Glamp Michigan

Glamp Michigan sits on Wallaker Road outside Benzonia, a few miles from Crystal Mountain and within reach of Crystal Lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Arcadia Bluffs and Traverse City. The property holds four distinct units: the Aurora and Löyly domes, each sleeping four and fitted with a full kitchen, and the Lumi and Sol mirror houses, each sleeping two. The mirror houses use reflective glass walls, a design borrowed from ÖÖD, so the structures blend into the surrounding trees while keeping the interior private from the outside.

Every stay comes with its own hot tub, sauna, cold plunge and smokeless fire pit, so there's no sharing amenities between units. Guests have described comfortable indoor temperatures even when it's in the teens outside, and the setting among tall pines gives each dome or mirror house a sense of separation from the others. The location puts skiing, snowboarding and golf at Crystal Mountain within a short drive, along with hiking at Empire Bluff Trail, boating on Crystal Lake, and stops at Benzie County spots like Iron Fish Distillery and St. Ambrose Cellars.

Glamp Michigan operates year-round and has been recognized by USA Today as a top glamping spot. Pets are not permitted, and the property is not on the waterfront, though it's close to Lake Michigan and inland lakes for day trips. Booking happens directly through the Glamp Michigan website, where each of the four units can be checked for availability. Given the attention the property has drawn, including coverage from Dwell, Condé Nast and Travel + Leisure, stays here tend to book up, so reserving ahead is worth doing if specific dates matter.
