Glamping in Minnesota

Name: Minnesota
Address: Minnesota
Rating: 4.851500000000001

Besides the massive Lake Superior, Minnesota is home to thousands of lakes, along with a landscape of prairies, forests, and bluffs. Explore cultural attractions in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, or visit the lighthouse at Split Rock Lighthouse State Park and archaeological sites at Mille Lacs Kathio State Park. Go mountain biking at Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area. Visit the headwaters of the Mississippi at Itasca State Park. Paddle more than 1,000 lakes in Superior National Forest or the waterways of Voyageurs National Park, or explore the wetlands of Chippewa National Forest. Winters are cold, but a heated glamping site will keep you toasty after a day of downhill and cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, dog sledding, and ice fishing. Minnesota state parks offer tipis, wall tents, yurts, and cabins from rustic to fairly modern, while private glamping options include amenity-filled safari tents, bubble tents, yurts, treehouses, covered wagons, and cabins.

In Minnesota, 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 Minnesota, 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.

Detroit Lakes, MN · 10 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

This old homestead belonged to my belated brother Steve, and after he passed unexpectedly, we decided to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for those interested in sharing a peaceful and modest property. The old barn is a work in progress to eventually become the base to accommodating more travelers and outdoor enthusiasts as finances permit. My son Logan, after having worked in the service industry bartending for 14 years and hosting 100+ global travelers via CouchSurfing out in San Diego, is well-versed in creating an inviting space, enjoying the merits of hard work through the hospitality industry. We look forward to meeting you and sharing/swapping stories around the campfire! Learn more about this land: Our property and profile are in constant change as we are in a stage of development, but we look to share our land with those seeking to enjoy a warm, welcome environment for those fellow wanderers, outdoor enthusiasts, vagabonds, and globetrotters. Logan is a well-traveled backpacker and together we share 5 1/2 acres here in a bustling little touristy town. We enjoy the company of those who endorse small footprint, sustainable practices and like to establish meaningful connections.  All we ask is that you respect the property, our neighbors, and make an effort to add one more new friend before you depart.

Altura, MN · 10 sites

Wilderness inspired campground specializing in hike-in rustic glamping, treehouse cabins and outfitting. Located on Whiskey Hill in the Whitewater River Valley near the town of Elba, MN. The cabins are easy to access with close parking. The hike-in rustic glamping sites offer a rugged backpacking like experience with spacious, secluded sites, creature comforts for a good night's sleep and no equipment required, all designed to immerse guests in the surrounding woodland. The land was used for personal recreation for several years. I've spent countless hours hiking and enjoying observing the seasons, plants, fungus and animals. The vision of a campground was inspired by many camping and backcountry spots throughout the United States, all of the amazing things in the woods, the beautiful blufftop valley views, proximity to a multitude of outdoor activities and adventures.

Hello friends! Thanks for your interest in Balsam Ridge Retreat! Many folks that have visited our place refer to it as 'country living in the city'. We are so blessed to live in this little piece of serenity just inside the city limits of Duluth. Our home was once an abandoned house that sat for years until a friend mentioned to us that it might be going up for sale. We loved the location and rolled up our sleeves. Twenty years later we still marvel at the beauty around us and can hardly believe that we LIVE here! Just down the road is a trout stream and beyond that was a popular farm that attracted many folks to this neighborhood for hay rides and sleigh rides. The farm has since retired its horses and closed its doors to make room for new homes, but memories live on in the beauty of the open fields. I often imagine the sound of horses and sleigh bells and people singing carols and then warming up around a toasty fire sipping hot cocoa. Some of those memories live on right here at Balsam Ridge (minus the horses). Over the years many groups of folks have enjoyed a sense of community in these back woods no matter the season. Campfires, kids catching frogs, neighborhood campouts, snow picnics, hair-raising toboggan runs, family campouts, spiritual silent retreats, a take-your-breath-away giant swing, and some tales too daring to mention are all part of the fun. This is why we do what we do. We've been given much, and love to give back. It just wouldn't seem right to keep all this good to ourselves.

Taylors Falls, MN · 4 sites · Tents, Lodging

Situated on 36 acres, this working farm is 2 miles West of Taylors Falls. Dan bought this property with the intention of growing stone fruits (plums, peaches, apricots and cherries) using sustainable and organic practices because health and wellness matter to them! They are still in the process of improving their property. Many of the building on the property were in poor condition, including the old barn foundation which is now one of Dan and Danielle favorite places to keep cool in the summer. After they had excavated all the debris (which took years) they were able to transform it with gardens and fire pit for all to enjoy. They love sharing what they have been blessed with! They hope you enjoy their place as much as they do! Feel free to ask them to show you around or even get your hands dirty with them as they plant or harvest.

