Each of our trips is designed with a mission to empower women in the destination we visit. For several years we have directly supported this husband and wife operation in Utah. Our Founder visited their glamping site for the first time in 2021 right after they opened and fell in love. Since then Cherish has hosted several glamping trips back to this spectacular site that has been built from the ground up with Keshia & Erik's own hands.

Their Story

Since 2021, Cherish Tours has been honored to partner with this husband and wife team, that is continually inspired by their deep love for Utah. Inspired by their passion for the outdoors, they transformed a shared vision into reality, building their glamping site on 22 stunning acres along the road to The Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. Their journey began with a life-changing road trip in 2012, followed by a bold decision to leave the Las Vegas city life behind and create a haven where others could reconnect with nature.

In 2020, they discovered the property along the road to the Needles District and brought their dream to life by creating an authentic glamping experience. They have built the glamping site with their own hands from the ground up. The land they purchased had no modern amenities, electricity, plumbing, or otherwise. Everything on property now has been added by this amazing team.

We’ve loved witnessing their unwavering commitment to authentic experiences, their hands-on talent in growing this incredible site, and their dedication to sharing the magic of Utah with travelers. Their story and mission align beautifully with our values at Cherish, and it’s been a joy to support their inspiring journey and share this amazing destination with our community.
