a Starbucks attached to the Canyonlands' visitor center Every single staff member that we encountered was friendly and beyond helpful. Many of which seem to have worked there for multiple seasons and are well seasoned climbers and hikers. I'll definitely be back and looking forward to their new glamping spot near the Grand Canyon. read more

Under Canvas Moab - Campgrounds Near Me - Moab, Utah

This was the most spectacular experience. The tent itself, all the way to staff and amenities way exceeded expectations. Highlights: The staff shuttles visitors to tents on golf carts when they arrive and leave (and are exceptionally friendly). They help you choose hikes and sites to see along with adventure activities. Each night they can help you order breakfast and coffee to be brought to your tent in the morning. When you wake up- you'll be in the most beautiful environment imaginable. If you have any issues (lantern light needed replacing and I dropped my earring on the shower slat) you can text the staff and they come right over to help. I couldn't have been more surprised how seamless and perfect this experience was. I cannot wait to use Under Canvas for more national parks adventures. read more

Despite its three star rating I decided to try this place because Moab was pretty booked up over Easter weekend and Under Canvas had just been recommended in the GOOP newsletter. Hey, if it's good enough for Gwyneth Paltrow it should be pretty fab, right? Not so much. The tents are nice - spacious, with comfortable beds and a powerful little fireplace. They are spaced far enough apart that they each feel fairly private. The location is nice - sort of a random desert plot quite close to Arches. I like that you can hike out across the empty land a half mile or so if you want. The employees are super nice and make check in and check out a total breeze. And they have a communal campfire with free make-your-own s'mores which is really cute and fun. BUT the bathrooms. Look, I understand it's glamping. I don't need anything fancy. At the same time, I don't want to have to walk in the cold dark night along winding barely-lit paths to a bathroom that's five minutes away. That is a part of the camping experience I'm not delighted to replicate when I'm paying $300 a night. There are about forty tents and a shared four bathroom trailer in the middle of the camp. Take some of our $300 and set up a second trailer that's more conveniently located. Also, lighting the path seems like a basic thing. The other issue with our stay was that it was a moderately windy night and the tent flaps banged and slapped loudly all night long. When I'm camping in a tent I can secure the flaps so I assume they can do that as well. I'll also say that given the prices a little something more than coffee would be nice for breakfast. Plenty cheaper hotels manage to put together a small snack in the morning. Overall I had a pleasant experience, but would never pay this much money to stay here again. For $175 it would be worth it. read more
