30 Glamping Accessories That Will Transform Your Camping Experience
Post Summary: Must have glamping accessories that will make your next camping adventure a little more luxe and a whole lot easier.
Luxury camping, or glamping, as it’s more commonly called, is the perfect solution for anyone who loves the idea of sleeping out under the stars but isn’t so keen on the “roughing it” part of camping.
We have backpacked, car camped, lived in a remodeled camper, made a DIY glamping tent in the backyard, and I have to say…glamping has a special place in our hearts. It combines everything we love: the outdoors, camping, and beautiful design.
While going on a glamping getaway where everything is built and ready for you definitely has its perks, it can also cost as much as a luxury hotel. If you’re wanting to create your own glamping experience by adding some cool glamping gear for your next camping trip, we’ve got you covered.
Here’s our list of 25 glamping accessories that will elevate your tent from camping to glamping.
Some of them are glamping essentials that we would consider glamping must haves. Others might be considered a bit much, but hey, it’s glamping! Glamping by its very nature is a little bit “extra.”

30 CHIC GLAMPING ACCESSORIES
HEST SLEEP SYSTEM CAMPING PAD
The first thing you’ll want to invest in when looking for essential glamping gear is a cozy mattress pad. The upgrade from an uncomfortable air mattress or sleeping bag to a foam camping pad will convert you for life. There’s just no comparing the quality of comfort and sleep you’ll get on a camping pad vs. an air mattress.
If you’re looking for luxury camping equipment, you’ll want to buy the HEST Sleep System Sleeping Pad. Its thick 2-layer foam system rivals an at-home mattress. With thick insulation and contouring foam, the HEST Sleeping Pad is the top choice for a great night’s sleep under the stars. It’s big and not intended for backcountry camping. It is a true piece of glamping equipment!
PENDLETON THROW BLANKET
A Pendleton Blanket that sits atop your cozy camping pads is the ultimate in fancy camping gear. We use a Pendleton Sherpa blanket for our glamping setup, but we also love the Chief Joseph Blanket for its high-quality wool and beautiful design.

Best Glamping Tent
Looking for a glamping tent to go with all these amazing glamping accessories? We love the Avalon Bell Tent from White Duck Outdoors. A full review post coming soon!
GLAMPING CHAIRS
A cozy glamping chair to lounge and watch the sunset or roast some marshmallows is luxury camping gear that is worth every penny. Believe me, as someone who has used $10 camping chairs, the difference is noticeable. The Nemo Stargaze Recliner Luxury Chair is a cross between a camping chair and a recliner…that rocks. Using your body weight, you can opt to recline back and rest on the padded headrest, or you can sit upright and use it as a conventional camping chair. It’s particularly useful glamping gear if you’ll be doing any stargazing.
HAMMOCK
A hammock to pass away hours of your day is an essential item on any glamping list. We use the Wise Owl Camping Hammock and love that they are easy to set up, can safely be hung from a tree, and that you can buy a double-wide so you can laze with your family or loved one. It packs up small and comes in a variety of bright colors. Perfect for anyone who will be glamping at a campsite. If you’ll be setting up backyard glamping, you could opt for a hammock chair that hangs from a tree or a porch.

SOLAR CAFE LIGHTS
Setting up solar-powered cafe lights in your campsite instantly transforms your camp into a dreamy haven. We string up our Perfect Day Solar Cafe Lights to the outside of our tent and love the way it looks when night comes, and they turn on. The best part about them is they are solar, so you won’t need any electricity. They provide just enough light that you can feel comfortable sitting outside without needing camping lanterns.

CAMPING LANTERNS
Beautiful camping lanterns that sit on both sides of your bed are the ultimate design tool for a Pinterest-worthy glamping setup. Ambient lighting is also one of the most cost-effective ways to create a heavenly space. I love the sleek copper look of the Lepro LED Camping Lantern. A bonus is that it can also charge your devices. Anything that has multi-functionality is a big win.
SIDE TABLES
Side tables to flank both sides of your camping pads are essential glamping tent accessories. Not only are they functional, but they also help to create a bedroom aesthetic that takes you from camp to glamp. We love our iClimb Ultralight Camping Tables because they come in a natural wood color, are lightweight, and pack up into a small bag. Perfect for glamping at a campsite.

