Best Glamping in Colorado

2,917 Reviews

Colorado glamping combines luxury camping amenities with outdoor adventure, ranging from furnished safari tents with 1,500 thread-count sheets to rustic yurts with wood stoves and basic bedding. The Views RV Park & Campground leads TheDyrt's rankings with scenic glamping tents positioned for mountain views, while BASECAMP 550 near Ouray offers both glamping tents and casitas with full amenities and ranch views. Royal Gorge Cabins provides luxury camping tents with queen beds, radiant floor heating, and furnished outdoor patios, though guests share nearby shower facilities rather than having private bathrooms.

Yurts represent Colorado's most popular glamping option, available at state parks like Pearl Lake and Ridgway with electric heat, power, beds, and outdoor fire rings for year-round use. State park yurts typically accommodate up to six people with circular skylights and require minimum two-night stays, while private glamping destinations like Dunton River Camp offer safari-style tents with full bathrooms, mountain bikes, and luxury resort amenities. Canvas tents and bell tents provide middle-ground options with furnished sleeping areas, electrical outlets, and deck spaces, though bathroom facilities usually remain communal.

Glamping reservations in Colorado range from $45 per night for basic furnished tents to $270 for premium luxury accommodations with full kitchens and private bathrooms. Seasonal availability typically runs April through October for most tent-based glamping, while yurts operate year-round with winter access sometimes requiring snowshoes or skis. Popular glamping destinations cluster around national parks and scenic areas, with locations near Rocky Mountain National Park, Great Sand Dunes, and Colorado Springs filling quickly during summer months. Pet policies vary significantly between properties, with some glamping sites welcoming pets for additional fees while others maintain pet-free environments.

    The Views RV Park & Campground

    Hidden Gem

    Lovely Campground! Scenic views and very clean park! Bathrooms are cleaner than mine at home. Laundry Facilities nice. Great community outdoor kitchen area. Glamping tents looked nice and positioned for fantastic views. Owners were very nice and Bentley the cat was a friendly mascot! Great sleeping here!

    BASECAMP 550

    Great Location and Atmosphere

    We had an amazing stay at Basecamp 550. The campground’s location is perfect, with easy access to Ouray, Montrose, Telluride, and other nearby areas. The amenities were excellent, including quarter-operated hot showers and laundry, restrooms, Wi-Fi, full hookups, and a clubhouse with coffee + tea, kitchen access, and a great workspace. Our site had a beautiful view and was right next to a ranch where cows would come right up to the fence. The communal fire pit was a nice touch, and the private, fenced-in setting made us feel safe and comfortable. They also offer glamping tents and casitas on the property. Highly recommend!

    Ouray KOA

    Heaven in the mountains

    Wow is all I can say! After surviving towing the airstream up Red Mountain pass, we pulled into the KOA and couldn’t be more happy. Our site backed up to a stream that sounded wonderful with running water. Each site has a picnic table and a combo fire ring/grill. They even welcome you with three large fire logs! They now offer horseback riding right from inside the KOA. They have everything from teepees to tent, cabin and RV camping. A great restaurant on site with a well stocked store and laundry facilities. This place is really well run. The only complaint is the WiFi, which is non existent, however, they are currently working on that and should have campwide WiFi by summer.

    North Park Campground

    Not well kept, but has potential

    Was an old KOA. In fact, there are two typical KOA A frame buildings that need to be torn down due to their lack of upkeep. The grounds were overgrown with weeds knee high.

    Lone Duck Campground and Cabins

    Good Home Base

    Lone Duck Campground was a good home base for us during our visit to Colorado Springs. The campground is several miles down from Woodland Park and about the same down to Manitou and the Springs. We were out and about during the days, but Lone Duck was nice to return to each afternoon.

    Reservations were easy to do online. They had the site ready for us when we arrived.

    Site 45 was great for our pop up. If we had our 30’ trailer, we wouldn’t have had room for our truck. The site is right next to a lovely stream that really drowned out any road noise. We slept great with the white noise the stream produced. Our site had a picnic table and fire pit (with grill grate). We had water and 30/20 amp electric.

