Best Glamping near Sebring, FL

Westgate River Ranch Resort & Rodeo and River Ranch RV Resort offer luxury glamping accommodations about an hour northeast of Sebring, featuring safari-style canvas tents and spacious yurts with full amenities. Both properties provide high-end camping experiences with comfortable beds, electricity, and private bathrooms in most glamping units. "My family and I stayed here for a little over a week and wish we could stay longer. The lots were beautiful, spacious and private," noted one visitor about their River Ranch experience. These glamping sites are particularly family-friendly, with large tent platforms, furnished interiors, and climate control systems that maintain comfort year-round. Peace River Campground and Lake Rosalie Campground also offer glamping options with varying levels of luxury, from basic canvas structures to fully-equipped accommodation units.

Fossil hunting along Peace River emerges as a distinctive activity for glampers, with shark teeth collection being particularly popular among families. The properties provide specialized equipment for this unique experience, including wire mesh baskets available at some locations. One reviewer highlighted, "The highlight of this park was collecting shark and sting ray teeth along the river." Beyond water activities, guests can enjoy on-site entertainment including weekend rodeos at Westgate River Ranch, a petting farm with numerous animals, horseback riding, and rock climbing zones for children. Wildlife viewing opportunities abound, with alligators frequently spotted along riverbanks and hiking trails winding through native Florida habitats. Most glamping properties in the region remain open year-round, with winter months (December through March) representing peak season when advance reservations are strongly recommended.

Kilpatrick Hammock Campground — Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park
Long way from nowhere
Expect a long travel to this remote site. It’s a couple miles of reasonably decent dirt roads to get there, after several miles of remote highways. The only designated dark sky site in Florida. It does not disappoint for night sky viewing. If you’re camping here, please be courteous and keep your outdoor lights to a minimum. The night sky’s are just breathtaking. Check www.spotthestation.nasa.gov to see if you’ll get a glimpse of the space station while your there. Hiking/biking trails are plentiful. Be aware that there’s a LOT of loose sand. So even on a mountain bike you’ll have to walk now and then. Great birding. Crested cara cara are frequent as are flocks of turkey strolling through the campsites. Be sure to head out the road you came in back to the first turn and take the trail to the left (as you’re leaving). There’s a gator hole just 1/4 mile down the trail. Nature trail is a nice hammock view. No pets on that particular trail.

There are 2 camp loops only the first camp loop has a bath house, which is very nice. The equestrian camp has porta potties. Many of those folks drive over to the bathhouse. Even the bathhouse has outdoor red lights.

Lake Kissimmee State Park Campground
Peaceful & Beautiful Spot
We got into this site with a last minute cancellation over Labor Day weekend. It was a beautiful location! We had site 43 which was secluded from neighbors and in full shade. The back of the site opened to an open field and we constantly saw deer walking through the grounds. We also saw many armadillos and turkey! Site had water and electric as well as a fire pit and picnic bench. Each loop has a bathhouse and laundry unit. Sewage dump was clean and easy. Campground also has a general store with some essentials, snacks, WiFi and live bait. There’s water for fishing and a cleaning station, although we didn’t catch anything you could see the fish jumping constantly. There’s plenty of trails and an observation tower. We will be back!

Kilpatrick Hammock Campground — Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park
Awesome stargazing and wildlife
If you love camping, wildlife, and stargazing but still want the convenience of amenities (i.e electricity, running water, bathroom, shower) then this is the place for you.

Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park is part of IDA International Dark-Sky Places. The park has little light pollution and also a stargazing pad where you can also camp on.

The campgrounds aren't large but the campsites are good for tents and RVs. The one site we stayed at had water and electric hook-ups and a firepit. We were close to very clean restroom area that also had showers, washer and dryer. They do have primitive campsites for the more rustic individuals. The campgrounds are about 45 minutes from town, but the ranger station sells ice for $2.50 and firewood purchase is by honor system. We also saw other campers with their dogs so pet-friendly as well.

Lots of hiking trails and so much wildlife. We saw deer grazing near our campsite!

Make sure to bring lots of mosquito repellent, especially in the summer months. Otherwise you'll get bit...a lot! But it is Florida after all.

