1.A cozy caravan in Terlingua, Texas that boasts pretty incredible views and is walking distance from the Historic Ghost Town and Starlight Theater. Planning my road trip as I type...

Promising review: "The caravan location is perfect if you are seeking for a quiet and peaceful getaway. It’s fully furnished for cooking, sleeping and any kind of weather. Everything is very clean, including the bathhouse. The bed outside in the porch adds a romantic flair to your stay if you like stargazing." —Shea

Price: $160/night

Airbnb

2.A spacious surfer van parked right by the water in San Diego so you can live out your California beach dreams. There's even a surfboard valet service to bring boards and wetsuits right to your door if you're looking to catch some gnarly waves. ??

Note: there's no running water or bathroom available in the van, so this stay is best for those looking to experience ALL that van life has to offer... including the less luxe parts.

Promising review: "The van is a gem! We watched the sunset and played at the beach the next day. I would highly recommend to anyone who loves to explore and adventure nature in the most authentic way!" —Kristen

Price: $155/night

Airbnb

3.Or go for a slightly more luxurious van life experience in Makawao, Hawaii. This van has a toilet, outdoor shower system, fridge, and all the beach essentials you could want for your movie montageworthy adventure.

Note: drivers must be at least 25 years of age, have a valid driver's license, and have an active full coverage auto insurance policy.

Promising review: "The van was everything we hoped for. From Hana to Kapalua, it lived up to all expectations. Tired after lunch? Pull up to the beach, open the doors and listen to the waves. My husband is tall and fits just fine in the comfy bed. Lindsay was the nicest, most accommodating person in the world. She was happy to help us with finding campgrounds or what was the best place to hike it where to find the cheapest gas. We would definitely do it again." —Phyllis

Price: $300/night

Airbnb

4.A covered wagon nestled in Colorado City, Arizona (not confusing at all) so you can embrace your inner Laura Ingalls Wilder. Plus, you'll be central to Zion National Park, Cottonwood Canyon, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, and more popular Arizona attractions.

Promising review: "Must see — how many people can say they spent a night in a covered wagon? Such a unique stay and prime location on the border of Arizona and Utah. When you open the door to your wagon the mountains greet you and the small window at the back of the wagon gave us a beautiful view of the moon." —Ariel

Price: $105/night

Airbnb

5.A gorgeous carriage in Topanga, California in case you want to feel like the ~main character~ in a whimsical romance novel. There's even an old copper tub for you to take a candlelit bath in... *swoon*.

6.An Airstream surrounded by trees that's smack dab in the middle of Brooklyn (yes, it's true). Bonus: it even has a hot tub so you can soak under the stars — and the city lights, ofc.

Promising review: "Fabulous glamping! I love the Columbia Waterfront District and Red Hook and it was cool to be in the heart of it...with a hot tub! This is a very cool setup in a cool neighborhood. The airstream is well-appointed and comfortable. And the garden is a great place to relax and soak. The hot tub is amazing! There are lots of restaurants and bars nearby plus the ferry to Governor's Island. " —Erin

Price: $303/night

Airbnb

7.An adorably restored vintage trailer right in the Santa Monica mountains I'm pretty sure is the definition of ~getting away from it all~ without having to say goodbye to things like running water or Wi-Fi.

Promising review: "Great spot! We stayed here for a couple of days while visiting LA and everything was beautiful and comfortable. I especially loved the little deck with a gorgeous view of the mountains. The composting toilet was easy to use and I enjoyed the outdoor shower." —Sophie

Price: $123/night

Airbnb

8.A vintage trailer at No.9 Farms in Ashland City, Tennessee that's frankly the only ten I see. Resting on over 40 acres under a pavilion that features a gorgeous outdoor bathhouse, kitchen, outdoor covered deck, and a personal fire pit, this stay is truly glamping to the max.

the blue and silver bullet trailer

Note: though there IS Wi-Fi, owners report some not-so-stellar phone service, and the trailer doesn't have a TV. But honestly, who needs one anyway when you're staying on SO much gorgeous land?

