Trends / Unique Itineraries & Tours

Everyone should be able to enjoy all of the beauty nature has to offer, even if we’re not all eager to get down and dirty to do so. If you prefer a little less “rugged” and a little more “glam” in your camping, you should try glamping in the Pacific Northwest.

 

Wanderlust Camps, Orcas Island, Wash.

Nestled in Moran State Park, Wanderlust Camps offers canvas-covered tents with queen-sized beds, wool blankets, towels, dressers, chairs, picnic tables and a grill. It’s surrounded by 30 miles of hiking trails in some of Washington’s best forest landscape.

 

Pampered Wilderness, Olympia, Wash.

Pampered Wilderness is another fabulous spot a short drive outside of Seattle, where you’ll find canvas platform cabins with wood floors and beams, along with king-sized beds with memory-foam mattresses. You’ll be living like a queen in the middle of the forest.

RimRock Inn, Enterprise, Ore.

Have you ever wanted to live like a Native American? Well, you’ll come close at RimRock Inn where you’ll sleep in a teepee with down pillows and an on-site restaurant offering traditional American fare like biscuits and gravy. Okay, so maybe it won’t be like living as a Native American at all, but it’s still kind of cool.

 

Linn Canyon Ranch, Victor, Idaho

A little further inland, you’ll find Linn Canyon Ranch, where there rests luxurious sleeping tents, king-sized beds and some pretty spectacular views of the Teton Mountain Range. It’s situated on an actual ranch, so you’ll be able to ride a horse or two around the foothills to really take it in.