Kilpatrick Hammock Campground — Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park
Simple and well maintained
Our visit was relaxing and enjoyable. We visited in July and the shade from all the trees around our site helped keep the heat tolerable. The camp site’s aren’t dispersed and a little close together but we didn’t have any immediate neighbors around us so it was perfect. We stayed on site 008 and it was spacious enough for our large cabin tent, picnic table, additional table, dog pool, chairs, etc. Our site is conveniently close to the bathrooms. I liked that there is only one main dumpster and it’s kept a distance from the camp sites. I think this helped keep any raccoons that may have been around away from the campers. AMAZING star gazing location.

Westgate River Ranch Resort & Rodeo
River Ranch RV Resort
You can get a RV site through Westgate which is more of a field or through River Ranch RV Resort which has full hook-ups. We stayed on a waterfront site at River Ranch RV Resort and it was perfect! We were able to fish right off the dock at our site, there was a fit pit and grill, as well as seating outside (each site could be configured differently). At Westgate River Ranch (walking distance from our site but still got a golf cart) we went to the rodeo on Saturday night, did a swamp buggy ride, skeet shooting, petting zoo and rode a mechanical bull... and there was still more we could have done but ran out of time since we still wanted to relax some 🙃 If you're looking for a great site with tons of activities available River Ranch RV Resort is the place for you!

Thousand Trails Peace River
Enjoyed our stay
This was our second Thousand Trails stay. Unlike The Oaks at Point South you have to find your own spot. It's a little unnerving. Fortunately, we had a few to choose from as soon as we arrived. There are a few paved roads but others are not. It had just rained a lot due to Hurricane Eta and there are huge potholes. So go slow!!!! We chose D14, back in. All of their sites are back in and they stress that over and over. FHU, no shade at our site, picnic table, fire ring with flip grill, grass pad. Fire rings are close to your neighbors camper b/c of mowing. Just move it. No cable or WiFi. Great Verizon. Pool was suppose to be open but they had to redo the pool deck. It was open the last day we were there and it's very nice. There is road noise, with air on not a problem. The back part of part is closed b/c of drainage issues. The site next to us the electricy didn't work which was great for us. Extra room! The sites are very spacious. In the winter when it's crowded they have a system of getting sites. Our water hookup didn't have a handle. Notified the office and it was fixed. You don't see staff out much at all. In a week, I saw 2 employees drive by.

Peace River Campground
What an Adventure!!
This campground was easy to get to and has lots to do near by. There is the town of Arcadia nearby with local history and restaurants if you feel like a hot meal on a rainy night. Orif you forgot something there is a grocery store near by as well. It is conveniently located next to the canoe rental place as well. You can spend the day paddeling down the river, fishing or sifting through the sediment looking for fossils from all different time periods. The campground is located right off of the river so you can bring your own canoe or kayak. Pets are welcome but beware of alligators especially during mating season there are plenty to be seen at any time. We camped twice in the primitive area. This area is all sand dunes first come first serve perfect for atvs and golf carts with lots of trails. If you are camping in this area I’d suggest wet wipes, toilet paper and sanitizer, there are outhouses but they haven’t been upkept well the two times we visited. There are bathrooms in the rv area by the office as well. These are the best I’ve seen yet, each toilet has its own door that locks behind it, the showers have their own separate lockable rooms as well, these get cleaned every morning. There are laundry facilities, a pool, a petting zoo, and a restaurant that opens on the weekends. You can buy simple camping equipment, snacks, firewood and ice at the office, they are very helpful. Overall this is a fun campground, plenty to do for all ages.

KOA Campground Okeechobee
A great place for families and kids...
This is the largest KOA in the country...It's a Great campground for families, although I didn't go with one...There is an adult only pool, and a family pool. The Shanty, a bar is right by the adult pool, with entertainment in season and mostly on weekends. I've been there many times in the past, with my TT and my Coach...The sites are mostly large enough for Big rigs...There are upgrades to deluxe sites with brick patios, barbeques, fire pits and chairs. It's a very busy place on the holidays...If you want quiet those days, I don't suggest you go there...There is also a Golf Course, Golf Cart Rental, A nice updated store, A fenced in Dog park...
