Camping isn’t for everyone. Between having no showers, outdoor (or zero) toilets, a lack of temperature control or shelter from the elements, camping isn’t the most coxy way to vacation. It’s no wonder that traditional camping numbers have dropped and glamping has increased tenfold in recent years, according to Grandview Research. There are many reasons travelers are looking into glamping now more than ever. GlobeNewswire laid out some of them, including the fact that many consumers want to experience a one-of-a-kind destination, the emergence of small, portable appliances has made glamping easier and music festivals have become increasingly popular, raising the demand for elevated semi-outdoor accommodations.

The COVID-19 pandemic further drew sojourners to the world of glamping. When people didn’t feel safe staying in crowded hotels but still wanted the modern comforts afforded by them, a good glamp site seemed like the next best thing. Set in gorgeous locations and offering peaceful isolation, it turns out glamp sites aren’t the next best thing to hotels – they might be better! So if you’re looking to try one out this summer, here are several terrific Black-owned glamp sites and elevated RV sites worth checking out.
