9 Over-the-Top, High-End RVs You Can Rent on Airbnb

Pack your hiking boots, but skip the sleeping bag: It's time to go glamping.

Glamping is for travelers who want to camp in luxury, exploring nature in secluded natural environments but staying in renovated Airstreams or furnished tents with electric ports. It's one reason that recreational vehicles are seeing a resurgence. Sales have been soaring, due to both retiring baby boomers and a new millennial fan base, according to the Wall Street Journal.

But for plenty of people, an RV in the driveway isn't quite as appealing as an occasional weekend in a tricked-out, secluded Airstream. Check out these nine extreme glamping sites, all available on Airbnb.
