With the explosion of interest in the #Vanlife movement taking over Instagram, social media accounts and basically the entire web, there’s a newfound, much broader attention on camping and getting outdoors with friends, family, the dog, etc. Given the growing popularity of hitting the trail without leaving all the comforts of home behind, we’ve compiled 18 of our favorite “glamping” accessories. These products may not be the most weight-efficient or portable for deep backcountry adventures, but they provide that extra bit of luxury when it comes time to set up shop for a few days. So, fill up the tank, make your way to the campsite and get out there before summer comes to a close.

CampStove 2, FlexLight, KettlePot and CoffeePress, BioLite
CampStove 2, $129.95 / FlexLight, $14.95 / KettlePot, $49.95 / CoffeePress, $14.95
Here we have the CampStove 2 and FlexLight; the KettlePot; and CoffeePress, by BioLite. The CampStove 2 itself is touted as a “smokeless” campfire. It burns twigs, wood chips, etc. and it cooks meals and boils water in mere minutes. The CampStove 2 also generates three watts of electricity for charging phones and other small devices like the included FlexLight—a light affixed to a bendable cord, convenient for nighttime or early-morning use. Electricity generated by the CampStove may also be stored via the on-board 2,600 mAh battery.
The KettlePot “pours like a kettle and cooks like a pot,” and it also doubles as a carry case for the CampStove 2. It holds 1.5 liters of coffee (or whatever else you cook up—might we suggest the Pad Thai and Thai Curry offered by Good To-Go). The CoffeePress nests with the CampStove inside of the KettlePot and is made with stainless steel and BPA-free polypropylene. French press in the wilderness? Damn straight; show the world just how serious you are about your coffee intake. All items sold separately; coffee beans not included.

Table XS Lite, LEKI
As any experienced car-camper can relate to, the bulky gear is what you can’t leave home without and helps make the experience that much more unforgettable. One such item you can’t “glamp” without is a camp table. Fortunately, for the space savers out there, LEKI created the Table XS Lite. It has almost unnoticeable pack size and weighs next-to-nothing, leaving room for an extra case of beer or a few more folding chairs. It stands just over a foot tall, but is the perfect height for the majority of camp chairs out there that leave you low to the ground. The legs also adjust letting the table adapt to varying ground surfaces while still holding your drink or game of poker steady.

Sub 1 camping chair, LEKI
This camp chair blurs the lines of backcountry and car-camping specific use. Weighing only 940 grams, this bad boy can accompany you on smaller backpacking trips without sacrificing comfort and stability. This chair was almost over-engineered: It boasts lightweight fiberglass reinforced plastic joints, a mesh seat for superior ventilation on summer nights and high-strength aluminum shafts to support all shapes and sizes of campfire-goers. The carrying case quickly fastens under the base of the chair to hold your phone, snacks or whatever supplies the particular occasion demands. The most crucial feature is the included cup holder that attaches on either side to ensure no party fouls are committed. We thought we’d never be this impressed by a camp chair. Bravo, LEKI, bravo.

Yeti 400 Portable Power Station & Boulder 50W Solar Panel Kit, by Goal Zero
Ditch the fumes and hit the road with this sustainable, notably quiet, and ultra-portable power station from the gadget-makers at Goal Zero. This is the ideal system for the explorer that often spends multiple days off the grid, yet still requires significant power demands like keeping laptops, tablets, cameras and speakers charged for continued connectivity away from home.
What’s amazing is you can charge this beast in three different ways. Using solar rays from the sun, the Boulder 50-watt panel will charge the Yeti 400 power station in 16 to 32 hours, depending on the amount of light it receives; via a wall outlet there’s a five hour fill up time; and if you plug it in while you’re driving, it takes a total of 13 hours using the 12-volt adapter found in most automobiles. Trust this tech and join us in saying sayonara to dead appliances in the backcountry.
