Whether you love glamping gear or you know someone who does, there are tons of things out there that’ll take even the coolest campsites to the next level. Shop everything from skillets to string lights in the list below and get ready to glamp it up in the great outdoors.
1. Wacaco Minipresso Portable Espresso Machine
Mornings are better with coffee, especially when you’re camping. After long hikes and late-night campfires, you’re going to need an energy boost. Fuel up one shot at a time with this mini portable espresso machine. The gadget is super easy to use and doesn’t require any power except that of your own two hands.
2. GSI Outdoors Pioneer Enamelware Table Set
Paper plates are flimsy and plastic ones are for camping. This enamel tableware set, though, was made for glamping. The plates, bowls and mugs are made from heavy gauge steel, which means they won’t crack or break. And you can choose between a blue or green classic speckled enamel finish to match the rest of your glamping gear.
3. Lodge Cast Iron Skillet
Sure, you could technically bring a grill or stove to cook meals, but it wouldn’t be as aesthetically pleasing as a cast iron skillet. Cook everything from flapjacks to frittatas with this 12-inch pre-seasoned pan and don’t forget to snap a few photos before digging in!
4. Hennessy Ultralite Backpacker Classic
Just because you’re glamping doesn’t mean you’ll have blue skies all weekend. When the storms roll in, make the most of things and kick back in a covered hammock. Use the rainfly to waterproof your private lounge area. Then, string up your sling and soak in the soothing sounds of rainfall.
5. Lucid Pro Lux Inflatable Solar Lantern
If you’re tent glamping, you‘ll probably have to live without electric luxuries like light bulbs. But that doesn’t mean you have to stumble to the bathroom. Light up the night with a solar lantern. This one doubles as a sun-powered phone charger and can last up to 50 hours on a single charge.
6. Mr. Heater Portable Buddy Heater
Fall is a great time to go glamping, but sleeping on the ground can be a little chilly. While you can’t make a fire inside your teepee, you can warm it up using a portable heater. This one runs on liquid propane and can provide up to six hours of heat.
7. Battery Operated Shower System
Bathing in the creek is for campers, not glampers. Enjoy a hot shower, even in the middle of the woods, with this battery-operated propane shower system. Electric ignition produces instant hot water. All you have to do is hook it up to a hose and suds up.
8. GigaTent Portable Pop Up Pod
Of course, you don’t want to take a shower in front of the whole glamping squad, nor do you want to wander too far from camp. This is where the GigaTent pop-up pod comes in handy. The portable changing room is super easy to set up and offers plenty of privacy so you can shower without worrying about peeping Toms.
9. Intex Canopy Island
Yes, this canopy island is technically a pool floatie, but it’s just as comfortable on land. Plus, that’s big enough for two to three people and includes two cup holders and a detachable sunshade. Purchase a few and use them as lounges or as seating for an outdoor movie night.
10. Coleman LED String Lights
Set the mood with a few sets of string lights. These LEDs can provide a warm glow for up to 20 hours and run on AA batteries so you don’t have to worry about plugging them in. Hang them up in and around your tents to keep the party going all night long.
11. Camp Chef Sequoia Fire Pit
Did you even go glamping if you didn’t make a fire? Create a relaxing atmosphere — and a place to roast marshmallows — with this gas-powered fire pit set. All you need is a small propane tank to keep the flame burning, which means you can still use it where traditional fires have been banned due to fire danger.
12. Pre-Party Shot Glass and Flask Set
Glampers who enjoy a little tipple could certainly use a flask but, if they plan to share, a few shot glasses might come in handy. Luckily, this set comes with four, plus a carrying case for maximum portability. Throw a few back while enjoying killer views and good company.
Get the Ultimate Glamping Gear
Going glamping? Create the ultimate outdoor getaway with the latest glamping gear, decorations and equipment. Sure, splurging on the newest gear might make for a longer packing list. But it’ll also help you make new memories, which is the best part about glamping, anyway.
