What if starting an outdoor hospitality business didn't require land, cabins, permits, or a six-figure investment? In this episode, Sarah Riley speaks with Adam Odgaard from Isabella Camping about the Camp-Let tent trailer… a clever Danish invention that has been popular across Europe for decades but is only now arriving in the United States. We explore how this lightweight trailer (just 595 lbs) unfolds into a surprisingly spacious camping setup with sleeping cabins and living space, and why it's attracting attention as a new business opportunity in the outdoor hospitality industry. They discuss: The fascinating 70-year history of Isabella, a family business founded in Denmark How the Camp-Let trailer bridges the gap between camping and glamping Why its lightweight design works perfectly with electric vehicles The growing opportunity for mobile outdoor hospitality businesses How some operators in Europe already use these trailers as rental units on campsites A potential low-cost entry point into the outdoor hospitality industry Adam also shares example numbers showing how a Camp-Let setup could potentially reach break-even in around a year, opening up new possibilities for entrepreneurs who want to help people experience nature without needing to own land. If you're interested in glamping trends, innovative outdoor accommodation models, or creative ways to start a hospitality business, this episode will definitely get you thinking… and may even change the way you think about going camping. ________ Adam Odgaard - Isabella Camping - Camp-Let Trailer isabellacamping.com aod@isabella.net _________ Sarah Riley - Glamping, retreat events, and guest attraction Glamping Academy & Owners Club https://inspiredcourses.com Glamping marketing studio https://inspiredcollectiveltd.com/ __________ The Glamping Show Americas, Denver, Colorado https://www.glampingshow.us info@glampingshow.us Join us at the next show in Colorado!

A modern car can fail you in two very different ways: a broken part you can hear and feel, or a software and security issue you never see coming. We start with the real-world stuff first, running down this week's biggest automotive recalls, including the Ford F-150 transmission problem that can trigger an unexpected downshift, plus a long list spanning Kia, Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, Lexus, Tesla, Volkswagen, and more. We also revisit the Takata airbag mess and the simple step that still matters most: check your VIN and get the remedy done through the manufacturer.Then we lighten the mood with a listener-favorite game: “guess what it sold for.” We throw out bids on everything from a 1970 Dodge Coronet and an underappreciated 1984 Mustang convertible to a true jaw-dropper, a 1958 Chevrolet Impala convertible with a 409 that proves just how crazy classic car auction prices can get when rarity and originality line up.To close it out, we share Texas driving destinations with a Hill Country twist: glamping for grown-ups. Think luxury tents, futuristic pods, hot tubs, big decks, dark skies, and easy weekend access from Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and DFW. We also hit the cruise-in and events calendar and a quick headline on Stellantis partnering with Microsoft on AI and cybersecurity for connected vehicles.Subscribe for more weekly car talk, share this with your favorite gearhead, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Die Reisestatistik des Jahres 2025 sagt: Camping ist der Trend. Statista bescheinigte den Camping-Tourismus eine Wachstumsrate von 4,2%. Das ist mehr als bei Ferienwohnungen und -häusern und erheblich mehr als in