Glamping Bedroom Accessories and Supplies
Gel-Infused Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress
A comfortable glamping bed is essential, and I chose the Zinus Gel-Infused Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress for its cooling comfort and affordability. This mattress turns a simple camping trip into a true luxury glamping experience, ensuring guests wake up refreshed and ready for adventure.
Memory Foam Floor Pad
Adding memory foam floor pads is an easy way to increase sleeping options in your glamping rental. I added two six-inch pads that fold up for storage or can double as seating, letting me host 2-4 people instead of just 1-2—perfect for families with kids.
Ecofriendly Bamboo Sheets
For a touch of luxury in your glamping bed, I chose eco-friendly bamboo sheets that are soft, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating—perfect for a comfortable night’s sleep. They come in many colors to match any décor and are great for different climates.
Hypoallergenic Down Alternative Pillows
No glamping bed is complete without comfortable pillows, and these hypoallergenic down alternative ones are soft, supportive, and suit all sleep styles. From my hosting experience, quality pillows make a big difference in guest satisfaction and a good night’s sleep.
Extra Blankets & Decorative Camp Themed Throw Pillows
Extra blankets are a must-have for glamping, and I added soft, colorful handwoven Mexican blankets made from recycled materials that bring a cozy, campy vibe. To add personality and comfort, I also included durable camp-themed throw pillows with a rough texture that hold up well to daily use.
Kitchen Accessories and Supplies for your Glamping Rental
Mini fridge
A reliable mini-fridge is essential for glamping, keeping food and drinks fresh while still enjoying the outdoors. I chose a stylish retro compact fridge with a separate freezer and 3.1 cubic feet of space—just right for storing a few days’ worth of perishables.
Double Burner Countertop Cooktop
Space is tight in glamping rentals, so a portable double burner cooktop is ideal for easy meal prep. I chose an electric model, but if power’s limited, a propane version works just as well—either way, guests can enjoy cooking simple meals during their stay.
French Press Coffee Maker
For coffee-loving guests, a French press is a perfect glamping upgrade—it brews rich coffee without using power, ideal for off-grid setups. I chose a heavy-duty stainless steel model that’s rust-resistant and dishwasher safe, perfect for mornings outside the tent.
Portable Espresso Machine
For those who need more than just a regular cup of coffee, this mini portable espresso machine is a must-have for any glamping rental. I use this product myself on camping trips and realized that it would be the perfect addition to my glamping rental. This machine is simple to operate and all you need is hot water to create the perfect cup of espresso.
Enamel Camping Mugs
While searching for glassware for my Airbnb, I found this set of 12 oz enamel camping mugs—durable, plastic-free, and non-toxic. They’re a perfect fit for the glamping kitchen, and guests love enjoying their morning coffee in these nature-themed mugs.
Outdoors Pioneer Table Set
Stocking durable dishes is essential for any rental, and after dealing with breaks and chips, I switched to the GSI Outdoors Pioneer Table Set. Made from heavy-gauge steel, this 12-piece set is tough, nestable, and easy to store in small spaces.
Camp Kitchen Cooking Utensil Set
Cooking utensils are a must for any glamping rental, but space is limited, so I chose this 11-piece set that includes essentials like knives, tongs, and a spatula—all neatly stored in a compact, water-resistant travel case with a small cutting board.
Stainless Steel Stemless Wine Glasses
Durability is key when furnishing a glamping rental, since items face both indoor and outdoor wear. I chose a set of four stainless steel tumblers with lids—perfect for keeping drinks clean by the fire and adding a touch of luxury to the experience.
Cast Iron Cookware Set
Cast Iron Cookware is durable and perfect for a glamping kitchen. This is the set I use in my rental and it is so versatile. It has 11-pieces (the pizza pan is my new favorite accessory) and comes with a rack organizer. The best part about this cookware is that it can be used on a stovetop, a grill, or even over an open campfire.
Living Room Supplies and Accessories for Glamping
Outdoor String Lights
Even without a traditional living room, it’s important to decorate common areas, and I love the string lights I added around the campsite. They create a cozy glow, work indoors or outdoors, and use energy-saving LED bulbs—perfect for solar setups.
Wood Burning Stove
To create a cozy, authentic glamping experience, I added a wood-burning camp stove to my rental, and guests love it. With a glass door for fire views and the ability to heat up to 1200 sq. ft., it keeps the tent warm even in winter.
