You know that feeling on Friday at 5pm when you just want to hit the road and leave it all behind? Everyone deserves to treat themselves every once in a while, and we found the perfect place in Northern California where you can do it! Camping isn’t for everyone, but glamping, on the other hand, definitely is! It’s the trendy name for “glamorous camping,” and you will feel totally pampered and well rested after a retreat to the New Mendocino Campground.
The fancy campground lets guests rent out their tent cabins, which they call “safari tents.” These cozy abodes have fabric walls and are housed on wooden platforms, giving you that perfect balance of nature and comfort.
