Answer
Not sure of every clue, but I think you are
the Four Corners states (Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah).
To the West, they are young and grand
Brigham Young founded Salt Lake City in Utah, the Grand Canyon is in Arizona.
To the North, they are high and briny
Colorado has tall mountains and legal marijuana, the Great Salt Lake is in Utah.
To the East, they are enchanting and jolly
New Mexico is the "land of enchantment", Jolly Rancher candy is made in Colorado.
To the South, they are rising and shiny
Phoenix rises from the ashes and is a city in Arizona. Not sure why New Mexico is shiny...
I'm all at once and none at all.
"Four Corners" refers to all the states together. I think the actual corner area is a Native American territory not under the control of any of the states?
