Host cancelled at last minute without providing any reason. Couldn't find anywhere else to book in that area. We had to cancel our other planned activities costing us a pretty penny. Thank you Glampin... See more

Useless website

I booked a "glamping" site on this website, 11 months prior to the stay. I provided credit card info. Then the website just did nothing. The reservation expired because no one made sure it went through.
This is a useless website. I'll just use AirBNB in the future.

I booked a stay through Glamping Hub

I booked a stay through Glamping Hub, my wife and I had to cancel due to our grand baby having an emergency surgery, sent emails and texts. My bank was charged and I have been given the run around for months now. They won’t refund my money and won’t answer the phone or email me back to tell me what they are willing to do.

Avoid using this site

I used this site for the first time and never again! I booked a month in advance for my birthday. My reservation was cancelled 4 days prior due to “overbooking”. My 2 day booking was cancelled so that a 7 day booking including my dates could be reserved despite being booked after me. The customer service is horrible I should have read these reviews first. Trust the bad reviews and avoid at all costs!!

Agree with former reviewers that…

Agree with former reviewers that pricing is unreliable. Although we had a Confirmed reservation the host (apparently quite greedy) then told us the price would be 10x higher(!) if we wanted to come. Host told us to agree to the new price or cancel. When I attempted to cancel, I got an auto message that we would be charged $315 for the cancellation(!). After receiving insulting email from host suggesting we were trying to sneak in at a lower price (uh, hello, we booked through the system that sets the price!), I had to reach out to Glamping Hub.

Glamping Hub agreed to refund our full price, but not to honor the reservation. Overall a total waste of time. I've never had issues like this with VRBO or AirBNB. Find a more reliable site to book your vacation!

Glampinghub wasn't reliable for our trip

I attempted to book a cabin for the weekend in Somerset KY. Oddly, Glampinghub.com required us to register on their site and to use a credit card to hold the cabin. However, it didn't immediately confirm. I attempted to contact the host for the cabin, and Glampinghub stripped all my contact information from the email I sent to the host. Gampinghub sent me an email with an "inquiry number," which suggested some notification process was occurring behind the scenes. However, after driving halfway to our cabin, we managed to find a phone number for the rental cabin host on another website. We called and learned they were closed for the season. Further, they said they did not have a business relationship with Glampinghub.com.
Additionally, the information provided on Glampinghub about the rental cabins was incorrect. It stated the location was great for year-round trips, but the cabins are closed in winter. We found accommodations elsewhere via other means. I do not recommend Glampinghub for these reasons.

Terrific Experience with their Support Team

Big shoutout to Emily on the Glamping Hub Customer Success and Support team. While the hub's website and processes are a bit suspect, Emily was very helpful in fixing a gift card issue I had. Basically she escalated my issue for me, and was able to get it fixed for me quickly. I see many of the negative reviews on this site, but for me, the customer support I received was top notch. Thanks Emily!

Glamping Hub Host Katie Biel is deceptive and stole our $$$$

Glamping Hub host - Katie Biel aka Driftwood Hospitality LLC has a place listed as Mill Spring Glamping Yurt. We tried to cancel our reservations for this weekend as I came down with Covid and cannot travel. The host- Katie Biel- not only refused to give us a refund but also refused to offer us any other dates. I did write a scathing email and told her that since she has $1,200.00 of our money we will be there. She then decided to CANCEL our reservation and REFUSED to return our money. Glamping Hub has tried to intervene, but the host _KATIE BIEL is refusing to even work with them. DO NOT EVER USE - MILL SPRING GLAMPING YURT - OR ANY OTHER PLACE THAT KATIE BIEL OFFERS.

This site is a scam

This site is a scam
I requested a booking and reached out to the host to ask a few questions. I never got a reply for anything. I tried to book another cabin and the same thing happened. No message about request approval or denial. It's a waste of time and they also ask for your c.c. information up front. This site might just be after your c.c. information so I recommend that you don't book here.

