Not traveling for the past 2 years has been tough. It seems we were just getting into the swing of navigating our time share resort catalog… culling the ordinary and finding some fabulous spots… and then Covid slammed the door. While I’d be up for getting back on the road, my husband is still hesitant so we’re sticking close to home for now. I’ve been slowly researching some New England escapes my spouse might be comfortable with and the other day I came across this:
.

.
Let me state for the record… unequivocally and without a doubt… I am not a camper. I have absolutely zero pioneering spirit and require hot and cold running Egyptian cotton sheets.
.

.
While I love nature, the outdoors and hiking during the day, ( before my knee injury, damn it ) I prefer to sleep in air conditioned comfort on a king sized pillow top not sweltering in a 12×6 wagon with mosquitoes large enough to carry you away.
.

.
Trust me, it’s not. And I wouldn’t.
.

.
The words magical wagon and camp grounds are not used in the same sentence, not in my world.
And when I heard they rent for $1,500 a night? Yeeha! That’s a hard pass.

For $1,500 a night I’d let someone sleep in the man cave/barn.

I was getting all excited to come over there and stay in a wagon until you said $1500. That’s just ridiculous, nay, ludicrous.

They consider it “glamping”. It’s a wagon, how glamp can it be?

$1500 a night!! You could stay in a high class resort with room service, mini bar and jacuzzi on a balcony for that price.

Pretending money is no issue…pretending HARD, mind you…I think it would be a fun and unique getaway!

I slept in a train car Inn once. Literally made from old train cars. It really didn’t feel romantic or special. Maybe it would have if we had paid $1500 but I doubt it.

Just find an “antique” store in the area you want to travel, and make that the focal point of the trip. Result: Husband on board!
