Planning a Group Glamping Trip Near the Grand Canyon?

Planning a group getaway to the Grand Canyon? Whether you're organizing a retreat, reunion, or just a much-needed escape with friends, finding group lodging near the South Rim can be tricky. Hotels can feel impersonal. Campsites don’t offer enough comfort. Cabins are often too far away. That’s where Highland Grand Canyon comes in.

Our boutique glamping retreat offers something rare: the ability to book the entire site: five luxury safari tents, two bathrooms, a shaded outdoor kitchen, and no strangers in sight. It’s private, peaceful, and just 4 miles from the Grand Canyon South Rim.

Why Choose Glamping for Your Group?

Glamping strikes the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. You get:

  • Real beds and luxury linens

  • Outdoor space to gather and cook

  • Room to spread out (without sharing walls or hearing hotel neighbors)

  • Nature, stargazing, and elk sightings all without sacrificing sleep or style

Whether you're traveling with family, celebrating a milestone birthday, or organizing a retreat, full site glamping in Arizona offers more flexibility and fun than booking separate hotel rooms.

What You Get When You Book the Whole Site

At Highland, booking the full site gives you:

  • 5 stylish safari tents (sleeps up to 10 total)

  • 2 private bathrooms with hot showers

  • Outdoor kitchen with prep space, BBQ, and picnic tables

  • Games and a firepit for s’mores and late-night hangs

  • Plenty of room to roam

You’ll also get total privacy: no other guests, no shared spaces with strangers, and no noise except wind through the trees.

Why Highland?

We’re the closest private glamping retreat to the Grand Canyon South Rim, tucked away on a quiet 10-acre property surrounded by Kaibab National Forest. You can spend the day hiking canyon trails, then be back in time to grill dinner and catch the sunset from your tent’s porch.

Our off-grid retreat is eco-conscious, unplugged (but still has charging power banks), and family-run by locals who know the canyon inside and out.

Perfect for Retreats, Reunions, and Small Groups

We’ve hosted:

  • Yoga and wellness retreats

  • Family vacations and reunions

  • Birthday weekends and girls' trips

  • Bachelor and bachelorette parties

  • Elopements and micro adventure weddings

  • Small team off-sites and creative gatherings

Whatever brings your group together, Highland makes it special.
