Highland Grand Canyon was founded with a simple goal: to create a place where travelers could experience the Grand Canyon in a way that feels personal, eco-friendly, and deeply connected to the land. As a family-owned retreat, Highland reflects our commitment to preserving the natural beauty of this forest while offering a welcoming space for guests from around the world. Our commitment is to keep Highland eco friendly and fully off grid, allowing guests to enjoy the beauty of the canyon while knowing their stay leaves a light footprint. Hospitality here is personal and genuine. We welcome each guest as we would a friend, with the goal of creating a stay that is quiet, restorative, and unforgettable. Whether you come for quiet solitude, new connections, or evenings by the firepit under the stars, Highland is about more than where you stay. It is about how you experience the Grand Canyon.

Highland Grand Canyon is the closest private glamping retreat to the South Rim, offering a rare combination of seclusion and convenience. Just ten minutes from the rim yet tucked away four miles down a quiet forest road, Highland gives guests the chance to escape the crowds while staying remarkably close to the canyon. With only five safari style tents, the retreat is intentionally small and eco friendly, running completely off grid. Each tent is designed for comfort and peace of mind, featuring a king size memory foam bed with a heated mattress pad, soft linens, warm lantern light, and a private porch where you can sip coffee at sunrise, enjoy a glass of wine at sunset, and watch elk wander through the pines. Guests share modern communal bathrooms with hot showers and flushing toilets, along with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, picnic style dining, and a large firepit with free wood that becomes the heart of camp each evening. Free WiFi keeps you connected, while outdoor games and stargazing create an atmosphere that is both fun and unforgettable. Highland is where quiet luxury meets adventure. It is your private basecamp to the Grand Canyon, surrounded by wildlife, filled with peace, and designed to make every moment feel special.

Highland sits on a private parcel of land completely surrounded by Kaibab National Forest, offering unmatched serenity, privacy, and stargazing with zero light pollution. Though it feels remote, Highland is just a 15-minute drive down dirt and gravel roads to the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park and the town of Tusayan, where you’ll find restaurants, shops, and scenic attractions. It’s the perfect balance: total seclusion, with easy access to everything you came to see.
