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.

I was never a camping fan but I became a fan of glamping for sure . The facilities were really good .. the only beef I have is that the continuous clicking sound of the gas tank outside as I had to keep the heater on in the freezing temps. Otherwise everything was A

This is a very special resort, unlike no other. The tent is well appointed and way beyind our expectations. The staff is so super helpful and friendly. We really felt their pride in this special place. Highly recommended for all . The breakfast was so fresh and delightful as well as boxed lunch and dinner. I really can't stress how wonderful backland is we will definitely be returning.

The most relaxing trip you’ll take. Best sleep also. Stargazing as you fall asleep. It’s kind of like camping comfortably.

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.

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 :)

First time at glamping. Would definitely recommend this location. There’s a beautiful lake to explore with 4 kayaks from the property. You have all facilities in a big tent. Every day we woke up with the best forest view.

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 was an excellent property! The staff were very helpful and fun to chat with. I would suggest they do something to make the walking path on property usable. The views are great and walking around there would be awesome.

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.
