Best Glamping in Washington State

woman sitting in cabin while glamping in Washington state

I’ve become obsessed with glamping in Washington state ever since I tried it in Oregon. We stayed at the cutest vintage trailer resort and it got me hooked on finding cool places for that camping-not-camping vibe closer to home.

Since then I’ve stayed at tiny homes and treehouses in Washington, plus saved dozens more trailers, yurts, etc. So if you’re looking to go glamping in Washington state, check out these places for your next trip!

Best Glamping in Washington State

If you’re not familiar with the term “glamping”, it’s a play on merging “glamorous” and “camping” into one word. Essentially it means there are rustic elements as if you’re camping, but with creature comforts like a bed, cleanliness, electricity, and running water. Basically, my kind of camping!

Here are the best Washington glamping spots for when you want to dip your toe into camping without fully committing.

Tiny House Village

woman running through tiny home village, some of the best glamping in Washington state

I go to Leavenworth at least twice a year on family trips and to update my guide to the best Leavenworth restaurants. One of the best places I’ve found in this Bavarian-themed town about 2.5 hours east of Seattle is the Tiny House Village.

I first discovered them when cross-country skiing with my family. We were on a trail that passed these brightly-colored tiny homes and I announced, “I must stay in one of these.” Luckily I got my wish a few years later when we needed a place to stay after hunting for larches on the best Leavenworth hikes.

The Tiny House Village is part of the Thousand Trails RV Resort and has 5 homes to choose from:

  • Rudolf
  • Adeline
  • Otto
  • Hanna
  • Belle

I stayed in Rudolf, the aptly named red tiny house. This was one of my first forays into glamping in Washington state and is what ultimately got me hooked. It was super clean, had a normal-functioning bathroom, AC, a full kitchen, electricity, wifi, cable, and a comfy bed. Plus there were fire pits, grills, and Adirondack chairs outside perfect for taking in the beautiful scenery.

The Rolling Huts

The rolling huts in Winthrop, WA, glamping in Washington state

The Rolling Huts was another spot I passed while spending winter in Winthrop, which has the largest groom trailed system in North America and therefore the best cross-country skiing in Washington.

These midcentury modern cabins have huge windows overlooking the Methow Valley. They have a lot of creature comforts like a fridge, microwave, dishes/plates, and fireplace, but they’re also a bit more rustic since they don’t have bathrooms.

Instead you can use the normal bathrooms in the barn or use the portable toilet and faucet outside each hut. There are also only sleeping mats on platforms, so this is a good spot for glamping in WA if you want to try your hand at a bit more camping-like ambiance.

Treehouse Place

Treehouse Place is a truly the perfect glamping destination if you need a romantic getaway. The treehouses feel like they’re high in the sky, but they’re actually only a few feet off the ground built into the hill on posts. Each has a kitchen, memory foam mattress, HD TV, and fireplace. This one has a gorgeous soaking tub and two stories that offer incredible views of the forest

The Lodge at SkyCamp

The next time I plan to ski at Stevens Pass I’ll definitely be booking a stay at this charming lodge. It’s a tiny cabin home fit with a wood burning stove, two beds, and a clawfoot tub. There’s also a nature trail, communal fire pits, and hammocks perfect for lounging in the warm summer months.

If you’ve ever wanted to sleep in a private caboose, now is your chance. The Olympic Railway Inn offers 7 rooms, each with a garden view, a coffee maker, a flatscreen TV, and a spacious bathroom. The rooms are named based on their themes, like the Casino Royale that’s gold embellished and includes a blackjack table, or the Grape Escape that’s wine-centric with bottle art and barrel tables.

Cozy Hobbit House

The next time I plan a weekend on Bainbridge Island you better believe I’m booking this adorable hobbit house. It’s hand-built by the property owners and takes cozy to another level. This in-hill cabin is tiny yet it squeezes in a number of amenities like a convertible couch/bed, board games, and an electric fireplace. There’s also a private portable bathroom with a hand-washing station and a fire pit, and you’ll have a private area of the yard for yourself to relax. As if it couldn’t get any better, you’re only minutes away from the best wineries on Bainbridge Island.
