​​​​​​​Guide to Airstream Glamping with the Family

Did you know that not only can you own an Airstream RV or camper, but you can rent one for an incredible vacation with your friends and family? Today, glamping, which is defined as camping with more luxurious amenities, is a popular way for people to enjoy the outdoors.

Airstream of Scarborough put this guide to Airstream glamping with the family together, so you can enjoy your time outdoors to the fullest.

What Are the Differences between RV Camping and Glamping?

As mentioned above, glamping is another form of camping except it offers more glam, hence the name. Glamping is fairly new, with it first being introduced in 2005 in the United Kingdom. Those who want to enjoy the outdoors but want to sleep in a bed as opposed to a tent, have running water, functioning bathrooms, etc. may enjoy glamping more than traditional camping.

Glamping often doesn’t require equipment, as the RV you’ll use is packed with everything you need. Camping is more traditional, which means you’ll have to supply everything from firewood to water and everything in between. However, you will need to bring essentials like silverware, cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, etc., when glamping.

Choose Your Rental Airstream Vehicle to Go Glamping 

There are plenty of incredible Airstream RVs and campers you can choose from to go glamping with. Best of all, you can rent one in numerous locations all over the United States.

When you plan for a vacation, you’re likely looking at hotels and different room sizes depending on the number of people joining you. The same can be said for finding an RV. If you’re renting an Airstream, consider the number of people participating, how many rooms there are, the size of the beds, etc.

Once you’ve found the type of Airstream that best fits your needs, consider the surrounding area. Is it a traditional campsite, a lake, etc.? Find out what attractions are nearby. Additionally, consider the time of year. If it’s cold, you may want to be near the mountains. If it’s warm, you may want to be near a body of water.

Glamping With an Airstream RV You Own

Going glamping in an Airstream RV you own is a great idea! If you’re a first-timer, we have some tips to make your excursion an enjoyable experience.

We encourage you to test the waters by glamping somewhere not too far from your home or in your driveway to get a feel for what it would be like in an area you might not be familiar with. Research areas nearby you’d want to experience, whether that’s a lake, forest, etc.

When deciding on a camping spot, check to see if it has essential hookups like water, power, and sewer. Once you’ve pulled into your destination, decide how you want to set up camp and enjoy your time with your Airstream RV, family, and friends!