Portable Space Heater
If a wood-burning stove isn’t an option, a portable space heater is essential to keep guests warm at night. This small ceramic heater safely warms up to 200 sq. ft. and has a quiet fan, making it perfect for smaller tents.
Boardgames
Board games are a great addition to remote rentals, giving guests—especially families—a fun way to unwind outdoors. I added a classic games set to one of my rentals, and it’s always a hit.
Boho Braided Area Rug
Adding a colorful braided cotton rug inside your glamping tent creates a cozy, homey feel and gives guests something soft underfoot after taking off their hiking boots.
Potted Succulents
To keep the nature theme strong in my glamping rental, I added low-maintenance succulents that bring a splash of color and a natural touch to shelves, tables, and countertops without the hassle of high upkeep.
Glamping Bathroom Essentials
Nature’s Head Composting Toilet
Most glamping tents are built far from the luxury of running water so you will need to consider a bathroom option for your guests. This composting toilet is the perfect environmentally friendly glamping accessory. It is easy to install and has a large capacity.
Bath Towels & Makeup Removing Washcloths
Soft cotton towels are essential for any rental, and I chose luxury 100% cotton bath towels that hold up well to daily use and machine washing. To help guests remove makeup without ruining towels, I added dark grey makeup cloths that are durable and stain-resistant—perfect for a glamping stay.
Biodegradable Body Wipes
Sometimes when you’re camping or glamping, a full shower isn’t necessary (or possible), but you still may want to get the day’s sunscreen and bug spray off your body before you crawl into bed. I started providing these biodegradable body wipes for my guests and have received great feedback.
These are perfect for quickly freshening up, are unscented so they don’t attract bugs, and are great for all skin types.
Heated Shower System
You can’t have luxury camping without a hot shower, and even without water service, a portable propane-heated shower pump with a water reservoir makes it possible. This compact system works with electric or propane power, giving guests a refreshing hot shower after a day of outdoor adventures.
Glamping Accessories & Gear for the Outdoors
Solar Powered Pathway Lights
When luxury camping in remote spots, it gets very dark without light pollution, so I added solar-powered pathway lights for safety and comfort. They help guests navigate paths or the area around the tent after sunset, making the space safer and more welcoming.

Coleman Camping Chairs
These Adirondack Chairs were a perfect glamping gear addition to my glamp sites. They are an exquisite camp chair for lounging near the fire or sitting to eat a quick meal. The camping chair seats are surprisingly comfortable on their own. I like that they are collapsible with folding legs, so they are easy store when you’re not using them. Give these camping chairs a try…you won’t be disappointed.
Portable Propane Grill
Grilling is a camping favorite, so I added a compact propane grill to my rental for an extra cooking option. It features a convenient push-button start, cooks plenty of food despite its size, and folds up for easy storage—perfect for grilling hot dogs and more on a glamping trip.
Hammock
No campsite is complete without a comfy hammock to lounge in. A hammock is one of the great glamping accessories if your rental is in a location with a lot of trees.
I chose this camping hammock because it is lightweight and easy to set up. It is made from canvas and can hold up to 500lbs, so it is safe for two people.
Outdoor Fire Pit
In some locations, it isn’t safe or legal to have an open flame bonfire so adding a metal fire pit to your property can be the next best thing. This allows your guests to safely enjoy an evening around the fire while glamping.
The Sunnydaze Outdoor Fire Pit is large and heavy duty and is coated with rust-resistant paint. It even comes with a spark screen for an extra layer of safety. If your rental is in a dry climate prone to fires, this essential luxury camping gear item is extra important.
Outdoor Area Rug
Just like an indoor rug, an outdoor rug makes the campsite feel homey and welcoming. I chose to put this outdoor rug by the entrance to the glamping tent so guests can take their shoes off outside, step on the rug, and keep the inside of the tent dirt-free.
The Unique Loom Outdoor Rug comes in a variety of beautiful colors, is easy to clean, and comes in several different sizes.
Marshmallow Roasting Sticks
I am a firm believer that you aren’t actually camping until you are roasting marshmallows for some delicious s’mores. I’ve found that providing guests with extra little thoughtful items – like this set of 10 roasting sticks—really takes their experience in your rental to the next level. These special touches ensure that your guests will create some amazing memories around the bonfire with their friends and family enjoying roast marshmallows.
