Glamping with kids and the whole family
Do you and your family love nature but also want the comfort of beds, bathrooms, and climate control? If so, you’re probably a family glamping crew rather than a traditional camping family. Family-friendly glamping is the perfect way to enjoy the outdoors with kids while still keeping everyone comfortable. Our glamping tents make it easier than ever to step outside, relax, and connect—no gear required.
The beautiful Colorado mountains offer breathtaking views and unforgettable family adventures. Our luxury tents make it easy to enjoy family glamping with in-floor heating, evaporative cooling, queen pillow top mattresses, and private fire pits. It’s the ultimate way to experience the outdoors in a safe and family-friendly glamping environment.
Our family glamping tents even have Wifi and outlets, so feel free to bring your laptop and watch a movie before hitting the hay.

We've got fresh, fluffy towels to keep you dry after a day of rafting or a good squirt gun battle.
Family Glamping FAQs
What furnishings can I expect in Double Queen Glamping Tents?
Our Double Queen Glamping Tents feature two ultra comfy queen beds with pillows, linens, and warm comforters. Each tent also includes night stands, a desk and chair, and two additional lounging chairs.
On the private patio is a table with chairs, as well as a camp fire ring with furniture grade stumps for seating.
Is the tent climate controlled?
Yes, to a point. Glamping is still camping! Each tent includes an evaporative cooler for summer cooling. During early and late season the in-floor radiant heat is functional to take the chill off inside the tent. These modes of climate control do not allow for precise temperature control similar to hotel rooms, so look at the weather forecast and plan for warm days and cool evenings.
What other amenities are available?
Our glamping tents offer included WiFi, multiple electrical outlets and lighting, a drip coffee maker with complimentary coffee roasted locally, towels for use in the shower house, and 24 hour access to the shared shower house with bathrooms and flush toilets. Tents do not include an in-room bathroom or running water. Also, there is no television – it’s still camping – so feel free to bring your devices to stream a movie.
How far away is the shower house and bathrooms?
The furthest tent is no more than 400 feet from the shared shower house and bathrooms. You’ll have 24 hour access to these amenities by using a keycard made available at check-in. Showers are available and included for all glamping guests.
How does the complimentary fire kit work?
Each night you stay with us we deliver a camp fire kit which includes firewood, kindling and a fire starter kit to make it easy for our glampers to build and enjoy a fire. The wood we provide will usually allow for a campfire lasting a couple of hours. Additional wood can be purchased on-site when our lodging office is open. You are welcome to bring your own wood, too, if you prefer.
If there's a fire ban can we still have a fire?
Unfortunately, no. Occasionally we do see times when we are under mandatory fire restrictions by the county. We will notify you on the day of your arrival if fire restrictions exist. For certain fire restrictions, we are still allowed to fire up our group gas fire pit that all glamping guests are able to enjoy. In the event of extreme fire danger absolutely no open flames are allowed; this could include the gas fire pit.
