Backland Luxury Nature Resort offers a nature-immersed glamping escape with spacious tents, dark-sky stargazing, and a wide range of on-site activities that keep couples, families, and groups entertained without leaving the property.
Reviews highlight consistently friendly, attentive staff and smooth, helpful service. Breakfast earns praise and many enjoy the on-site dinners, often noting tasty, well-prepared food. Access is a recurring tradeoff: the property is very remote and reached by a long unpaved road, so plan extra time and daylight for arrival. Expect a quiet, activity-rich retreat far from town.

We have had the most amazing time, we have three kids that did not want to leave the property for the 3 days we were there. Spent the days kayaking, fishing, playing chess and a bunch of other games made available by the property, walked through the forest, watched the rain, watched the moon through the telescope available at the property … all in all - an amazing experience !!! We will be back :)

Enjoyed a three night stay in a sky tent. The property is in a beautiful location. It does require you to drive 15 miles on a maintained dirt road to get there. We had a four wheel drive truck so it was no problem. Make sure to arrive before dark because it’s very easy to get lost in the forest . This is a perfect place for children and very dog friendly. Our favorite part was nighttime by the campfire and looking thru the telescope to see Saturn and its rings! We took a day trip to white horse lake five miles away which was a very pleasant hike around the lake. The staff at this property are amazing.

We had such a great time at Backland! A fun drive in opened up to 10 glamping tents. Everything was in great condition and they had so many extras: a lake with complimentary kayaks, s’mores kits every night, fishing rods, and much more! The staff was so helpful accommodating us. We cancelled a tour to spend more time there.

A 10 mile private dirt road will take you to a small collection of large and luxurious glamping tents. The privacy of the site and attentiveness of the staff will make you feel like you are a trillionaire on your private planet. A parking spot is provided in front of each tent with additional parking in front of the main building as well as EV charging. Free breakfast consist of pastries, fruit, cereal, crepes, and eggs. Lunch wraps or sandwiches are available for purchase the day prior. Dinner is available through reservations and although they are short staffed, service is quick and food is delicious and fairly elevated. There are many communal activities in the lobby such as yoga mats, fishing rods, games, and smores rods. Kayaks and life jackets are available outside for boating around the lake. There is also tetherball, volleyball, and cornhole making this resort the perfect place to stay with no shortage of things to do. The dirt and gravel roads are perfect for runs as there is no traffic. The staff lives close so there is always someone available to assist with any issues. Each tent is accessed and secured by a personal code. I honestly have no complaints other than the occasional airplane flying by and ruining the serenity of the surrounding nature & (just a suggestion) it would be a great bonus to have communal bikes available for biking down the dirt roads through the forest. Backlands is now my go-to spot to get away from the city and recharge my battery. 10/10

We arrived a little early and were cheerfully accommodated, our tent was sparkling clean and had thoughtful touches throughout, the chef’s specials were intriguing and delicious~ could not ask for a sweeter escape. Will come again to see it in the summertime.

Minus an unfortunate mixup with our reservation (which Chase went out of his way to try to resolve), wonderful experience at this beautiful and clean glamping hotel! The area is very remote but once you get there, it is exactly the glamping experience we were looking for. The tents are spacious, clean and modern, and have a beautiful and tranquil view. Great dining options and good breakfast included. We had a snow day during our stay and the white everywhere is absolutely stunning!

This place is a hidden gem! Staff was amazing, food was great. We surprised our young adult kids on a little side trip from Scottsdale, and stayed a night at Backland. We shared a tent with five of us and were very comfortable. What an amazing place to walk and explore. The stargazing was awesome, and we all decided we would love to come back.

We told us about the train to the Grand Canyon, Bearizona, and Sedona. This was our first time to AZ and we were so thankful for suggestions of what to do and lost importantly, things we could do with a toddler.

We had such a great time at Backland! A fun drive in opened up to 10 glamping tents. Everything was in great condition and they had so many extras: a lake with complimentary kayaks, s’mores kits every night, fishing rods, and much more! The staff was so helpful accommodating us. We cancelled a tour to spend more time there.

It was awesome, very quite and relaxing. Staff was very nice and always attentive. Had fires going outside at night, smores at the ready. I would bring snacks next time since getting to a town is harder/longer on the forest dirt roads. But overall a great experience.

This place was amazing! The location and view from the tent were breathtaking. It is so peaceful and quiet. Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. It has been a long time since I encountered amazing staff line here. So many games for kids, kayaking( with no reservations), s’mores for kids in the evening. I truly have no words. We loved every second of it. We will be back for sure.

Friendly reception, gorgeous accommodations, tasty food, divine views!!! We arrived a little early and were cheerfully accommodated, our tent was sparkling clean and had thoughtful touches throughout, the chef’s specials were intriguing and delicious~ could not ask for a sweeter escape. Will come again to see it in the summertime.

We stayed two nights and had a wonderful time. This is such a unique place nestled in the middle of the forest. The view looking out of your rear window is just breathtaking. Truly a one of a kind experience. We ate at the restaurant onsite and were very impressed with the choices and quality of food. We were even able to play scrabble at the table while eating! They were very accommodating and everything we needed was provided. Highly recommended!

The staff was amazing, especially Chase. We arrived to the camp site late in the evening. He promptly got us some drinks and dinner. He gave us some recommendations and we did them all! We told us about the train to the Grand Canyon, Bearizona, and Sedona. This was our first time to AZ and we were so thankful for suggestions of what to do and lost importantly, things we could do with a toddler.

This place is a hidden gem! Staff was amazing, food was great. We surprised our young adult kids on a little side trip from Scottsdale, and stayed a night at Backland. We shared a tent with five of us and were very comfortable. What an amazing place to walk and explore. The stargazing was awesome, and we all decided we would love to come back.

A 10 mile private dirt road will take you to a small collection of large and luxurious glamping tents. The privacy of the site and attentiveness of the staff will make you feel like you are a trillionaire on your private planet. A parking spot is provided in front of each tent with additional parking in front of the main building as well as EV charging. Free breakfast consist of pastries, fruit, cereal, crepes, and eggs. Lunch wraps or sandwiches are available for purchase the day prior. Dinner is available through reservations and although they are short staffed, service is quick and food is delicious and fairly elevated. There are many communal activities in the lobby such as yoga mats, fishing rods, games, and smores rods. Kayaks and life jackets are available outside for boating around the lake. There is also tetherball, volleyball, and cornhole making this resort the perfect place to stay with no shortage of things to do. The dirt and gravel roads are perfect for runs as there is no traffic. The staff lives close so there is always someone available to assist with any issues. Each tent is accessed and secured by a personal code. I honestly have no complaints other than the occasional airplane flying by and ruining the serenity of the surrounding nature & (just a suggestion) it would be a great bonus to have communal bikes available for biking down the dirt roads through the forest. Backlands is now my go-to spot to get away from the city and recharge my battery. 10/10