FAIRY LIGHTS
One of the easiest things to take glamping that won’t take up a lot of space when you’re packing is battery-operated fairy lights. They’re small and can be artfully hung around your tent for an ethereal, magical nighttime experience. Hang them up around the tent or over your bed for a simple decoration that brings a lot of atmosphere. I prefer lights like these Star Fairy Lights that have a remote control so you can lie down in your bed and choose when you want to turn them off. It’s glamping, right?

ALLSOP PAPER LANTERN
Another lighting option that has a more elegant feel is a solar-powered paper lantern. Hang it from a tree or in your tent to create a whimsical space. I love the handmade paper lanterns from Allsop because they come in a variety of rich colors and have beautiful ornate patterns.

SHEEPSKIN RUGS
Glamping accessories that add texture and cozy vibes are rugs strewn around your tent. We like using our faux sheepskin rugs since they’re lightweight and roll up easily. We like that you can throw them over a camping chair and instantly make an aluminum chair seem more glamorous. You can also buy authentic sheepskin rugs if you want the soft luxury of sheepskin.

RADIATE PORTABLE CAMPFIRE
Depending on where you’re camping, you might not have access to a fire pit. The next best thing? A campfire in a can. The Radiate Portable Campfire is lit up with one match and can burn for 3-5 hours. When you’re done, smother the fire with the lid for a no-fuss campfire. Using recycled soy wax and recycled paper briquettes, the fire is free of embers and toxic smoke. The best part? You can roast marshmallows as long as you buy the original, unscented radiate campfire.

BIO LITE FIRE PIT
Love the idea of a portable campfire, but want something more permanent than the Radiate Campfire? The BioLite FirePit is a smoke-free, wood-burning fire pit that can also be used as a hibachi-style grill. If you want to up the amazingness of the fire pit, you can buy the USB and solar charger carrier, allowing you to use it anytime, anywhere.

MARSHMALLOW ROASTING STICKS
You can’t go glamping and not make artisan S’mores. Get yourself some classic Lindt chocolate or go unique with unique flavors from HU or Ferrero Rocher Milk Chocolate Hazlenut and pair them with a pack of gourmet marshmallows from Hammond.
Prep your S’mores with extendable marshmallow roasting sticks from Jolly Green. I love these telescoping skewers because they extend up to 34 inches making the whole S’more making experience easier and safer. Also, you can use them for hot dogs!

TORCH
Can you start a fire with a match? Yes. Will you save yourself ten minutes with this torch? Also, yes. A torch is the best glamping gadget for those who are tired of endlessly trying to get the fire going. Once we bought the Bernzomatic torch, we wondered why the heck we had waited so long. Now we can have s’mores ten minutes sooner!
CHECK PRICE: Amazon
YETI COOLER
You’ll need a cooler to store your beverages and to keep your S’mores chocolate from melting. If you’re doing a few days of camping, you can’t beat the Yeti Roadie 24 Cooler. Slim and lightweight with excellent insulation, this cooler is a utilitarian and chic piece of glamping equipment. Plus, you can fit a bottle of wine standing up.
If you’ll need to store more food, opt for the Yeti Tundra Haul Portable Wheeled Cooler. With a handle and a wheel, you won’t strain your back trying to lift a heavy cooler to your campsite.
DOMETIC PORTABLE FRIDGE
If you’re looking to seriously upgrade your glamping items, then you’ll want to ditch the cooler (and all that sloshy ice) and get yourself a portable fridge. Dometic offers the best portable refrigerators and is a no-brainer when looking for which fridge to purchase. It can be battery or solar-powered, and the best part…it makes ice! They are well built, and unlike other portable fridges that lose their efficiency at around 80 degrees, the Dometic fridge can withstand hot summer days.
PORTABLE POWER STATION
The king of all glamping gadgets is having your own portable power station. While camping is a time to “unplug” you also might want to “plug in” a compressor fridge, a coffee pot, a pump, or simply recharge your devices. The Jackery Power Station will keep you sufficiently plugged in so you can enjoy the outdoors with a few luxurious electronics by your side.

MYSTICAL FIRE
Top on our list of must-have glamping accessories for kids is a box of Mystical Fire Packets. Although we enjoy it as much as our child does, so perhaps it should be on everyone’s must-have list! Throw a packet (or two or three) into your campfire and watch as a kaleidoscope of colors bursts through the flames. It’s easy entertainment and typically lasts for 30-45 minutes.

