In short, the term “glamping” means glamorous camping, but there are many different levels of this activity. To some, it strays away from the raw connection with nature and is more of an outdoor hotel experience equipped with a comfy bed and a porcelain throne. Glamping is increasing in popularity and giving people who might not be so inclined to go camping, a chance to experience it at their own level of comfort. Are you a glamper or more of a traditional camper? Well, here is a range of amenities offered by Shoreline Inclusive Camping that can fit your level of accommodations.
Dining
Planning meals can be complicated when staying outdoors. Fire is generally the primary source for cooking food when camping, but what you use to prepare the meals with can expand your options. Shoreline Inclusive Camping provides different levels of grilling equipment within their packages.
• A roasting stick can easily cook weenies over a fire, but you’re limited to items that will stay on a stick
• A hanging grill grate will stand over the fire that will allow you to cook more than just hot dogs while preserving space on the campsite.
• A gas or charcoal grill will give you more space to cook items and will offer a faster cooking time.
Choosing how you eat your freshly prepared meal is also an amenity that differs. You could eat with nothing but your bare hands, or you could use plates and utensils. Most packages offer a table for a more comfortable dining experience.
Whether you are content with a bowl full of trail mix or you would like a four-course meal, there are dining options for all Campers and Glampers.
