Photo: Autocamp It's no huge secret that we're not exactly the camping type around here. But I'll at least speak for myself that this has nothing to do with the awe and wonder of being immersed in nature and everything to do with desiring some basic amenities, comfort, and vibes while taking in the original aesthetic environments. Glamping exists in that perfect middle ground: you get the forest, the canyon, the desert, the starry sky, but you also get the rainfall shower, a comfy mattress, the design-forward interiors, and the fire pit without the tent stakes in your back. These are the glamping destinations across the country that have figured out how to make nature feel less like roughing it and more like a really beautiful retreat.
