8 Best Glamping Places In Texas To Visit This Summer

Texas offers a number of attractive features, including great beaches, charming small towns, and an abundance of open space perfect for camping. For those seeking a more comfortable camping experience than a traditional sleeping bag on the ground, Texas is also home to various glamping destinations.

The term "glamping," a fusion of "glamor" and "camping," introduces a luxurious and comfortable twist to the typical rustic camping adventure, offering options such as safari-style tents, country cabins, vintage RVs and modern treehouses. These unique accommodations offer an upscale camping experience throughout Lone Star State, allowing travelers to enjoy the outdoors in greater comfort and style.

Several glamping alternatives are available at Basecamp Terlingua, a hidden gem in the Chihuahuan Desert, including casitas, lotus tents and even "bubbles" The lotus tents are onion-shaped tents that are a bit more robust because they are not sealed or insulated, but they have evaporative cooler in the summer and a space heater in the winter. The casitas are gorgeous adobe houses with outdoor showers and firepits. The bubbles, clear vinyl domes positioned away from the other rooms for privacy and stargazing, are undoubtedly the site's most striking offering.