Houston, MN · 4 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Welcome ; Located in southeast Minnesota's Driftless region of hills, valleys, fields and forests, we are a grass based working dairy farm with over 100 acres of woodland, including an extensive trail system and campsites in our wooded acres. What makes this woodland special is it's quiet, secluded setting and over 6 miles of hiking / skiing trails. Our farmstead sits three quarter of a mile off the paved county highway on our well maintained gravel driveway. Each of our campsites are secluded from the others with their own sawdust compost toilets, picnic tables, fireplaces, and firewood. Two of our sites require 4WD with a minimum of 6 inches ground clearance to access, and two are accessible with 2WD. If you do not have 4WD we can help transport your gear while you enjoy the walk in. There are plenty of woodland birds, deer, turkeys, raccoons and squirrels sharing the woods with you. At night it is common for owls to visit the campsite area to say hello, and coyotes talking in the distance. The winding trails through 100 acres of woodland offer a variety of woodland habitats, from Old growth Maple to mixed hardwood, to dense brush, to the edges of open pastureland. Bring your fat bike or mountain bike for an enjoyable ride. For winter users there is a mix of easy, moderate, and challenging winter cross country skiing or snowshoeing / hiking on the property. However the Rock Bottom Cabin is our only heated and insulated site and is available for winter booking. Winter access is walk in only with snow on the ground or in the forecast. We can help transport gear. This property is part of a working pasture-based dairy farm and guided tours of the dairy and cattle are available when scheduling allows. Children 12 and younger are free at our campsites. No need to be counted as guests , but please let us know when requesting to book. We do not allow non-booked visitors to our campsites due to the secluded, remote location, and accessibility.

Weekend Trip to Balsam Ridge Retreat

5 stars! A special place indeed. Linda and Chris have created something genuinely special at The Stuga. From the moment we arrived it was clear that every detail had been thought through — absolutely perfect! Spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and stocked with everything you could possibly need before you knew you needed it including binoculars. But the real magic happened outside. Falling asleep to singing frogs, waking to an owl calling in the early morning quiet, and wandering paths lit by the most enchanting trail lights I've ever seen — it felt like the property had its own rhythm and we were lucky enough to slip into it for a few days. The other guests were warm and easy — the kind of people a place like this seems to attract. We will absolutely be back. Places this thoughtfully run and this quietly beautiful don't come along often. If you're considering it, stop considering and just go.

We absolutely love this place. And, we love Linda and Chris. This is our second time to visit Duluth. We stayed here last time, and didn't have to give a second thought to where we would stay when we returned this time. It's a place set apart; you're fully immersed in nature and peace. They've thoughtfully set up contemplative gathering spots that feel whimsical and cozy.

My wife and I enjoyed The Little Cabin. The area was quiet. We enjoyed walking through the trails Troy has mowed on the property. The wren family living in the birdhouse next door was fun to watch as they went about their day. My wife especially loved the grand old basswood tree we found on the property.

Glamping at the Stuga @Balsam Ridge was wonderful! The property was well maintained with lots of amazing special touches - the string lights, all the beautiful community spaces, and our little cabin the Stuga. Our favorite was the two swings the Dreamer and the Screamer! To top it off the hosts are great people - my daughter and I really enjoyed meeting them and hearing a little history about Balsam Ridge. Thank you for sharing your space it made for a wonderful weekend away!

An excellent secluded glamping experience that our dogs loved as much as us. The cabin was very well maintained and has access to a clean bathroom/shower and a very easy to use kitchen area. A great fire pit for family fun and lots of space to kids and pets to play. We highly recommend it to anyone.

Weekend Trip to 16 Squared Cabin

Amanda’s cabin was EXACTLY what we needed! My cat Bones and I stayed here for one night. The beds were clean and comfortable, the wood burning stove is beautiful and effective. The outhouse was clean and not too far away. For only being there for one night, we experienced and enjoyed maximum levels of nature! A beautiful owl silently landed in the long grass of the field at dusk (maybe hunting?), I walked around the pretty pond, listening to the symphony of frogs. Just around midnight, a pack of coyotes investigated our camp! They were howling and making amazing “laughing” sounds. Absolutely beautiful. Preparing breakfast the next morning, I glanced out the window and spotted a massive moose trudging around in the pond! He was moving through the reeds, sipping the water and munching on the green vegetation. So cool! This cabin was affordable, easy to get to, suitable for all vehicles (I was in a heavily weighed down Prius, so minimal clearance), parking very close to cabin, private, packed with wildlife, and most of all, has a wonderful, friendly, and responsive host! I’ll definitely be coming back when in the area. Thank you, Amanda!

Weekend Trip to Balsam Ridge Retreat

Our family had a wonderful stay in Gokatta! We originally booked it as just a place to sleep while exploring around Duluth, but we loved the property so much that we spent most of our day there. All of the sites are very unique, and there are so many fun things to find throughout the whole property. Our tent was such a cozy place to stay, it was clean, and had all of the amenities that we needed. Chris and Linda were the most kind and hospitable hosts that we have ever had! 2 weeks later and the giant swing is still a daily talking point for my kids. We will definitely be staying again, and are already planning our next visit to explore one of the other sites that they have. Would highly recommend anyone to stay here!
