There’s no doubt that more Americans are camping than ever before. According to a recent KOA survey, 56.9 million families would camp in 2021, an increase of over 15 million households from 2019.
In addition, more than 9 million families were first-time campers in 2021. As the number of campers grows, campsites and campgrounds are expanding and opening new places to meet the demand.
Whether you’re a first-time camper or a seasoned visitor, these are the new campsite and glamping spots launching in 2023.
Glamping Sites Set to Launch in 2023
AutoCamp
Autocamp has been creating glamping experiences that “bring high-end, boutique-style facilities, mid-century modern decor, and friendly hospitality to some of the world’s most stunning natural areas” since 2013.
It will provide glamping experiences in Zion National Park, Asheville, North Carolina, Hill Country, Texas, and Sequoia National Park in California beginning in 2023.
AutoCamp Zion is set to debut in the spring of 2023 outside of Zion National Park. Glampers may stay in a vintage 31-foot Airstream trailer, suites, or canvas tents.
Although no official opening dates have been announced, tourists may anticipate the other four venues to launch later this year.
AutoCamps are recognized for providing premium outdoor adventures with picturesque cottages snuggled into the surrounding environment, elegant facilities, and dreamlike experiences.
