Grab a friend and gear up for a glamorous outdoors overnight trip this summer. Instead of struggling to pitch a tent in the sticky summer heat, dealing with bug bites, and going to the bathroom in the great outdoors, try something the complete opposite: glamping.
If camping under the stars sounds appealing, but you can’t do without the little luxuries—a hot shower, say, or a soft bed— then glamping is definitely for you. And there’s no better place to enjoy nature with some upscale necessities than the Hudson Valley, where all sorts of options await. Here are a few of the best ones we’ve found this season.

The Nest
Woodstock
Set on two private acres, this tent has a carpeted sleeping quarter with a queen-sized bed and sitting area. There are board games if you get tired of listening to the birds and plenty of blankets for cool nights. Steps away, you’ll find a kitchen and screened-in gazebo, plus a porta-potty, outdoor shower, and a fire pit. If you hanker for civilization, you’re a short drive from Woodstock, Saugerties, and Kingston.
Other Amenities: Propane grill, mini fridge, coffee maker, cookware and kitchen utensils, dishware, water cooler with hot and cold H2O, lanterns, bedding
Sleeps: 2 to 4 campers (extra twin mattresses included)
What You’ll Spend: $185 a night
Pet Policy: Fur babies are welcome for an extra $50.

Colden Spring Farms
Walden
On this 42-acre sustainable vegetable and livestock farm, plop down on one of the Adirondack chairs in front of your tent and gaze at the rolling fields. The tent is set on a platform and comes with a queen-sized bed, complete with memory foam mattress. There’s a sun shower (a solar-heated bag that holds five gallons of H2O and hangs from a tree) and a Tentrr loo (a toilet seat atop a box with a bucket lined with biodegradable bags) in a smaller tent nearby. Angry Orchard’s Cider House and City Winery are a few minutes drive—as are many wineries along the Shawangunk Wine Trail.
Other Amenities: A fire pit, camp table and benches, a grill, grilling utensils, lanterns, and flashlights. For an extra fee, you can rent linens and pillows (otherwise, bring your own), pots and pans, dishes for six, and a cornhole set. You can also buy fresh farm eggs.
Sleeps: 6 campers
What You’ll Spend: $125 night
Pet Policy: Dogs welcome, no extra fee

Treetopia
Catskill
This isn’t your parents’ campground. Instead, the Treetopia gives you plenty of luxe glamping options, including AirStreams kitted out with full baths and kitchens and A/C, as well as A-frame cabins and canvas tents. Swim in the pool, hike, walk your dog, or just relax in front of your lodgings. You can hook your own RV at Treetopia, too. The season ends in October, so act fast!
Other Amenities: Public restrooms with indoor/outdoor showers and toilets; small grocery store that carries typical campground sundries (including ice cream, coffee, and firewood); a game room with a pool table, arcade games and sofas for TV watching. Plus, you’re close to Catskill, Olana, and Catskill Park.
Sleeps: Depends on what you book. The Jumbo RV is good for a family of 5 or 4 adults; the standard, a family of 4 (or 3 adults); the tents, a max of 3 people.
Pet Policy: Accommodates most pets
What You’ll Spend: Ranges from $65–$450. Discounts offered for week-long stays.
