7 Campgrounds In Indiana Perfect For Those Who Hate Camping
For those of us who love the idea of sleeping somewhere quiet and nature-y but aren’t exactly about that whole “setting up a tent, building a fire, etc” kind of life, there is hope – “glamping” is a great alternative to rough camping. And, luckily for us, there’s plenty of glamping in Indiana to go ’round. We’ve rounded up a small collection of campsites that are all the luxury of hotel rooms paired with the outdoorsy appeal of traditional camping.
You read that right; this canvas tent sits on the shore of a 15-acre lake near Jasonville, Indiana. You bring your own linens, so you can cozy up with your favorite blankets. The rental comes with two kayaks, so be ready for a great weekend getaway without worry.
Nestled in an oak forest on the Tippecanoe River in Monticello, Indiana, this glamp spot is a dream come true for nature lovers. The yurt is 20 feet in diameter, so it's roomy and comfortable. As a bonus, there's a cozy outdoor hot-water bath and shower, and an outdoor kitchen, as well.
Get a load of this! It's an absolutely adorable vintage camper chilling in the woods at the eXplore Brown County campground. It's 14 feet of comfy-cozy goodness in Indiana's most beautiful county.
You've probably heard of the tiny house phenomenon sweeping the world, but what about a tiny shed? It's totally possible, as this cozy stay proves. It's an 8' x 11' outdoor shed converted into a bedroom with the coziest bed you'll ever sleep in. You also get firewood and an outdoor fire pit with your booking, and there's nothing quite like a warm campfire under the stars, especially in Fort Wayne.
It's all the fun of camping, but with running water (in a nearby house). You bring your food and camping supplies (minus the tent), and they provide the space. It's super comfy and super affordable, too. Nashville, Indiana, never seemed so cozy.
Take your pick from any awesomely luxurious cabin getaway they've got available at the Antler. Our favorite cabin offers stunning views of Lake Solitude and a fully-equipped kitchen to boot. When it comes to glamping in Indiana, we don't think it gets much better than this.
This peaceful herb farm doubles as a retreat, with two fancy yurts to choose from for a glamping experience you won't forget any time soon. Possibly best of all, breakfast is included!
Seriously, who said you need to rough it to fall in love with camping? Glamping is the perfect mixture of traditional camping in a natural setting and a comfortable stay somewhere within civilization. Looking for more traditional camping spot ideas? Check out this article!

Legend has it that she can also be occasionally spotted typing up short bios in the third person, but those rumors are unsubstantiated.
