As glamping continues to grow in popularity, it’s also taken on many forms. From lavish glamping resorts complete with high-end tents and cabins, spa treatments, and fine dining, to less extravagant experiences with fewer amenities and more traditional camping accommodations, there’s sure to be a retreat that meets your needs and price range.
What’s the Difference Between Glamping and RV Camping?
For RV owners, dishing out money for an upscale camping adventure might seem unnecessary when you already have a roof over your head, but owning your own rig doesn’t mean you miss out on the comforts and luxuries of glamping. Here are accessories you can add to your RV and campsite to turn your rig into the ultimate glamping destination on wheels.
Glamping Decor
Changing your interior and exterior camping decor transforms your RV into a stylish, glamp-ready rig. Accessories like lights and pillows are easy solutions for enhancing your camping environment.
Interior Lighting
Change out your RV’s interior lighting with modern options like pendant lights and sconces.
Exterior Lighting
Decorate your outdoor area with easy-to-install USB lighting kits that can be easily packed up when you’re ready to leave camp.
Outdoor Rug
An outdoor camping rug is a great way to decorate your outdoor living space. Some options, like this one from Glamplife, even include a carrying bag for easy storage in your rig.
Indoor/Outdoor Pillows
Already have pillows in your RV? These indoor/outdoor pillow covers are perfect for changing up your space without having to purchase new pillows—plus, you can use them inside your RV or outside at your campsite.

Camping Loveseat
Your campsite seating accommodations can make or break your outdoor experience. Give yourself more room and comfort with a foldable loveseat.
Shower Upgrade
If your rig is equipped with a shower, replace the showerhead with one that has increased pressure and advanced setting options. If you’re traveling in a smaller RV, outfit your exterior with a heated shower so you can skip the communal bathhouse.
How to Wallpaper Your RV Bathroom
Luxe Living
From spa treatments to additional living space, these RV accessories give you the luxury of a glamping retreat without having to book a reservation.
Outdoor Theater
Turn your campsite into a movie theater with an outdoor projector. Drape a sheet on the outside of your rig or use a portable screen and stand—but be sure to follow campground quiet hours so you don’t disturb your neighbors.
Massage Gun
For those who enjoy spa treatments while on vacation, a massage gun will be your new favorite camping accessory.
Screen Room
Adding additional space to your RV is easier than you might think. Extend your living space with an awning attachment for more room to eat, entertain, relax, and even sleep. Plus, it protects you from the sun and bugs.
Foot Spa
This portable foot spa is the perfect way to treat your feet after a long day of hiking, biking, or exploring the outdoors.
Hot Tub
Not every camping location will support this RV glamping accessory, but a portable hot tub can be a fun addition to your campsite. You’ll need water and electric hookups (and some patience, depending on the outdoor temperature).