MODERN PICNIC BASKET
A cute picnic basket with a prepared spread of charcuterie and wine is the quintessential glamping experience. The only problem is picnic baskets are not practical. They’re big, bulky, and don’t pack up well. The solution…the modern-day picnic basket that packs onto your back. The cute picnic baskets from Sunflora come in a variety of different patterns and come with a holder for a bottle of wine, a picnic blanket, dishes, utensils, wine glasses, a cutting board, a wine opener, and a large insulated food compartment. It’s practical and cute! Perfect if you’ll be doing a casual hike while you’re glamping and want to set up a picnic mid-hike.

ALL PURPOSE BANKET
When looking for boho camping accessories, you’ll want to include a pretty blanket that can be used on the ground or thrown over the picnic table provided at most campsites. It instantly makes your campsite feel homier. Also, picnic benches can be dirty, so it’s an easy way to stay clean. The outdoor blanket from Good Gain is extra-large, has a waterproof backing, and can be cleaned in the washing machine.

CAMPING OVEN
While glamping under the stars can conjure up dreamy images of cooking food over an open flame, the realities of campfire cooking can sometimes be too much for someone who just wants to relax on their glamping trip. Enter the Camp Chef Portable Outdoor Oven. When I saw the neighboring campsite make pizza in this for his family, I knew I was glamping all wrong. The options are limitless with this portable propane-powered oven.

CAST IRON COOKWARE
The iconic American brand, Lodge, has been selling cast iron products for over 100 years. Owning a Lodge Cast Iron Dutch Oven is a classic piece of camping equipment. Perfect for someone who wants to glamp but still wants to feel like they’re camping.

CAMPING MUGS
Charming camping mugs to sip your morning tea or coffee are glamping essentials 101. We love an insulated mug from Yeti because it keeps the coffee hot for hours, but we’re also partial to classic enamel mugs with cute designs.
STEMLESS WINE GLASSES
Luxury camping items have to include wine glasses that are not made of plastic. But how do you transport all that delicate glass? With silicone-sleeved stemless wine glasses. If you’re like me and don’t enjoy drinking wine from a plastic cup, you’ll want to buy these cute glasses that allow you to enjoy the aesthetic and sensually pleasing nature of a wine glass.

SPEAKER
A high-quality, durable, waterproof speaker for listening to great tunes while you relax is camping luxury at its best. We like to use our Ultimate Ears Portable Speaker because it’s wireless, can pair up with Alexa, and its round shape allows for sound to carry in all directions.

CHARMAST POWER BANK
This power bank makes glamping life easier by cutting down on clutter. With built-in cables, you can leave the extra cords at home while still charging multiple devices through its multi-port outlets. The clear LED display shows exactly how much power remains, and its massive 26,800 mAh capacity keeps phones, cameras, and tablets powered for days—no outlet required.

LUXURY TENT SLIPPERS
A pair of comfortable slippers to wear in the tent are always a part of our glam camping accessories. The first time I ever tried UGG’s slippers, I became a fan for life. They’re luxurious, cozy, and will keep your feet warm.

THERMOBALL CAMP SHOES
Since lounging around is a part of the glamping lifestyle, I like to have shoes that are for hanging out around camp. Insulated with ThermoBall™ Eco synthetic fill, they stay warm even in damp conditions, and their ripstop upper with DWR helps shed light moisture.
What really sets them apart in camp life is their collapsible heel — you can slip in and out quickly when you need to run to the firepit or bathroom — and a rubber sole built for grip on wet or uneven ground.

SOUND MACHINE
Glamping accessories that ensure a good night’s rest are key to a great glamping experience. A rechargeable, battery-operated sound machine will drown out all the noises that campsites and backyard glamping can have. We used ours to muffle the trains that were passing by us every hour at night. Worked like a charm. We never glamp without our sound machine.
CHECK PRICE: Amazon
EYE MASK
You’ll want to add an eye mask to your glamping accessories if you’re light-sensitive. The early morning light that filters through the tent can often mean a much earlier wake-up time than you had hoped for. We like these eye masks because they don’t squeeze the skin, are light-reducing, and can be used by back sleepers and side sleepers.
