Why Camp If You Can Glamp?

Luxury Camping Destinations of California

Spending time outdoors and getting back to nature is a quintessential aspect of summer.  But does being outside have to be so rough?  The answer is: Nope.  These luxury camping accommodations throughout California will having you feel one with nature, while still being able to sleep comfortably in a king-sized bed and take a hot shower. –Sounds pretty perfect to me!

First up on our tour-de-glamourous camping experiences is the Treebones Resort in Big Sur.  Just an hour north of the elegant Hearst Castle, Treebones Resort consists of 16 Mongolian-style yurts, 1 secluded cocoon-shaped tent, and last, but not least, a beachside campsite where you can sleep in a human nest!  All options have sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean.  Enjoy all the beauty of nature and living ruggedly and then head on over to the spa to get a massage or to one of the daily outdoor yoga classes.  You’ll feel just like John Muir whilst you grab a beer at the resort’s sushi bar, just like the early settlers did… Right?

If you love a mixture of art, the desert, and living in a fanciful tent, the Desert Yacht Club may be the perfect place for you!  Owned and operated by artist Alessandro Giuliano, you are sure to be enchanted by this whimsical campsite!   The Desert Yacht Club experience is a fusion of Italian style in a rustic, western setting, with art installations interwoven throughout the desert landscape. The facility is equipped with multiple campsites, including one that is a boat on a ridge (i.e. SUPER Instagram-worthy)!  Each camp unit features its own fire pit, couch and dining area. There is also a common area, where you can find a charging station, pool, bar, shaded dining area and wagon-inspired full kitchen with standing view that has a grill and refrigerator. Outdoor, enclosed restrooms and showers with warm water year-round are available for guests on the campground.  Put on your best festival-inspired outfits, frolic around and make everyone jealous of your bohemian vibes!

Finally, there is nothing as All-American as camping-out in a vintage Airstream trailer. The Malibu Dream Airstream has been stripped down to the studs and redesigned into a large, open studio with 3 large glass panels that open into a deck that boasts unrivaled views of Malibu Beach, Channel Islands and Deer Creek Canyon.  Drive down the hill to Malibu where you can surf and enjoy fine dining.  Or stay-in at your oasis on the hill, enjoying starry nights void of any light pollution.  Everyone will be envious of your incredible pictures of you and your friends having the time of your lives.  Even Taylor Swift has hung out at this amazing location – so you know it’s good!
