In the state of New York, USA, the Adirondack Mountains calls. From the Indian Mohawk language, the name can be translated as “eater of trees”. This natural spectacle stands at an elevation of 5,344 ft (1,598.3 m). Endless trees and the challenge presented by Mount Marcy, the highest peak in New York, the Adirondack High Peaks region is a destination for everyone who enjoys the great outdoors. There are a range of accommodation options here - from cozy cabins to the top family resorts in the Adirondack Mountains. But why not consider glamping instead? Glamping combines camping and the luxury of resort-style facilities. This is one of the best ways to stay within the area of the Adirondack Mountains. On a hill, surrounded by trees, on a farm, or on an open field surrounded by green grass, check out the best spots for glamping in the Adirondacks.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, prices, availability of dates, decor, and a location that facilitates glamping or is close to glamping spots.