No leniency for emergencies

The cancellation policy and leniency, along with the lack of responsiveness, made this a very sad experience. It was my husband’s birthday, and the host’s policy is very strict after 24 hours. We weren’t able to make it because of an unexpected doctor’s appointment. We of course knew we’d have to pay the base rate, but we were charged with everything—including pet fees and cleaning fees. GlampingHub’s response didn’t feel considerate at all; instead, it felt condescending. In all, it was a sad, exhausting experience, especially for my husband’s birthday. I don’t think I would recommend this website.

Horrible service, might be a SCAM

Not just a waste of time, those listing properties are engaging in the illegal practice of bait and switch. I requested a booking which totaled $917, waited days for a response, only to receive the message "Hi, This property is available. The price should be $1,187". Then the updated booking email came which had the price raised to $1,388. I NEVER received a response from Glamping Hub. No support, no control over their platform. STAY AWAY FROM GLAMPING HUB!!!

Waste of time

This site is a joke and they are not very forthcoming about their problems. I requested booking, it was declined for no reason, and when I requested an explanation they wrote me and said “the owner wrote you about other availability.” They didn’t mention the problem, which is that their site was listing dates as available when they were not available and the owner couldn’t get them to fix it. I found a better glamping option on Airbnb and had no problems reserving it. I tried to explain this to the owner and they edited out “Airbnb” from my message. Dude, get together! This site is not ready for prime time.

For me it was a horrible experience to book via this site. The host and I repeatedly tried to change the booking dates and it took a week and a half to get it done (after repeatedly communicating with the customer service). Also I think that the percentage of the total booking price which goes to Glampinghub is absolutely disgusting: A whopping 20 percent! I advice you not to book from this site. There are lots of other options.

Terrible company

Terrible company. In trying to cancel my reservation 28 days out they only return 50% of the money and they also keep the “service fee” and tax. It’s a shady business. Every other site will cancel and return your fee. Do NOT use this site

As a former host

As a former host, I can attest that Glamping Hub is horrible. Their technology and customer service are a joke. Stick with Airbnb, VRBO, and Hipcamp.

Glamping.com is a SCAM

This site is a SCAM. I found a Red River, NM house on glamping.com that was MUCH cheaper than it should have been, which was the first red flag. While continuing my search for a vacation rental on other websites, I came across the SAME house on VRBO. When I contacted the owners, they said they ONLY list their house on VRBO. They had no idea their house was even listed for rental on glamping.com and that it must be a total SCAM. So glad I didn't rent through glamping.com. Do yourself a favor and stick with reputable sites like VRBO or Airbnb.

Cancellation on part of host

My host needed to cancel due to weather issues which was understandable, but it took me four methods of trying to contact before receiving notice.

Cancellation on the part of the host caused need for me to communicate directly with GlampingHub to receive refund, but did receive. Still stuck with no reservations 2 days before a holiday weekend.

DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS SITE

I wanted to book a cabin in January for my birthday and didn't want to wait for the last minute..I checked the glamhub site numerous time viewing their cabin options but I didn't check their reviews DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE that most of us made. I book the cabin in last week I wanted (Aug) put my credit card on file.. made sure I received an email to confirm ..I reached out to the host to also confirm..went on with my life..i received a message back from the host that read ( Please contact me on (deleted content) )???confused by the delete content part..I wanted to add an additional day..so I reached out again.. the message this time said..(This is not an confirmed booking. We do not use this site any longer and some of the info is not up to date. we do have the dates you requested available but you will have to find us somewhere else to book and we can not state where..we have our own platform we look forward to speaking to you) ????? At this point it seemed shady so now my concern was making sure my credit card would not be compromised.. I called Glamping Hub (no answer) first the voice-mail said leave ur booking number and we will call you back or you can email us.. I call the very next day (no answer) Now the voice-mail says due to a situation we are no longer taking calls just email us.. SHADY! Today Sept 1 I get a email that my booking was declined from the Host and my card will not be charged.. So happy for that.. Do not waste ur time with this bougus site..