Promising review: "This listing is a RARE BEAUTY. You'll stay on a modest farm with impressive land, wooded away from the hosts and the main road for perfect privacy, all a short drive from Nashville. The vintage airstream was something to write home about, and delightfully decorated." —Bethany

Airbnb

Promising review: "Had a short staycation with my dog here. The location is amazingly beautiful and serene. Originally I had planned to go hiking and spend some time at the beach but we ended up cancelling our entire itinerary and spent most of our time sitting on the deck enjoying the view, sun, and getting some reading done." —Nicki

Price: $346/night

Airbnb

13.An Airstream by the sea in Gold Beach, Oregon if you're more of a west coast glamper. This trailer rests on a picturesque bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Nesika Beach and comes complete with a hot tub and fire pit for an even dreamier stay.

16.A 20-foot container cabin with great views and access to the river at Casita Blu in Ingram, Texas that will make your followers green with envy. While a little more stationary than some of the other options here, don't count Little Verde out just yet — this cute cabin comes complete with canoes so you can venture out on the water when the heat gets too stuffy!

the little green cabin

Promising review: "Perfect for a weekend getaway. Everything you need and more. Especially loved the swing to relax in the morning and my son thought the outdoor shower was super cool (there's also one indoor). We thought it might get hot due to the Texas heat but the AC worked incredibly well. You can't beat the view and access to the river and you're only a 15-20 min drive to Kerrville if you're looking for some neat restaurants." —Paige

Price: $99/night

Airbnb

17.A 2016 Flying Cloud Airstream in Joshua Tree, California with a two-person, charcoal-fired hot tub so you can enjoy some stargazing away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

There's also a projector provided on request for outdoor movie nights and a stock tank pool for the warmer months!

Promising review: "Great clean place with all the amenities to make your desert stay perfect. Really enjoyed watching the Super Bowl on the projector while grilling under the stars.

18.Or a 1974 Airstream trailer surrounded by avocado trees on an organic ranch just a short drive from Ojai, California, and five minutes from the beautiful beach town of Carpinteria. This is the California everyone must've been dreamin' about...

the patio area outside the airstream trailer

Promising review: "Beyond charming! If you love Airstreams you will be over the moon! This place has it all and then some! A beautifully updated 1974 Airstream, an oversized deck, gorgeous gardens, a fire pit, a bird watching area! Tranquil private setting among oaks and avocado trees. Stars galore and so so quiet! All this 10 mins to the beach and charming downtown Carp! We watched the sunset then ate and drank delicious seafood and craft cocktails at Little Doms seafood. Can’t wait to go back!" —Marc

Price: $225/night

Airbnb

19.A cute little backyard Airstream smack dab in the center of Miami, Florida perfect if you feel torn between a rural getaway and an urban adventure. This cute camper gives you the ability to enjoy a glamping experience while still being close to those cocktail bars.

the airstream

Promising review: "Sergio's airstream is exactly what you need if you're taking a quick trip to Miami and don't mind minimal living. It's a quick ride to/from the airport and the Miami Marlins play right down the street. A walk to little Havana is about 20 minutes and if the weather is right, the walk is delightful." —Matthew

Price: $64/night

Airbnb

20.A 2015 Keystone Hideout in Bend, Oregon that can turn even the unhappiest camper's frown upside down. The RV sleeps four and has a fully functioning kitchen, Wi-Fi, AC, and even a TV. If you dream of taking a family camping trip in the Oregon woods but don't want to deal with all the setup/gear that it requires, this camper is calling your name.

Pst. You can even hang out with the host's horse Dusty and if that's not enough to have you booking your getaway ASAP, I don't know what else I can say.

Promising review: "What a great little spot!! If only I could’ve captured the looks on my kiddos’ faces when we first arrived—they were BEYOND ecstatic (and ultimately loved every minute of their surprise stay here)! It was all equally enjoyable for me, too—so many wonderful little touches that just made for an overall happy energy in this place!" —Taylor

Price: $125/night

Airbnb

21.And an adorable camper on Enchanted Oaks Farm in Ocala, Florida perfect for curling up in after a long day of road tripping. With AC, a mini-fridge, a full-size bed, and plenty of farm animals to boot, what more could you need?

the little blue and white camper

Promising review: "The Enchanted Oak Farm is a magical place! It was perfect for my daughter and I on our short getaway. A great escape from home and a quiet place to unwind and let go of the stresses of the outside world. This serene farm managed to make us feel at home but with a fun camping twist. It was the perfect balance of 'glamping' and embracing nature. Adding to the fun, the animals were a great addition to our experience. The property was picturesque and just as beautiful as we were hoping for! The bathrooms, tiny cabin, and camper were clean and comfortable! The outdoor games were a fun surprise as well the cute swing by the pond! We hope to come again soon!" —Kristen
