Best Glamping near Fort Riley, KS

Acorn RV Resort houses the region's most diverse glamping accommodations at Milford Lake, featuring lakeside yurts with wooden floors, comfortable beds, electricity, and climate control. Nearby, Cedar Point at Milford State Park provides luxury canvas tents alongside premium waterfront views and modern amenities including private decks and kitchenettes. Both locations offer fully-furnished glamping options with linens provided, electricity, and convenient access to shower facilities.

Water activities dominate the glamping experience with direct lake access at most sites. Milford Lake supports kayaking, swimming, and fishing directly from glamping accommodations, while hiking trails connect glamping areas to beach access points. The resort marina at Acorn provides boat rentals and fishing gear for glampers seeking water recreation. On-site dining is available at Acorn's restaurant where guests can enjoy sunset views from the grand patio overlooking the lake. A visitor noted, "Traveled in 38' Class A Motorhome. Totally awesome resort - everything you need... from cabin, rv, tent or yurks! Nestled on a beautiful lake." Most glamping accommodations remain open year-round, though water activities are seasonal from April through September. Reservations are required and can be made online through The Dyrt or directly with the resorts.

Randolph — Tuttle Creek State Park
Nice State Campground
Stayed here for a couple nights, its a nice campground but fairly busy with close proximity to Manhattan and Fort Riley as well as the ORV park. Predominantly RV campers and off road rigs. We were able to snag a drive up tent spot and had no neighbors which was nice and relaxing.

Very Nice But Noisy
This is a nice campground with pull-through spots, playground, nice washroom/showers. Some spots even have concrete patios with fire pits and grills. A few tiny cabins and a “glamping” tent. The only negative is that the sites are very close together and it is right off I-70 which is very noisy all night long.

KOA Campground Salina
Cool pool and campground!
We tent camped here and enjoyed our stay. The food, pizza, was excellent. The staff brought our order to our site. We enjoyed a swim in the pool to cool off due to the temperature being in mid 90's. The bathrooms were air conditioned and clean. Overall, this campground is a good one and we recommend it!

KOA Campground Salina
Great stop, family friendly!
KOA did not disappoint here. Right off the highway, there is some road noise but for someone passing through it was great because it didn’t add more miles to our trip. We have a 5th wheel so with the AC running at night we didn’t hear the road noise.

Spots are wide enough to allow space and not on top of neighbors. We got a deluxe patio site. Very convenient so we did not have to pull out are grill and outdoor furniture for just an overnight stay. Had a fire pit and gas grill (that was remarkably clean and had all clean utensils inside for grilling!)

The store has fresh pizza and ice cream available, as well as some small grocery needs, and there is a big selection for Rv accessories/parts.

The kids loved the pool. There are 2 pools one circular one 3ft on sides 6 in the center. And a smaller rectangle one that is a kiddie pool. My son is 40 inches and he could touch the entire length. They have a gator pulling train cart, pedal carts, a jumping pad, basketball hoops that are adjustable and an outdoor ping pong table. Also a playground that could use some updates. And a fenced in dog park.

Overall a great stop for one night, and if I ever find myself driving through Kansas again I will definitely stay again.

Nice little Gem
Very nice campground. Each RV site is equipped with a fire pit, gas grill, table, chairs and umbrella. Campground is very clean and quiet. They serve an amazing weekend breakfast at a very low price. Whether you are here overnight or for a few days, you will not be disappointed.

Always reliable, KOA campground.
KOA campgrounds are a quick stopover for us, never a destination. This location has it all. Cabins, tent sites. Great RV sites, even a yurt! Some highway noise. Clean, great kid play area (with ping pong) and a nice playground. New furniture provided and built in fire pits.

Quick and easy
Quick, easy, and inexpensive stay right off the interstate. Water and electric on site and easy pull through parking spots. Clean bathroom and shower. Not very quiet considering the interstate is right next to it.
