Glamp With Fido at a Pet-Friendly Airstream Retreat

Posted by Lauren Barker

There’s nothing more iconic and recognizable in the camping world today than the rounded corners and polished aluminum finish of a genuine Airstream travel trailer. Wally Byam designed the first Airstream in 1929, and today both vintage and modern versions are seen on the road and in campsites around the country. Book a trip to glamp with Fido in one of these pet-friendly campgrounds and resorts featuring the famous Silver Bullets.

Flying Flags RV Resort & Campground is a one-of-a-kind luxury camping experience. Fido can join you in one of the Superior Airstreams, which sleeps two people. Each one has been refurbished and decorated in a different theme. Four-legged guests are also welcome at the Canned Ham/Airstream site, which features one of each trailer and sleeps four. Your pup will enjoy meeting new friends in the off-leash dog park, at the Fireside Lounge, or while dining on the patio of the Campfire Café. During your visit, travel five minutes down the road to OstrichLand USA, where leashed canines are welcome on guided tours that allow you to feed and visit with ostriches and emus.

Two dogs of any size are permitted to stay in Airstreams, cabins, cottages, trailers and safari tents for an additional fee of $50 per stay.

Spend a weekend with Fido in a modernized vintage Airstream at Ofland Escalante. Located near Bryce Canyon National Park and within Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, you’re just minutes from adventure. Ofland was built on the grounds of an old drive-in movie theater and still utilizes one of the screens for nightly movies which you can view from vintage cars. Within the pet-friendly Airstream, you’ll find modern comforts, skylights, and plenty of space to spread out. Guests have access to a fully stocked spa-quality shared bathhouse with heated outdoor showers, and free WiFi, an onsite food truck, a swimming pool and a hot tub to round out the amenities for humans. The property sells DIY meal kits if you want to cook dinner in your Airstream, but if you’re in the mood for a gourmet burger or a Chicago dog, Circle D Eatery is just a short drive into town and Fido is welcome on their outdoor patio.

Dogs of any size are welcome in designated Airstream trailers and luxury cabins at Ofland Escalante for no additional fee.

Escape with your pup to three beautiful acres on the Washington coast at Sou’wester Historic Lodge and Vintage Travel Trailer Resort.

If you prefer a little more privacy, The Airstream, a 1960’s trailer, is nestled in a cove surrounded by trees. Human guests may enjoy the Garden Spa and Finnish Sauna, shop in the Thrifty travel trailer store or sip on a warm beverage in “The Q-Tea” tea trailer. While you’re there, explore the Long Beach Peninsula and spend a day walking Fido in the footsteps of Lewis and Clark on the 8.5-mile Discovery Trail, a paved oceanfront pathway stretching from North Long Beach to Ilwaco.

Escape to the Mesa of Taos and relax with Fido at Hotel Luna Mystica. This campground and vintage trailer hotel has three Airstream trailers and 19 additional vintage campers. Spend the night in Apollo, a 1960 Southern Pacific Railroad Airstream that once rode the rails providing accommodations for railway workers; Ralphie, a 1962 Airstream Overlander with a southwest canyon vibe; or Sundance, a 1961 Silver Bullet with an outlaw theme. No matter which one you choose, you’ll enjoy the New Mexico sunset from your private deck with leash hooks to keep Fido close, and a sky full of stars above your private outdoor fire pit. If you don’t feel like cooking, grab dinner and a drink just across the street on the pet-friendly patio of Taos Mesa Brewing. You might even catch live music on one of their three outdoor stages.

Caravan Outpost is home to 11 vintage Airstream trailers, five of which allow furry friends. Book Lala, Earl, Yeti, Frida or Audrey, and you’ll feel at home with a queen-size bed, foldout full-size bed, kitchen and bathroom. Unwind by listening to Fido’s favorite tunes on the record player with an assortment of vinyl to choose from. Each Airstream has an outdoor sitting area, and although the outpost is located in downtown Ojai, the garden oasis will make you feel like you’re miles away. The Mediterranean climate of the Ojai Valley makes it the perfect location for growing grapes, so take the time to visit Topa Mountain Winery with your pooch, and grab a seat on the patio or explore the two beautiful acres of outdoor space.
