If I was to tell you that one of the most special girls trips you can ever have is a camping trip, you’d probably shudder at the thought of sleeping under trees, not having your favorite creature comforts like Netflix, your memory foam pillow and your super comfortable, plush couch. Well the good news is, you don’t have to forgo all things girly and all things comfortable in order to have a camping trip. In fact, you can combine all that’s good about camping (smores, campfires, sleeping under the stars) with all the luxurious and glamorous things like plated food, fairy lights, and feeling like you’re at Coachella. It all about elevating everything that would constitute as normal camping and taking it to the next level. Next time you decide to have a weekend away with the girls, consider finding a nice place to perch up and spend some quality time with your besties. Here are a few ideas.
Food
Instead of eating standard camp food, there’s a way you can elevate your eating experience while you’re glamping. Get some really great finger food platters from your favorite restaurants (since you’re glamping, it would be easier to refrigerate and microwave them), prepare cocktails in advance and keep them in a cooler. Bring wine glasses and beautiful plates. It will make you feel like you’re having a unique 5-star restaurant experience!
Decor
A boring dreary campsite can be turned into a Pinterest-worthy setting with the right touches and easy decor choices. First, start with a beautiful outdoor rug, something really eye-catching. Forget tired camp chairs, and opt for a foldable beach lounger. Add huge floor cushions if that’s more your taste. Bring the glampsite to life with fairy lights, flowers and drapes, and just like that, you’ve got a place your friends will swoon over.
An RV
You don’t have to go camping in a tent if you don’t want to. You can get an RV so that you end up with an indoor/outdoor experience. An RV gives you a more comfortable place to sleep, it’s warm and cozy and you can actually drive around and explore. It doesn’t have to be a huge stress either. With the right maintenance plan and insurance in place, you won’t have to worry about accidents or breakdowns. You can find out about extended warranties at Good Sam before you head out to your glamping trip.
For a perfect experience, there are also some special features you need to consider for your RV. The most important one is actually… a fridge!A fridge for your RV or campervan, is actually one best upgrade you could do. While this will obviously allow you to keep your fresh food longer, this will also enable you to have a cold bottle of Champagne always ready to be uncorked at all the amazing place you will visit!
A Projector Screen on An RV
If you really feel bad about not having your big screen TV to watch This Is Us on, don’t worry, there’s a way around it. Grab a projector screen and perch it on the side of your RV. Now when you and your friends watch movies with your outdoor theater without breaking a sweat!
Spending time in the great outdoors or in a nice quiet environment is a wonderful way for you and your girlfriends to bond, and to just recharge and get away from the busy schedules, packed lunches and everything else that comes with the mom life. Look at glamping as a comfortable camping experience that doesn’t require you to go without the things that make you enjoy your life.
Camping can actually be very girly if you know how to do it right. It doesn’t have to be about insect bites and running into animals, it can be memorable and very chic!
