Picture yourself sipping a perfectly chilled chardonnay (or your varietal of choice) while watching the sunset paint rows of vineyards in golden hues—all from the comfort of your tent or RV.
Welcome to winery camping, where outdoor adventures meet sophisticated sips. Camping on wineries and vineyards makes for experiences that are equal parts rustic charm and refined pleasure—all without the crowds. To help you plan your next wine lover’s camping escape, we’ve gathered 12 wine country gems that offer private camping spots with misty vineyard views, award-winning wine tastings, and sips under the stars.


From basic boondocking to full hookups at RV sites, vineyard camping experiences can be as diverse as the wine varieties. Some wineries offer designated camping spots among the vines, while others have RV and tent sites overlooking the cellars. You can also find vineyards that take a more rustic approach with dispersed camping areas where you can choose your own space on the property—or even options for glampers like heated yurts or canvas tents.
Amenities vary by location, so Hipcamp filters are the best way to find exactly what you need. Aside from potable water, showers, toilets, and hookups, many properties also include special perks for campers like complimentary wine tastings, exclusive cellar tours, or maybe even a partnership with a local distillery or brewery to add to the experience. See some of our favorite below, but remember: These camping spots can fill up faster than your favorite wine glass!
The Lakes in Chelan County, Washington, is appropriately named, as the 60-acre property is surrounded by three: Wapato Lake, Roses Lake, and Dry Lake. The much larger Lake Chelan is also just a short distance away, with Willow Point Park on the eastern shore offering a swimming beach and a kids’ playground. Aside from the nearby shores, while camping with a water view at The Lakes, campers can enjoy on-site wine tasting as well as hiking, fishing, and hunting around the mountain vistas of Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Camping amenities include a portable toilet and potable water.

Bask in high-elevation wildflower views while sipping during a cider or wine tasting (offered year-round). Winery camping options here include safari and bell tents, RV sites with potable water (but no hookups), and a basic tent campsite with a picnic table set under old oak trees. Taste the region’s high-altitude zinfandel and Rhône varietals at some of the other nearby wineries in El Dorado County, or hit the water at the Consumnes River for a swim or Jenkinson Lake for paddleboarding. Fall is the best time of year for days at nearby Apple Hill, while winter glampers can take day trips to Lake Tahoe for ski and snowboarding adventures.
