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 :)

There’s several sites (trailers, tents) but the sites are not numbered nor have clear labels with their names, it makes it hard to find your designated site. The owner was unprofessional and unkind to my daughter therefore I left that night and booked a hotel in Moab instead. I’ve used Expedia for a long time and I was very disappointed to find such an establishment being promoted by this company. People of color should be warned not to stay here.
Super-cute, clean teardrop trailer parked in the perfect location! Stayed dry and cozy when it rained. Great outdoor kitchen and clean outhouse/shower. Fun solar lighting. Even wifi! Also great location to drive to Recapture Reservoir, Moab, Arches National Park, or even Colorado! Interesting property to explore too. Even though the owner was out of town, he made sure to stay in contact and was readily available for any questions. I hope to stay again! My little dog loved it too! Thanks, Joe! We had a great time!
