If you want a glamping experience in the rugged wilderness, Colorado is your spot.
This expansive western state offers a variety of ecosystems for outdoor activities, from high desert plateaus near Grand Junction to untouched Rocky Mountain National Park outside Denver. Here you'll find world-famous ski resorts, legendary horseback riding, mountain biking near ancient hot springs, and some of the nation's top rafting and fly fishing rivers. Colorado is also ideal for glamping options, particularly for those who want to experience the beauty of nature with some creature comforts like wifi, linens, kitchenettes, hot tubs, and wood-burning stoves. Even campers swap tent campsites for glamping tents once temperatures begin to drop. Colorado winters are cold and snowy, perfect for luxury glamping experiences such as cozying up in a heated yurt after a long day of snowshoeing or watching snowflakes fall from the comfort of a secluded treehouse with a fire pit out front. Whether you’re visiting Vail, Cañon City, or Colorado Springs, the best glamping getaways are cozy, quiet, and wild.
In Colorado, glamping is a type of outdoor stay combining camping's nature setting with the luxury and convenience of comforts like beds, warm showers, or electricity. When glamping in Colorado, there's no need to bring your own tent—instead, glampers may stay the night in a cabin, a vintage Airstream, a canvas bell tent, a yurt, or even a treehouse.
