is this kind of like how all the ladies now "do half marathons" by walking 11 of those miles? i mean, yeah, you "did" it, you were physically there.

camping is camping. staying in a hotel with faux log walls and a fridge that plugs in isn't "camping."

Because not all of us want to sleep in a tent. I would sleep in a cabin, the more luxurious the better. My boys can sleep outside in a tent if they want, build a campfire, etc.

Then it’s really not “camping.” It is going to a mountain retreat.
The term “glamping” is such a silly word. You either camp, or you don’t. A mountain cabin (especially a luxurious one) does not equate to any kind of camping.

Pretty sure OP didn't invent the word glamping. I'm sorry you don't like that word, but your rant doesn't really add anything to this thread.

It may be a silly word but it is an English word used to describe the thing OP is seeking. You don't have to like or go "glamping" but she didn't ask if it counted as camping, she asked where she could find it in the area.

How about a lodge or cabin in Shenandoah NP? There are cabins & lodge rooms at Big Meadows, a lodge at Skyland, and I think cabins at Lewis Mountain.

Big meadows and sky land have nice views, but are pretty dated IMO.

PP. I'm a camper. And you can get off your high horse - it helps no one and makes you look like an ass.

A Yurt equals glamping and this place is great! (No, it's not my house. I just really like the Blue Green Resort)