klassischen Unterkünften. Lagerfeuer vor der Jurte – Foto: CampAdventure ITB-Talk: Camping 2026 Deshalb müssen wir reden. Das geschah während der ITB mit zwei Frauen vom Fach: Geplant – Getan. Neues erfahren und auch noch jede Menge Spaß gehabt. Könnt Ihr hören im Podcast. Die Menschen und die Agentur Karolin Turck – Foto: Camp Komm Karolin Turck und Ina Bohse sind nicht nur erfahrene Camperinnen, sie haben 2020 auch den Trend erkannt und mit „Camp Komm“ ihre eigene PR-Agentur aufgemacht. Seitdem betreuen sie Kunden aus diesem Bereich. Daraus wurde im Lauf von ziemlich genau 6 Jahren die Agentur für naturnahes Reisen. Naturnahes Reisen war noch nie so beliebt und vielfältig wie jetzt. Unsere Mission: Wir begeistern und inspirieren Menschen für all die kreativen Ideen und Angebote, die es auf dem Markt gibt. Reden und jemanden fragen, der sich mit Sowas auskennt, erschien mir eine tragfähige Ausgangslage zu sein. Ina Bohse – Foto: Camp Komm Die inhaltlichen „Gegensätze“ Am besten lässt sich konstruktiv reden, wenn man unterschiedlicher Meinung ist und trotzdem nicht ahnungslos. Ich bin eher Camping-Skeptiker mit geringer Erfahrung. Immerhin schaue ich zurück auf einmal 4 Wochen Portugal mit Zelt (vor rund 40 Jahren) und einen USA-Trip mit einem Riesen-Wohnmobil vor gut 15 Jahren. Mit dem RV an der Pazifik-Küste bei Monterey (California) – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Vom Hocker gerissen hats mich nicht und der Wohnmobil Roadtrip war wahnsinnig teuer, auch wenn er (ich gebe es zu) unterm Strich wunderschön war. Relaxen nach 600 Tageskilometern im 6 Tonner Campmobil – Foto: ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Boom vs. Erfahrung Das Motto war klar: Boom gegen eigene unterschiedliche Erfahrungen und meine Aufforderung an Ina und Karolin auch. Aufgabe: Überzeugt mich von Camping heute… Karo unterwegs in Namibia – Foto: Camp Komm Ina mit dem Zelt im Joshua Tree National Park (California) – Foto: Camp Komm Unsere Themen Wie sieht Camping heute aus und sind die Leute auch anders drauf? Der Wandel des Camping und die „Outdoor-Erfahrung“ zwischen Dauercampern (ja, wir haben auch über die fast schon historische RTL-Serie geredet), Naturerlebnis bis zum Glamping. Von der Vielfalt des Camping: Stellplätze für den Camper ab 10 Euro bis zur Luxus-Jurte im Mǿns Klint Resort in Dänemark, wo die Nacht auch bis zu 400 Euro kosten kann. Ist Camping immer noch dem „Billig“-Image? Glamping vom Feinsten: Mons Klint Resort – Foto: Mons Klint Resort Erfahrung mit Naturnähe vom „Allemans Rätten“ (dem schwedischen Jedermannsrecht) über “Wildwood Camping” in Deutschland bis zur Erfahrung in amerikanischen Nationalparks. Sowohl Karo als auch Ina sind stolze Besitzerinnen von T4 oder T5 – VW Bussen. Wir reden über den legendären Camper und klären auch, was daran toll und was weniger gut ist. Karo mit Bulli in Norwegen – Foto: Camp Komm Camper mit Aussicht: Ina in ihrer Wahlheimat Mallorca – Foto: Camp Komm Unterwegs sein Natürlich kommen auch Reiseziele nicht zu kurz, von Nordamerika über Spanien, Frankreich, Dänemark, Norwegen, Schweden bis zu Camping-Specials in Deutschland ist alles Thema. Van-Life und die digitalen Nomaden. Wie steht es um die Wahrheit der Dauerreisenden im Camper Van? Die Begeisterung zwischen Mallorca und Skandinavien und warum Ina, die inzwischen auf Mallorca wohnt, ihre Lieblingsinsel jedes Jahr im Juli und August verlässt, um in Dänemark zu campen. Mein “Go West”- Roadtrip “mit allen Wettern” Drei Wochen unterwegs mit dem Camper. Rund 3.500 Kilometer unterwegs mit einem 6-Tonner. Route: California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, California.

