What is Glamping?

Glamping, short for “glamorous camping,” is a style of camping whether in New Brunswick or your own backyard that combines the comforts and luxury of a hotel stay with the experience of being in nature.

It offers an alternative to traditional camping, which can often involve sleeping on the ground in a small tent with minimal amenities, and pretty much guarantees an unconventional and memorable experience.

Glamping accommodations vary widely but can include large tents with comfortable beds, electricity, and sometimes even heating and air conditioning.

Some glamping sites offer fully equipped kitchens, private bathrooms, and outdoor living areas with social-media-worthy furniture and fire pits. Many glamping sites also offer other unique accommodations like treehouses, yurts, and Airstream trailers.

Glamping is a popular choice for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors without sacrificing comfort and luxury. It is also popular for special occasions such as weddings and romantic getaways (like couples retreats).

Glamping sites can be found in various locations, including national parks, private land, and even urban areas.
