Glamping In Michigan

Glamping is all the rage in Michigan at the moment. While you may think that you’ve missed out on glamping over the summer, many people go glamping in locations around Michigan during the winter months. So you might be wondering:

What is Glamping?

Glamping, also known as glamorous camping or luxury camping, is the 21st century’s response to traditional camping. Glamping is for travelers who want to experience the glamorous and more positive aspects of camping but want to bypass everything negatively associated with camping. While you may want to go kayaking, hiking and have a meal by the fireplace on your camping trip, you may not want to bring your own kayaks, plan out a route for hiking or prepare a fire and pack a meal for your trip.

Various sites and locations are starting to provide glamping services across Michigan for travelers who want a unique camping experience but do not want to have to deal with the less glamorous aspects of camping.
