Enjoy outdoor adventures, culture, history, and epic fall colors when glamping Connecticut.
When glamping Connecticut, you're never too far from scenic beauty or an outdoor adventure. The Nutmeg State may be small but it packs a lot in, with a landscape of coastal towns and country villages, rolling hills and river valleys, farmland, and forests. In the summer, hit the beach at Hammonasset Beach State Park or Bantam Lake, set sail on the Long Island Sound, or paddle or fish the state’s many rivers and lakes, including at Mashamoquet Brook, Hopeville Pond, and Kettletown state parks. Get cultured in New Haven, Hartford, and Norfolk, then explore a medieval castle at Gillette Castle State Park. In the fall, admire the fall colors at Lake Waramaug State Park, or hike the Appalachian Trail or the New England National Scenic Trail. Most Connecticut state parks offer rustic cabins, while private options include safari tents, yurts, tipis, domes, treehouses, tiny houses, and luxury trailers, with amenities to enjoy a comfortable stay.
In Connecticut, glamping is a type of outdoor stay combining camping's nature setting with the luxury and convenience of comforts like beds, warm showers, or electricity. When glamping in Connecticut, there's no need to bring your own tent—instead, glampers may stay the night in a cabin, a vintage Airstream, a canvas bell tent, a yurt, or even a treehouse.
