The Dyrt has officially unveiled the winners of the 2026 Glampy Awards, marking the fifth year of celebrating the most innovative and luxurious outdoor accommodations in the United States. Presented by Ramble, these awards highlight the evolution of glamping from a niche trend into a premier travel category. This year is particularly special as it celebrates a milestone anniversary by allowing past winners to compete for the top spots once again.

Taking the number one position for an unprecedented second year in a row is Zion Glamping Adventures in Utah. This destination continues to captivate travelers with its high-end bell tents nestled within a stunning red rock basin. The 2026 list showcases a perfect blend of seasoned favorites and fresh newcomers, proving that the glamping industry is constantly pushing the boundaries of creativity. From mirrored space pods in the Texas desert to a drive-in movie theater located at a canyon-side retreat in Utah, the diversity of this year’s honorees is truly impressive.

The selection process relies on nominations from the massive community at The Dyrt, with winners chosen based on originality, immersion in nature, and overall “glampiness.” This year’s list features everything from converted school buses in Michigan to secluded hilltop sites in the New York Catskills. Kevin Long, CEO of The Dyrt, notes that the common goal across all these unique stays is providing an unforgettable experience in the great outdoors. Whether you are looking for a rugged hike-in cabin or a geodesic dome with a gourmet outdoor kitchen, these award winners represent the pinnacle of modern camping luxury and adventurous spirit across the country.