Öko bedeutet heute oft auch Elektromobilität. Gibt es eigentlich inzwischen auch schon E-Camper Vans, wie z.B. umgebaute Versionen des VW-ID Buzz? Funktioniert das auch? Wo ordnet man die Camping-Influencer ein und wieviel „Wahrheit“ transportieren sie tatsächlich? Wir haben auch über die Kunden von Camp Komm geredet und die Palette ist wirklich groß. Sie reicht von Camp Adventure, über Wildwood-Plätze bis zum Glamping-Resort auf der dänischen Insel Mǿn oder dem naturnahen „Hearts-Hotel“ im Harz Gesamtgefühle Karo und Ina: Immer einen guten Tipp parat. – Foto: Camp Komm Gefühlsfragen wurden zum Thema: Muss man als Camper ständig planen, ständig nervig ein- und auspacken und damit quasi permanent gut organisiert sein? Hauptfrage am Ende: Muss man für Camping geboren sein oder lässt sich das lernen? – Besteht da bei mir noch Hoffnung?

Welcome to the Outdoor Adventure Series podcast. In this special episode, Howard Fox sits down with John Burrill, a new full-time resident whose family has a long-time history in the Newberry Springs area, nestled in the heart of the Mojave Desert.

What does the future of glamping and unique hospitality really look like? In this episode, Sarah Riley speaks with Nathan Mayfield, President of ResNexus, about the major trends shaping the future of glamping, campgrounds, and unique stays… from AI and automation to guest expectations, direct bookings, data, and digital marketing. With years of experience and a broad view across the hospitality sector, Nathan shares the kinds of insights operators rarely get to see from inside just one business. This is a valuable conversation for anyone who wants to understand not just what is changing, but what actually matters. Inside this episode, we explore: How AI is beginning to influence hospitality across guest communication, marketing, pricing, reviews, fraud prevention, and demand forecasting Why social media is becoming the new search engine for travel inspiration What changing guest behaviour and shorter patience levels mean for operators Why direct booking tools, automation and email marketing matter more than ever The growing challenge of tech stack costs and how operators can avoid unnecessary complexity How to use technology to save time behind the scenes while protecting the human side of guest experience What smart businesses are doing now to prepare for the future of outdoor hospitality This episode is full of practical insight, big-picture thinking, and honest reflections on where the industry is headed next. If you run a glamping site, campground, holiday park, or unique short-stay business, or you simply want to understand where hospitality is heading… this is a conversation worth hearing. Because the future may be more automated… but the best hospitality will still feel deeply human. _________ Nathan Mayfield, President, ResNexus https://www.resnexus.us/ _________ Sarah Riley - Glamping, retreat events, and guest attraction Glamping Academy & Owners Club https://inspiredcourses.com Glamping marketing studio https://inspiredcollectiveltd.com/ __________ The Glamping Show Americas, Denver, Colorado https://www.glampingshow.us info@glampingshow.us Join us at the next show in Colorado!

In this episode, Sarah Riley talks with Chris Jeub of Monument Glamping… a familiar name in the industry and one of the early voices helping landowners turn beautiful properties into outdoor hospitality businesses. Chris shares the remarkable story of how a simple idea in 2019, of moving his bedroom into a hunting tent during a home remodel, unexpectedly became a fully-fledged glamping operation that now spans two properties and dozens of permitted units. Together, Sarah and Chris dive into the realities behind building a glamping business from scratch: navigating county regulations, dealing with neighbour complaints, expanding with container homes, and turning backyard tents into a six-figure enterprise. Chris also explains the powerful mindset shift that allowed him to reposition his offering, double his nightly rates, and transform Monument Glamping into an experience-led brand rooted in reconnection and simplicity. If you're curious about organic growth, overcoming regulatory hurdles, or how everyday landowners can create profitable, meaningful glamping stays, this episode is packed with honest insights, hard-earned lessons, and plenty of inspiration.

David talks about his inspiration for re-recording the song, which he wrote and released in 2016, working with his former Harlem roommate Mila Jam, and how he feels much more comfortable on camera now than he did in 2016. He also talks his stint on American Idol in 2008, his favorite memory from the show, being on the same season as fellow out singer David Archuleta, how it blew up his life and the Idol connection that helped get him back on track. He also discusses his forays into acting, playing a serial killer in the Tubi horror movie Glamping. Other topics include: what he's learned about himself since getting sober a few years ago, his favorite Idol memory, appearing in Naked Boys Singing, his relationship to his voice, his "really weird childhood" and how it felt to get naked and pay homage to D'Angelo's "How Does It Feel" in his musical video "Special."

Is the ultimate parenting flex actually… no gifts at all? Because according to The Cut, Millennial parents now fall into two dramatic camps:Camp Maximalist: “Here’s every toy that's ever been produced.”Camp Minimalist: “Your present is… presence.” Meanwhile, gentle parenting has officially been cancelled. After a viral post dragged the whole “boundary-less vibes only” approach, we’re gathered here today to mount a defence before it’s declared emotionally supportive manslaughter. And in other critical news, the internet is deep into an investigation of the gossip going on about the Millennial mum group — Ashley Tisdale, Mandy Moore, and Hilary Duff — basically the Avengers of wholesome parenting. What are they hiding? PTA secrets? Matching snack schedules? We will, of course, be looking into it with the seriousness it deserves… which is none. Our Recommendations:

