Glamping in Kansas

·

The Sunflower State has plenty of prairie and fields to explore, and you can enjoy the comforts of home when glamping. Explore culture in Topeka, museums in Wichita, and barbecue in Kansas City. Drive along Route 66 or explore archaeological sites in Scott State Park. Take the Flint Hills National Scenic Byway to explore the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve or head to the Cimarron National Grasslands for massive prairies and sunflower beds. It gets hot in summer, but luckily there are plenty of places for water play in the heartland. Get out on the water at Tuttle Creek, Milford, Cedar Bluff, El Dorado, and Wilson state parks. Many Kansas state parks offer cabins for campers, and some offer modern comforts like heating and air conditioning. For more amenities, like pools, kitchens, laundry facilities, and wifi, opt for a private glamping cabin, yurt, or safari tent.

In Kansas, 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 Kansas, 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.
