The Dyrt Reveals 2026 Glampy Award Winners

The Dyrt announced the winners of its 2026 Glampy Awards Presented by Ramble, recognizing 10 glamping destinations across the United States for originality, accommodations and outdoor guest experiences.

The annual awards program, now in its fifth year, selected top glamping properties based on nominations from The Dyrt’s camping community. 

According to the company, winners were evaluated on “overall glampiness, originality, innovation and immersion in nature.”

Zion Glamping Adventures earned the No. 1 ranking for the second consecutive year, marking the first back-to-back winner in the history of the Glampy Awards. The Utah property features luxury bell tents located in a red rock basin.

The 2026 awards also marked the first year repeat winners were permitted in the competition, opening eligibility to previous honorees from across the country. Six returning winners appeared on this year’s list alongside four new selections.

According to a press release, Kevin Long, CEO of The Dyrt, said the growth of glamping continues to expand the range of outdoor hospitality offerings available to travelers.

“Glamping is no longer a new phenomenon. It’s a continued, collective experiment to expand the possibilities for campers and glampers alike,” Long said. “Whether it’s outside-the-box accommodations like space pods and converted school buses, or just putting a drive-in movie theater at a campground, at the end of the day there’s one common goal — provide an unforgettable experience in the great outdoors.”

Other repeat winners included Space Cowboys, which previously ranked No. 1 in 2023; Loving Heart Retreats, the top-ranked property in 2024; and Ofland Escalante, which placed No. 2 in 2022.

Additional honorees in the 2026 rankings included Dancing Fire Glamping and RV Resort, The Cabins at Sandy Mush Bald, North Haven Campground, Osa Trail, Nine Pines and The Oasis at Bear Run Farm.

According to The Dyrt, the awards highlight glamping destinations that feature accommodations ranging from geodesic domes and safari tents to A-frame cabins, converted school buses and space pod-style lodging.