How do you turn a rustic flower farm into the Northeast's most enchanting glamping experience?On this episode, I step into the heart of the Vermont woods to chat with the incredible Melissa Hessney Masters, the creative force behind Tangle Bloom. This conversation is all about transformation: how Melissa took a rustic flower farm and her deeply imaginative spirit and turned it into one of the most sought-after glamping retreats in the entire Northeast.Melissa walks us through her journey, sharing how a tiny, 100-square-foot cabin became a genuine sanctuary for city dwellers craving nature and slow living. We dig into the details of her success, from the thoughtful touches—think fresh-cut wildflower bouquets and the magic of a wood-fired hot tub—that set her experience apart, to the practical realities of managing guest expectations in an off-grid environment. If you've ever wondered what it takes to cultivate an authentic, successful hospitality business, Melissa's story of building Tangle Bloom is a must-listen. You're going to leave this episode inspired to completely reimagine what true hospitality looks like.Things we discussed in this episode:How Melissa turned a 100 sq. ft. cabin on her Vermont flower farm into a popular glamping stay.The shift from personal use to rental after friends encouraged her.Off-grid guest perks like wildflower bouquets, a wood-fired hot tub, and thoughtful hospitality.Using Airbnb and Hipcamp to manage bookings and diversify income.Adding outdoor showers, kitchens, and composting toilets for guest comfort.Attracting mostly urban, younger couples who book two-night stays.Adjusting pricing for weekends vs. weekdays and navigating seasonal demand.Balancing guest expectations while keeping listings accurate.Growing community through social media, creators, and local outreach.Future plans for new projects and gathering ongoing guest feedback.Get in touch with Melissa:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tanglebloom/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tanglebloomflowers/Website - https://tanglebloom.com/#SmartStayShow #realestate #realestateinvestor #realestateagent #RealEstateInvesting #ShortTermRentals #Glamping #TinyCabin #Vermont #FlowerFarm #AirbnbHost #OffGridLiving #SustainableTourism #SlowLiving #SmartStay #NatureRetreatFollow Us!Join Jason Muth of Prideaway Stays and Straightforward Short-Term Rentals and Real Estate Attorney / Broker Rory Gill for the first episode of SmartStay Show!Following and subscribing to SmartStay Show not only ensures that you'll get instant updates whenever we release a new episode, but it also helps us reach more people who could benefit from the valuable content that we provide.SmartStay Show Website and on Instagram and YouTubePrideaway Stays Website and on Facebook and LinkedInStraightforward Short-Term Rentals Website and on InstagramAttorney Rory Gill on LinkedInJason Muth on LinkedIn
What does it take to build a beautiful, thriving glamping brand from scratch, with no hospitality background, limited funds, but a whole lot of creativity? It takes guts to dream big with ambition but no experience, and we can all learn a lot from those who do it. In this episode, we sit down with Eamon Heggarty, the founder of Coorie Retreats, to unpack the inspiring story behind one of the UK's most talked-about boutique retreat brands. From resourceful financing and clever design choices to mastering social media storytelling, Eamon shares the realities of building a dream business from the ground up. We also explore Coorie's bold next chapter, with new sites planned in Edinburgh, Donegal, and the UAE, and how innovation (including their now-famous salt floating tubs) keeps the brand ahead of the curve. Whether you're a retreat owner, creative entrepreneur, or someone dreaming of escaping the 9–5 for a business in nature, this conversation will leave you inspired and full of ideas for what's possible when passion meets purpose. In this chat with Sarah Riley, Eamon shares: How to launch a glamping business with little experience or capital Creative ways to finance and design on a budget Why authentic storytelling drives bookings better than ads The inspiration (and science!) behind salt floating tubs How to expand internationally while staying true to your brand More Information Sarah Riley - Glamping, retreats, events, and guest attraction Courses.

For a long time, there's been this mostly unspoken rule that “real” outdoor experiences have to be rugged. You've got to rough it, hike ten miles in the rain, sleep on the ground and eat beans from a can — or else it somehow doesn't count. Luckily, that's changing. More and more people are discovering that you don't have to give up comfort to connect with the outdoors. Here in Pennsylvania – especially in state parks - that change has been evident. Instead of only offering tent sites, state parks have cottages, cabins, yurts and other accommodations. Many offer amenities like stoves, refrigerators, microwaves, tables and chairs.No longer are you forced to pack up everything you own for a weekend in the woods. You can book a comfortable accommodation AND still be in nature. However, these upgraded accommodations still have rubbed people the wrong way. It isn't “real' camping. What does that even mean anyway? Real camping? Does it mean sleeping on the ground. Waking up with a sore back and condensation in the tent. Cold and miserable. No thanks. It's that sort of attitude that I despise in the outdoors. You're not a real hiker unless. You're not a real hunter unless. You're not really camping unless. It's such a pointless and divisive way of thinking. Thankfully, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources does not think that way. They are more considered with getting people outdoors and meeting them where they are in their outdoor recreation journey. As opposed to bending them to their will.That's why I was so excited when they announced in 2025 that they were partnering with Timberline Glamping Company to bring glamping to seven Pennsylvania state parks in 2026. The public would have the chance to reserve one of the 54 fully outfitted sites —no gear needed. Glamping will be available in Pymatuning, Hills Creek, Promised Land, Hickory Run, French Creek, Codorus and Laurel Hill State Parks. Timberline will provide the beds, heat, air conditioning, coffee maker, linens, pillows and comfortable accommodations. All you have to bring is an open mind and a sense of adventure. These wonderful glamping spots are creating space for everyone to experience the magic of nature in their own way. By making the outdoors accessible for everyone- from people who don't own camping gear to those physically unable to sleep in a tent - glamping is opening doors, breaking down barriers and reimagining what it means to “get outside.” Because nature belongs to all of us — whether you're sleeping under the stars or under a heated canopy.On this episode I speak with Nathan and Rebeka Self, founders of Timberline Glamping Company, and Kaitlyn Gundersen-Thorpe, manager of the French Creek State Park Complex.
