There's no doubt that the activity of glamping is on the rise. Camping but with a sprinkle of glamour in the form of light amenities like heating, cooling, soft linens, wi-fi, kitchenettes, and even a sauna or hot-tub, glamping provides just the right balance of grit and comfort to make a weekend away affordable, cozy, and memorble-without the type 2 fun you may encounter on a traditional camping trip.

And where there's nature-there's glamping, which means the diverse landscape of the United States provides some ample opportunity to awaken in endless glamping options-like canvas tents, treehouses, trailers, and unique stays like renovated silos and lookout towers (more on that later). Whether you're dipping your toe into the world of camping, want to treat yourself, or are planning a badass group trip-the options below are excellent spots to do just that. Spread out throughout (most of) the United States, they're the best of the best we've found along our own glamping journeys, but fear not-there's plenty more where that came from, just check their corresponding guides.

So choose your player (or state) and get out there friends.
