Not everyone needs or wants the luxury of a hotel but not everyone wants to rough it out in the woods in a tent. Over the years, glamping has become the ultimate compromise between the two. Now the options for glamping are practically endless between yurts, treehouses, safari tents, domes, barns, huts, campers, and more. Here are a few vintage and vintage-style camper options if you are interested in glamping in Illinois and want to stay somewhere out-of-the-ordinary.
1. Airstream Glamping, with Pool, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, and Lake, Farmer City
This renovated 1972 Airstream has views of Clinton Lake and is surrounded by nature. Go for a hike along the trails or go fishing and kayaking out on the lake. This is what camping is all about right?
The camper is roomy enough for two guests and has two twin beds and a futon couch. There is a compost toilet but no shower. You'll want to spend most of your time outdoors anyway, exploring the beautiful property. There is a fire pit, hot tub, and pool for your use as well.

2. Vintage 23' Airstream Camper, Wood Dale
This restored 23-foot vintage Airstream camper is close to the airport in a quiet residential neighborhood. You can enjoy a comfortable stay with basic amenities. This is not fancy but has everything you need.

3. Airstream Dreams at Petit Lake Resort
This vintage-style Airstream is located at Petit Lake Resort's RV park and is just a short walk to the beach. Bring your boat or rent a boat, and spend time out on the lake.
This camper can accommodate up to four guests and has one bedroom and a bathroom. There is also a community bathroom with showers at the beach. The kitchen is equipped with a stovetop and pots and pans if you want to cook during your stay, or cook outside on the grill. You'll enjoy the fantastic location at the lake.

This renovated vintage beauty is set on an 11-acre property and has everything you need for your glamping stay. Take the available kayaks out on the private lake, where you can also fish.

5. Rustic Retreat, Crystal Lake
This glamper is also in Crystal Lake and has the same owners and same amenities as the Waterfall Retreat. This is another beautifully renovated and decorated vintage camper with a truly rustic feel. Hike along the nature trails that run through the property; borrow a bike or a kayak, or take a dip in the indoor pool or hot tub. There are endless amenities here.
This glamper can also accommodate up to four guests, has three beds, a bathroom, and a kitchen and dining area. Decorated with reclaimed barn wood and other rustic touches, it feels more cabin-like than RV-like.
