Though many visiting Georgia head to Atlanta for music and a growing food scene, and to Savannah for its picturesque cobblestoned squares and historic architecture, this southeastern state is also home to a surprising number of natural landmarks, hiking trails, and accessible outdoor adventure.
Georgia's terrain varies vastly, from coastal beaches and meandering rivers to boundless farmland and thick forests, making it an exciting destination for campers and outdoor adventurers. Access the Appalachian Trail at Springer Mountain, discover the history of Paleo-Indians at the Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park, and explore the undeveloped beaches of Cumberland Island. Whether you’re thrilled by the possibility to kayak, canoe, fish, hike or just be outside, Georgia has endless outdoor recreation opportunities.
And for those who prefer to experience the great outdoors from a base that offers a little bit of luxury, Georgia has become something of a glamping—aka glamorous camping—destination in the Southeast with upscale glampsites, shiny Airstreams, and boutique treehouses that elevate the outdoor experience with all the conveniences of an Airbnb: king beds, air conditioning, WiFi, you name it.
Here, we round up the nine best glamping rentals you can check out for yourself during your next trip to Georgia.
