Living There
Outdoorsmen (and ladies) have ‘roughed it’ and camped within the outdoors for ages, yet the notion of ‘glamping,’ the cushier and more glamorous version of camping, is something new for grownups who visit Jackson Hole.
Glamping? Can hotels really conjure a service that fuses glamour with camping? It’s being done and greatly enjoyed, so what exactly does the new pastime entail?
Picture Glamping
Picture a woodsy type of person who wants to share the experience of the outdoors with a reluctant mate. Glamping, a new term for glamorous camping, is a middle ground solution. Rather than roughing it, vacationers find a happy medium, enjoying tent-like accommodations that require no assembly and adjacent to private bathing houses, running hot water, and indoor plumbing.
Rural Resort
Much like fusion cooking, the lodging concept offers a unique byproduct. The rugged and rustic outdoors, fused with the desires and accommodations of the 21st century, make for a unique experience. Preassembled tents offer a grounded experience yet leave nothing about the outdoors to the imagination. Vacationers are equidistant from rustic living and plush accommodation.
Multiple Vacations
Heading to Jackson Hole is like booking multiple vacations in one. A glamping experience reserves the right to stay amid the great outdoors. Moreover, between moments of glamping, go to Grand Teton National Park or the town of Jackson. You’ll be minutes away from hiking trails, horse rides, cycle paths, whitewater rafting, and more.
Romantic Getaway
If you mention you’re taking them to the woods for a romantic getaway, you may get a lukewarm reception from a high-maintenance partner. However, upscale amenities and a practical mixture of rustic and modern conveniences, makes the experience unique and setting for a romantic weekend or extended stay.
Cruises, trips to the Caribbean, and weekends in San Francisco are common destinations for lovers, but couples who want to do something extraordinary take advantage of Jackson Hole’s sylvan terrain and star-filled nights. Stay at one of Jackson Hole luxury hotels and ask about ‘glamping’ accommodations or nearby services.
Interior Design
It’s odd to think of interior décor along with the experience of camping yet glamping affords opportunity to arrange your private quarters as you wish, which means dressing the room with implements brought from home or nearby stores. If you’re glamping, you might as well make your tent as glamorous as you wish! Check Pinterest for interior design ideas related to impressing onlookers with small spaces.
Summer Camp
Have you experienced the pleasures of a summer as a child? Relive or realize the experiences for the first time with friends and family members. Glamour camping satisfies the wants, needs, and preferences of multiple parties, allowing for trips to town, hot showers, modern amenities, as well as rustic pleasures that only Jackson Hole can supply.
You may have a local patch of woods nearby, yet it’s likely it does not compare to the scenery available at Jackson Hole. The newfound and hugely popular pastime of glamping introduces yet another adult-friendly reason to head to the mountains of Wyoming.
