Camping in the North Dakota winter? Unless you count sitting out in an ice house camping, it’s not a thing many people do or would even consider. But there are ways to camp comfortably during the frigid cold of this season in the Peace Garden State – and it’s better than you could ever imagine. You won’t need to bundle up too much to be able to enjoy this unusual yet luxury-style “glamping” at one of the state’s beautiful state parks. Take a look:

Even in the chill of winter, North Dakota's Fort Ransom State Park has two unusual yet awesome yurts available for reservation. This is a camping experience like no other.

Each yurt is like its own mini cabin, despite being essentially a large tent. They are heated and furnished to be extra cozy.

They even have full kitchens and bathrooms. With two bedrooms and a loft that can sleep up to six people, this is perfect for "glamping," or glamorous camping, any time of the year.
