What's better than living in the greatest city in the world? Escaping it for a weekend away. Life in New York City is certainly rewarding but it can also be exhausting, and there's no greater way to rest and recharge than in nature. And (supposedly), there are more attractions in New York State beyond the five boroughs. Particularly of the outdoor kind.
Whether you're a city-dweller, call upstate your permanent home, or are here to visit, New York State has something for every kind of outdoorist. From the six million-acre Adirondack Park to the 700,000-acre Catskills Park preserve, to the artsy Hudson Valley, to the countless public parks in NYC, there are plenty of opportunities to get outside throughout New York—and all are as unique as the city itself.
If booking a cabin or tiny house is more your thing, check out our top picks for Hudson Valley rentals and Catskill cabins. But for a more unique experience—that's not all the way roughing it—glamping in New York is your best bet. Whatever you're looking for, including a whole lot more conventional glamping setups, New York's got you.
To make life easier, we rounded up 19 of the best glamping rentals so you can find your perfect match.
