Heading out on mega-adventures is hard work. So today we’re focusing on staycations and backyard glamping. Once you have the gear, you can set up your backyard glamping retreat whenever the mood strikes, creating a perfect staycation for your family of outdoor lovers. Don’t have a backyard? Don’t sweat it – instead, set up your glamping retreat at your nearest state park. Here are our favorite backyard glamping products for your next campout.
Fun Backyard Glamping Products for Your Staycation
Ready to make your next staycation the best adventure ever? Check out these fabulous backyard glamping products to turn your backyard into a camping retreat.
CORE 9 Person Instant Cabin Tent
You don’t have to worry about how heavy your tent is when backyard glamping. Instead, you are looking for room to spread out, and ways to make your outdoor home feel as cozy as your indoor home.
The CORE Instant Cabin Tent sets up in 60 seconds, features a room divider, and even an electrical cord access port. While it sleeps nine adults quite snuggly, it’s perfect for a family staycation or a friend's sleepover party.
There are lots of backyard glamping tents available on Amazon, but this one was the most affordable and highly rated that we found.
Milliard Tri Folding Mattress with Washable Cover
We’ve totally given up on air mattresses for camping and glamping. Why? We have dogs. We have kids. Air mattresses just don’t last.
This tri-folding foam mattress is a perfect (and more comfortable) substitute for backyard glamping. It will last so much longer than an air mattress, and it’s comparatively affordable.
This is the queen size, but they make these in twin and full sizes as well. The mattress comes with a washable bamboo cover and got great reviews on Amazon.
BioLite Smokeless FirePit
This is a portable wood-burning fire pit – perfect for small yards, camping, or backyard glamping adventures. Four fan speeds control the intensity of the flame, and it comes with a rechargeable battery pack for charging your devices.
The Biolite FirePit is totally portable and great for s’mores roasting, keeping warm, or providing perfect campfire vibes.
Mason Jar Solar Lantern Lights (8 Pack)
Please note that these solar lanterns do not actually include the mason jars, but they are perfect for turning your own canning jars into beautiful solar lights for your next backyard glamping adventure.
If you charge these in full sun for 6-8 hours, the lights will last for 12+ hours. They are perfect as a table decoration, for lining a path, or for hanging in the trees. Perfect for setting the mood or lighting the way to your back door.
TREKOLOGY Portable Camping Table
These folding, waterproof tables come in three different sizes, so you can use them inside your glamping tent as a nightstand, or use them outside for food prep and eating. All three sizes are less than three pounds, and they come with a carrying case so you can take them anywhere.
Yes, these tables are great for backyard glamping, but they are also great for camping road trips and boondocking.
Oversized Club Camp Chair
Suitable for campers up to 500 pounds, this chair by Guide Gear is marketed as the most comfortable camp chair on the planet. The back and sides are plush and padded, and it folds up easily when your backyard glamping trip is over. Better get more than one of these, or there’s sure to be arguments!

We recently encountered a minor glamping experience in Kodaikanal (India) and reading this article makes me realize that having some products would have been extremely helpful for us. Camping table and chair would have been convenient. Nevertheless, we'll grab them for next time. Thanks for sharing this list!