    The bathrooms/showers were in the main office. The men’s restroom had a couple of stalls and three showers. They were sufficient for me. The women’s restroom was small and cramped according to my wife. It appears the floors and walls had been coated with a garage floor or bed-liner material. It wasn’t the most appealing but again was sufficient. We did use the laundry room and all machines worked fine.

    There is a store, small dining area, and arcade in the main office along with the restrooms and laundry room. Wifi was hit or miss from the campsites. It was better inside the office. The check in staff was aware of the wifi and mentioned they were working on it. (We weren’t here for the internet so again, not an issue for us).

    The kids did swim in the pool. The water was warm and they seemed to enjoy playing with other kiddos there. There is a small playground next to the pool and fishing pond. Kids played there frequently until quiet hours.

    There are a few small cabins on the grounds and separate sections of the park for tents. There are houses just across the stream from our site but we never heard from or noticed any of the neighbors.

    There is quite a bit of greenery throughout the campground. I thought the place could use a mowing or weed eating, but maybe it’s normal to have local grasses/plants left alone to grow.

    As others have mentioned it is a bit tricky getting in and out. If you leave toward Woodland Park, you’ll have to cross a couple of lanes and make u-turn. Same thing of your coming to the campground from Manitou. You’ll make a u-turn.

    Overall, we liked the place and would stay again.

    Valley View Hot Springs—Orient Land Trust - CLOTHING OPTIONAL

    Came for the daily soak - stayed for the camping

    This place was great! We originally planned just to do a daily soak before heading to our next campsite but ended up just staying here because we enjoyed it so much. The camp sites were simple but great and you have total access to all hot springs, bathrooms, showers, sauna, AND a communal outdoor kitchen. We participated in the clothing optional experience but didn’t feel like we had to. Great people all around from guests to staff. Highly recommend!

    The Views RV Park & Campground

    We’ll Be Back

    We stayed in the “primitive” glamping tent, and were completely thrilled. The bed was comfy, the tent kept us dry during storms, and we had room to entertain our friends. We cooked out in the pavilion twice, used the laundry room and showers, and all were great. Best of all, Matt & team were so kind and accommodating. We wouldn’t have left if we didn’t have to, and we can’t wait to visit again!

    Palisade Basecamp RV Resort

    One night on the river

    We came from 6 nights in the mountains and spent 1 night in our rooftop tent on an electric river site. It was the perfect spot in Palisade. The bathhouse was very clean and convenient. One side of the building had men and women restrooms with showers. The other side had family bathrooms with one toilet, one shower, and one sink. The bathhouse was air conditioned which was very appreciated! It was hot out!!! While we were sitting around our firebox campfire, staff rolled up on a golf cart with fresh peaches to try that were picked that day. That was a nice surprise! We bought one for later in our trip!

    Cripple Creek KOA

    Beautiful scenery and WONDERFUL owners/staff

    This little gem hidden away in the mountains was a perfect spot for our Mother/Son roadtrip. We originally got a delux tent spot with water and electric but when a storm came through and blew our tent down and since we had been roughing it for the past few days it really made for some bad times but we were able to upgrade into a cabin and it made our night so much better. The family who runs the KOA were so welcoming and kind. They gave us information on a good fishing spot where my 7 yr old son caught his first trout and he fed his tribe. Lol everything was so clean. There are washers and dryers available. They had a nice gift shop and provided a s’mores night for the campers for free. They have pancake breakfast for $3 on Saturday and Sunday ( not always). Overall it was an amazing place to camp everything was reasonably priced and lots of activities for the kids. Board games were able to be checked out, there was a game room where the kids spent most of their time. There is a dog park area. Hummingbirds enjoyed the area as well

    They had an outdoor kitchen with cast iron skillets for the campers to use as well as a stove and two big charcoal grills up at the main building

    Very nice KOA

    also it’s the WORLDS HIGHEST KOA @ 10,000 ft
