Camping is well and good in theory, but in practice, not so much. If you still want to soak in the scenery—and not have to worry about wild animals lurking outside of your tent—give glamping a try. For the uninitiated, the five-star experience (a portmanteau of the words "glamorous" and "camping") is a luxurious form of camping in which participants indulge in hours of effortless relaxation, complete with resort-caliber amenities like elaborately constructed teepees, plush mattresses, and gourmet meals.
