Now there is a better, dare we say more glamorous option, a way to unplug and connect with friends and family without sacrificing modern comforts. Go glamping! Glamping, or glamorous camping, combines the good parts of camping with many of the comforts of home, and North Georgia offers several glamping options.
Georgia Glamping Company Rebeka and Nathan Self founded the Georgia Glamping Company four years ago to offer campers a comfortable outdoor experience. Rebeka grew up loving traditional
camping trips with her family, whereas Nathan has traveled internationally for work and prefers the comforts of a nice hotel. The two needed a way to balance their need for the experience of being out in nature without sacrificing comfort and style. Rebeka says, “We felt that if our family needed this compromise, then there had to be others feeling the same way.” After a little brainstorming and daydreaming, the Self family decided to make glamping an experience in North Georgia that brings the comforts of home into the great outdoors. uuu
