Located among majestic Coastal Redwood trees along the pristine Big Sur River, is the dream of two fellas Don McQuuen and Walter Trotter’s , the Big Sur Campground and Cabins .
Big Sur Campground and Cabins offers tent-Cabins which are located right on the riverbank, and include a fire pit and picnic table. Even pets are welcomed when staying in a tent cabin.
Big Sur Campground and Cabins offer clear, pristine drinking water from our own well.
They set out to achieve this by ensuring that every day, guests were provided with a clean, quiet and friendly place to bring the family and create memories!
Perfect Glamping.

Came across this blogpost by Jean B in SC – Picture Camping and email alert sent to me from Amazon.com, with an interesting posting on new book which would be a good read for a glamper.
Let’s Get Primitive: The Urban Girl’s Guide to Camping by Heather Menicucci is a book that springs to mind when I think of Glamping.
Picture Camping reviews “It is most definitely NOT written for the family camper, but many– even most– of the author’s ideas are still useful even with children involved in the camping experience.
This is not a book to let your children leaf through– as I said, it was not written with kids in mind, and the author mentions sex and drinking quite frankly.”
But it is a funny, practical guide to taking the “rough” out of roughing it-now thats glamping.
Worth a read I reckon.
Bring your binoculars! Shaded by live oaks, the seven spacious tents at this 1,700-acre nonprofit wildlife preserve overlook a watering hole popular with waterbuck, antelope, and gazelles. This is the Glamping resort of Fossil Rim, Texas.
Each Tent Cabin is custom designed and fitted with two twin beds, fresh linens, a private bath, ceiling fans, and central heat and air. Please bring a flashlight! You can relax on your own small patio, stroll over to the guest pavillion, gather at the bar or trade the day’s stories while observing the animals as they come to the nearby watering hole. Safari Camp overlooks one of Fossil Rim’s most popular wildlife watering holes where an ever changing variety of animals, from elegant sandhill cranes to families of waterbuck, can be viewed.
Karen W. Escalera reports that “The good news for our industry is that a wellness lifestyle is still sought after because it’s not seen as excessive, but a means to achieve personal well-being. It’s not a matter of “want”, but a matter of “need” to destress and be a better, healthier you in difficult times.
Figures provided by SpaFinder to Travel Weekly are staggering – the most searched terms on their site since January are: “massage” up roughly by 1900%; “getaways” up more than 400%; “spa retreats” up 235%; “local spa” up roughly 600%; and “tranquility” up 75%.
With that being said, searches for “luxury spa” and “luxury spa resorts” were down, which indicates that spa-ing is becoming more synonymous with essential stress reduction and relaxation, than a luxury pursuit.”
Check out the Old for New Vocab list.
Hopefully people will look to nature and it’s offering to bring about the best destresser there is…Try Glamping.
