Go Glamping At These 3 Campgrounds In Kentucky With Yurts For An Unforgettable Adventure

There's camping, and then there's camping in Kentucky. Big difference! The wondrous wilds of the Bluegrass are best enjoyed in a wholly immersive manner, and camping is perhaps our favorite way to recreate in Kentucky. However, there are times when a primitive tent site isn't all that appealing, when we'd like to trade our sleeping bags and natural elements for cozy beds and a weather-proof roof above our heads. In these times, you'll be delighted to discover the following amazing campgrounds with yurts where you can have the ultimate glamping adventure in Kentucky. Talk about a win-win.

Red River Gorge Cabin Rentals - Campton

Red River Gorge is a bucket-list destination for many; a place best enjoyed over the course of a weekend or several days... or longer! For your RRG adventures, you'll need a home base.

Within this wondrous expanse, Red River Gorge Cabin Rentals offers all sorts of accommodations, from luxurious cabins to well-appointed yurts.

Their Grand Yurt is a stunning luxury cabin that will take your breath away with its quality craftsmanship and design. It sleeps up to 10 and offers all the amenities of a 5-star hotel... but with the views and surrounding scenery of RRG!

A full-sized kitchen, well-appointed bathroom, outdoor hot tub, WiFi, and high-end appliances take this yurt glamping experience in Kentucky to another level. This truly is "camping" for self-described "indoorsey" folks.

AJ Jolly Park Yurts - Alexandria

In Campbell County, A.J. Jolly Park has three modern and comfortable yurts available to reserve for the night. Yurt #3, the most recent addition, features a wrap-around porch and creature comforts like a fire ring, coffee maker, and mini fridge.

This is definitely more rustic yurt camping, but a big step above primitive tent camping that's perfect for newbies!

HomeGrown HideAways - Berea

In beautiful Berea, HomeGrown HideAways is hailed as one of the top glampgrounds in Kentucky. Nestled in a 100-acre holler in the Appalachian foothills, HomeGrown HideAways features treehouses, yurts, vintage campers, a tipi, and campsites.

For those who have ever dreamed of staying in the treetops of the Bluegrass forests, Abi's Arboreal Abode is a treehouse-meets-yurt that's a dream come true!

Have you spent the night at any of these campgrounds before? If so, did you know they offered yurts for rental, too? These aren't just amazing glampgrounds; they're some of the best campgrounds in Kentucky, and the yurts are the icing on the cake!
