Glamping? That means glamour + camping. You may like the idea of going camping – brilliant starlight, birdsong as you awaken – but you may feel less enthusiastic about discomforts like sleeping on the forest floor. The solution is glamping: prepared camp sites with amenities like large tents equipped with a full-size bed, sometimes on a foundation, comfortable chairs, wood stove, fire pit, and other conveniences. Glamping provides all the basic (and sometimes better than basic) comforts of home even as you immerse yourself in the quiet, blazing beauty of mountains and forest and lakeside, away from noise and pavement, lighted by stars.
