Lets go Glamping. A guide to luxury outdoor camping.
So what exactly is glamping? Think luxurious, glamorous -- camping. Gone are the pop up tents, sleeping bags on the hard floor and dinner cooked on an open pit with outdoor bathroom facilities. Glamping is luxurious tents with king size beds, footed tubs and marble baths, secluded tree houses, safari tents, water houses, igloos, huts, eco pods and many more.
Glamping attracts affluent customers who
swore they would never go camping, but will gladly glamp and are willing to pay
for the outdoor luxury. Don’t expect pop
up tent pricing, glamping can be expensive depending on your choice of accommodations. There are thousands of Glamping resorts across
the United States, Europe and the UK. The
options are endless. If you are looking for true high-end luxury glamping,
below are my three picks. You can also research the options at www.glamping.com.

riding, hiking, or enjoying a spa treatment.
