What Is Glamping?
Let’s start with the basics. What is glamping? Let’s turn to our trusty friend, the online dictionary:
glamp·ing, /noun
-
a form of camping involving accommodation and facilities more luxurious than those associated with traditional camping. "glamping is likely to satisfy any city slicker seeking a little refuge in nature—without foregoing any of life's luxuries"
It’s a fancy word for glamorous camping. In a posh tent or a glam tent or in a tiny home or a cabin. It is comfortable camping.

What Is Group Glamping?
Group glamping is a comfortable multi-tent set-up that provides luxurious accommodations for small, mid-size, and large groups. It’s for anyone who wants to enjoy the expansive beauty of the outdoors, while also reveling in the feeling of a 5-star getaway. Glamping is for everyone. Even the folks who might shy away from traditional camping experiences are eager to climb on into the exquisiteness of a bell tent that’s been furnished with all the plushness of a private villa. A canvas bell tent, like our popular fernweh tent, is a dreamy space where guests can retreat to rest, renew, and feel pampered. Each fernweh tent can be custom arranged to sleep multiple guests, or can be enjoyed as a private escape with a queen-sized bed.

How To Create A Group Glamping Dream-Come-True
If you have a property on which you frequently host events where guests need overnight accommodations, you may want to consider purchasing a few bell tents of your own. They can be set up to stay up, or can be assembled in mere minutes based on seasonality, or for pop-up glamping experiences.
IF YOU HAVE A VENUE WHICH FREQUENTLY HOSTS LARGE EVENTS LIKE WEDDINGS, MUSIC FESTIVALS, OR GROUP RETREATS, AN INVESTMENT IN A FEW BELL TENTS WILL PAY FOR ITSELF IN NO TIME, AND WILL ADD VALUE, CHARM, AND MARKETABILITY TO YOUR VENUE. PHOTO: GABY ESENSTEN PHOTOGRAPHY
