Glamour Camping at Yale Manor

Camping is something that allows us to reconnect with nature by mimicking the way we used to live on this planet. Without houses made of stone or steel, and a lifestyle that meant traveling was constant, many of our early nomadic peoples erected tents or huts that were quickly and easily taken down and reconstructed in a new place. On the rugged steppes of Central Asia, Turkish and Mongolian nomads used round, canvas-made dwellings called yurts.

While our Western yurts are made of hi-tech materials that make them sturdier and more permanent, their design is inspired by these traditional dwellings in order to use as the location of your next (or first!) glamour camping adventure. If that’s another term you’re not familiar with, glamour camping, or “glamping”, is camping in luxury without all the nuisances or downsides to regular camping. Wherever you find the words glamour camping, expect to be camping in luxury with amenities like a full bathroom, refrigeration, high-speed internet, and television.

Yale Manor is the first location in the Finger Lakes region to have yurts available for your glamour camping vacation. Our yurts are named Honeoye, Cazenovia, Keuka, and Oneida. All luxury yurts at Yale Manor feature a king bed, full bath, SmarTV, WiFi, refrigerator, toaster oven, and microwave. It’s a little more luxurious and a lot more enjoyable so you can focus your attention and energy to some good old-fashioned rest and relaxation. Get a breathtaking view of the lake, kick your feet up beside the fireplace, or sun-bathe on the dock, our yurts are the premier destination for glamour camping in the Finger Lakes.
