- "Nice stay out in the woods. Clean tent and comfortable setup. Was a good time with my kids." - "Unique and fun, the only problem is other guest get quite rowdy!" - "It was alright. Nothing special unfortunately. The area around camp was not well groomed - floor of the tent wss very uneven as well as surrounding areas. Restrooms/shower was fine. Sheets had hairs in them and floor of tent looked like it had not been cleaned very well. Underwhelmed by thos experience for the price which I felt was really high for what you get. I would say you'd do better to just camp yourself, or just find a hotel. "

- "Wanted to say thank you to Keshia for such an incredible experience! The location was easy to find, extremely clean (despite being outside) and very comfortable. Host was very communicative and willing to answer any questions. We also had everything we needed to maximize our experience (fire wood, matches, cooking tools, extra blankets, etc). One of our favorite parts of the stay was enjoying sunrise and sunset in the hammock park! Our only regret was forgetting to sign the guestbook!"

Please be advised, that during heavy rain And snow four-wheel-drive may be necessary at best roads are bumpy at all times and not recommended for low clearance cars. also the units are not heated. Please plan to show up before dark for the best experience and ease of finding the location.

Experience the Southwest in a secluded & peaceful part of SE Utah. South of Moab, Canyon Lands & Arches National Park. North of Monument Valley. Watch amazing stars and sunsets above the crowds and heat of Moab below.

This area is dedicated to primitive camping, fire pits and firewood are available onsite. Showers and bathrooms are available in the main site area which is a five minute walk. Soon after you pass Indian Canyon the road gets bumpy for about 30 yards. Generally if you stay all the way to the west, towards the mountains it’s easiest. Or pick an easy route down the center of the road. High clearance recommended but skilled drivers can negotiate the route without much effort.

The space
As you enter the gate to the property gate, camping is available on either side of the driveway, choose your spot. To get to the main site you can continue on the driveway for about five minutes walking and will come to the showers, outhouse, Wi-Fi, etc. This specific campsite though is for primitive camping only and has no services other than firewood, fire pits and a picnic table. If you were to continue on Brushey Terrace, you will end up on the national forest land. The road gets quite a bit worse after the gate to the property and is accessible by four-wheel-drive vehicles only.

Guest access
The host house is nearby further down the driveway on the way to the main site if you need assistance please text or call.

Other things to note
You will likely be greeted by two friendly dogs, the black one is Bear, the brindle is River. River is still a puppy and tends to jump up on you though he is learning. Feel free to be firm if he jumps.

Indian Canyon Ranch is a Nest In Harmony promoted location, we value natural living and alternative living styles and featuring different living structures for off-grid lifestyles. With our guidance for the best experience for guests, owner of Indian Canyon Ranch, Joe, lived and worked in Yosemite & Grand Canyon National Park as project manager and not wanting the used materials to be wasted in the landfill, Joe captured the opportunity to create an off-grid retreat when he bought the first 10 acres of Indian Canyon Ranch which is now 20 acres total He took years to collect and build this off-grid retreat, piece by piece, up-cycling construction debris. Now Joe lives off-grid full-time and is sharing in the experience. Joe will be able to answer some of your questions or give you advice on the area and other natural wonders in the region including local Indian ruins, or a great place to swim, or go off-roading :)

- "Everyone was very nice!" - "Located about 10 miles south of Monticello on beautiful treed property with several campsites, fire pits and even hand made benches and tables. Our spot was private and quiet, plenty of room for our camping gear. Tons of available firewood. Our host went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed! Skip Moab and go here!" - "This low-key setting, dark-sky setting was easy to access but felt remote. The stars were magnificent. We used Joe’s lower camping area, so come self-contained. There is a fire ring, plenty of wood around the property, a picnic table and porta potty. Great for when you want a reserved spot to semi-boondock. Joe was a great host and easy to communicate with—we enjoyed our stay for the annular solar eclipse."

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.

- "Stayed at this lovely property in the Cedar Pod and had the best experience! We stayed here while competing in the Bears Ears Ultra. We took advantage of the sauna (incredible) and the communal kitchen, making burritos one night. We also spent an evening in downtown Moab. This is the perfect place for those who don't want to be in tourist-centric Moab and prefer a more relaxing, natural atmosphere. The hosts were fabulous, providing us with tubs for hanging out at Foy Lake and bringing coffee in the morning. They have two sweet pooches and friendly chickens roaming around! Such a special place where memories were made—we will be coming back again and again! Cheers!!"

Perfect blend of comfort and wild! Nestled privately back in the Cedar trees and Pinon pines you'll find a beautifully furnished tent with solar lanterns, a king sized bed, seating and an oversized fly to cool things down. Picnic areas offer a propane fire, picnic tables, cornhole boards, and grills. Shower tents have potable water, hot showers and flushing toilets. A picturesque and serene desert-mountain setting that is close to museums, restaurants and some of Utah's greatest attractions!

- "I absolutely loved our stay at this property. We had a little hiccup when we first got there but Keisha was so kind and genuinely wiling to help that it didn’t even made the issue, an issue. I highly recommend this property."

Sleep comfortably in the wild! Nestled privately in the Cedar trees and Pinon pines you'll find a beautifully furnished tent with solar lanterns, a king sized bed and seating. Our Tents are large and airy, with a back door and side windows. An extended fly cools the tent down and offers a nice shaded front porch. Picnic areas have a propane fire, picnic tables, cornhole boards, and grills. Take a shower after a long day in our unique shower tent with potable water, hot showers and flushing toilets. Canvas camp is perfectly located with Moab, Canyonlands National Park, Arches National Park, and Newspaper Rock to the North, and Bears Ears, Natural Bridges, Butler Wash Ruins and Goosenecks State Park to the South. A picturesque and serene desert-mountain setting that is close to museums, restaurants and some of Utah's greatest attractions!

The Space:

Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.

Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided (you’re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.

What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling
-Bedding and pillows
-Lanterns and lighting
-Firewood for the campfire
-Water

Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.

If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper’s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!

Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!

Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.

Other Things to Note:
Bring your own food. The nearest Grocery store and restaurants are 25 miles away.

Bring your own bedding.

NO SMOKING IN THE TENTS.