Glamping Technology for Your Guests
Solar Panels
If you want to provide electricity for your guests, solar panels are the best way to keep your campsite powered. Having some sort of power at the site is what really distinguishes camping from glamping.
I use several types of solar panels but the Jackery SolarSaga portable solar panel is a great smaller option. This solar panel has USB outlets for phones and electronics and built-in stands so you can position it at the best angle depending on the sun.
Charging Station
Packing for a big glamping trip can be stressful and it is common to forget something – usually a charger or cord for your favorite device. A charging station and extra charging cords are essential glamping accessories and my guests couldn’t be more grateful.
This charging station can charge up to five devices at once and you can keep your devices organized with the adjustable partitions.
Rechargeable Batteries
Just like chargers and cords, batteries are one of the best glam camping accessories to have on hand for your battery-operated glamping equipment. I found this Energizer battery charger that comes with rechargeable batteries so my guests will never have to worry about dead batteries.
Bluetooth Speaker
It’s always nice to be able to listen to your favorite music when you’re enjoying some luxury camping, so I added a Bluetooth speaker to my luxury camping gear collection. This speaker is made for the outdoors, so it is perfect for some camping luxury. It is waterproof, has great bass, and will play for up to 1500 minutes on a single charge.
Your guests will love sitting by the fire listening to their favorite tunes while they enjoy their luxury camping experience.
Portable Fan
For warm nights in the tent, having a fan can be a necessity. This little rechargeable battery-operated fan is the perfect size to keep air moving and keep your guests cool on hot summer nights.
This fan conveniently has a clip so you can move and secure it wherever you may need it. It also has four speeds and actually packs a lot of power for such a small unit.
Portable Power Station
This portable power station is the perfect way to ensure your guests always have easy access to power and it can even be paired with the solar panels mentioned earlier. In addition to using solar panels, this power station can be recharged with a wall outlet or car outlet. It features multiple outputs for various devices like a mini-fridge or air pump.
Safety Essentials for Glamping
LED Camping Lanterns
In case your power sources fail, it is important for your guest’s safety that they have lanterns. I added these battery-powered LED lanterns for my glamping gear lineup.
These lanterns are waterproof and feature a hook so they can be hung up to light a large area. My guests can rest assured that if they lose power, they won’t have to worry about lighting.
First Aid Kit
When you’re out camping or even on a glamping trip it’s important to be prepared in the event of an emergency. Whenever I talk to new hosts, I always encourage them to add a first aid kit to their glamping accessories arsenal. I like this first aid kit because it has 299 pieces of essential gear from bandages, to burn gel, to Ibuprofen tablets.
Sometimes glamping rentals can be far away from help. Having a first aid kid like this in your rental could save a guest’s life.
Bug Spray
You can’t have a luxury camping experience without some solid bug spray. Bugs can ruin any good camping trip, so you want to be sure you supply your guests with some courtesy repellant. You never know who will be staying in your rental so a natural bug spray like this one is a great option. It is made with lemon and eucalyptus oil and is DEET-free.
Special Touches to Bring Your Glamping Rental to the Next Level
Glamping Guide Book
I always like to add special personalized touches to my rentals. When I saw this book, “Comfortably Wild: The Best Glamping Destinations in North America”, I knew I had to have it for my glamping tent.
Guests can flip through this fun read and get a whole lot of inspiration for their next glamping trip.
Dog Bowls (If your rental is pet friendly)
My rental is dog-friendly, so I make sure to have these collapsible bowls available for my guests. These bowls are great to pack on day outings because they are lightweight and collapse flat. They also have a carabiner so they can be easily attached to a backpack.
Telescope
There is nothing better than stargazing from a campsite far from civilization with no light pollution. A telescope will allow your guests to really immerse themselves in the magic of being off the grid.
This is a great telescope that is easy to use and great for beginners. It folds up and fits into a convenient carry bag so it can be put away when it’s not being used.
Guestbook
I must admit, the guestbook is more for me than it is for my guests, but it is a great touch and I recommend that all hosts have one in their rental.
Some guests like to leave a detailed diary of their stay, while some like to just sign their names. Either way, it’s a great way to not only get feedback about your rental but to allow the next set of guests to connect with the prior guests.
Dream Catcher
A dream catcher is one of the best glamping gear accessories to add a little magic. Hang this beautiful dream catcher above the bed in your rental so your guests can not only sleep well but also have sweet dreams.
