Property Overview

Under Canvas Lake Powell – Grand Staircase sits perched on a canyon rim plateau in the heart of the American Southwest, with sweeping red-rock views and its own on-site slot canyon right outside your tent. From hiking towering mesas and unwinding in a red-rock oasis to chasing sunsets at Horseshoe Bend and walking with dinosaurs at Grand Staircase–Escalante, the outdoor experiences here are as varied as the landscape itself. Lone Rock Beach and the main Lake Powell Marina are both within a short drive.

Agent Tips

  • Wrap up your day spending time outside with s'mores as a glass of wine by one of the communal firepits.
  • Don't miss the on-site star parties, either, as this is one of the world's first DarkSky resorts and the night skies here are among the best in the American Southwest.
Accommodations

Sleep on the rim of a red-rock canyon.

Four tent styles (Suites, Deluxes, Stargazers, and Safaris) are spread across the canyon rim plateau, each one warmly lit and simply furnished with the Southwest landscape right outside the door.
Restaurant + Bar

Seasonal Southwest cooking with canyon rim views.

The menu draws on the flavors of the American Southwest, changing with the seasons and leaning into thoughtfully sourced produce that fuels long days exploring canyon country. From breakfasts with endless coffee to dinners under the starlit sky, the good food is always welcome before or after excursions into the surrounding landscapes.
