Have you ever just wished, after one of those days, that you could just escape to an island in the middle of nowhere? Well, now you can. Even better? You don’t even have to leave PA. This enchanting inn in Pennsylvania offers a good night’s sleep in a luxurious tent. And, to get there, you have to take a canoe.

The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort beckons travelers with its rooms, cottages, and lodge. But, for a really extraordinary experience, make reservations for the glamping island.

Shawnee Island Glamping, nestled on a private island on the Delaware River, promises a relaxing experience away from the excitement of the mainland.

Once there, discover four luxury tents, each decked out with a queen bed and a day bed. Of course, you’ll also have other amenities such as a lamp and a lantern, a heater and a fan, and an alarm clock.

The communal setting of the tents offers the ideal opportunity to make new friends and to share a unique experience with fellow travelers.

Check-in time at the glamping island varies depending on the time of the year. All guests arrive at and depart from the island, via canoe, at the same time.

Guests can spend the day on the mainland, indulging in the inn’s amenities or exploring the area, before returning to the island for the evening. (The island is closed during the day.)
