Glamping is widely available across the state of Maine in many different forms. Is glamping too glamorous a word for you? No worries, Maine offers many rental units in a campground setting. The word glamping was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2016. Defined as a noun: A form of camping involving accommodation and facilities more luxurious than those associated with traditional camping. Campgrounds in Maine are no stranger to the glamping experience. Traditionally we have offered rental units of varying types. The word glamping is new along with the trend. We have long embraced rental units that do not involve sleeping in a tent on the ground or owning an RV. Each year demand for rentals is increasing, allowing the industry to provide a quality environment for the family to enjoy the outdoors. Families are realizing the value these rentals have and how they enhance the outdoor experience. It is also becoming popular for the individual that has to be away on business for a few days and wishes for an alternative to the motel experience.
