By Ashley | Published June 04, 2018

Have you ever dreamed of showing up to a campground and having a fancy tent already pitched for you with all the modern amenities? If so, your dreams can become a reality at Elephant Rock Nature Park in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. They offer a glampground (camping + glamour) with several yurts ready for your next weekend getaway.

Glamping: "Going camping, but with glamour; no tent to pitch, no sleeping bag to unroll, no fire to build for food."

If this is your style of camping, then you have to visit the glampground at Elephant Rock Nature Park along the Illinois River at 22049 E. Elephant Rock Rd. in Tahlequah.

Yurts are round, tent-like structures that are a mix between cabins and tents. They come fully equipped with all the modern amenities and sleep up to six adults. They even come with heating, air-conditioning, and bathrooms!

Elephant Rock sits on 210 acres in the Ozark woodlands and offers beautiful scenery with an array of outdoor activities.

They even offer guided hikes and float trips down the Illinois River. Rent a raft that can seat up to six and enjoy a day of leisure out on the water.

Each yurt comes with a beautiful outdoor living space with picnic tables, hammocks, grills, and fire rings. There's also plenty of space so you won't feel as cramped as a traditional campground.

Escape the city life at this peaceful setting in eastern Oklahoma. They are open year-round but reservations are required (see the link below).

Pricing is as follows:

24-foot yurt (sleeps six): $130 per night for up to four guests
30-foot yurt (sleeps 10): $150 per night for up to six guests
