When it comes to glamping resorts in Michigan, there is one that stands out: The Fields. Based in South Haven, The Fields is a luxury glamping operation of 19 safari tents, catering to adults. Beyond the glamping accommodations, it offers spa services and dining prepared by an onsite chef. We were able to meet its founder, Irene, at the Glamping Show last year, where she was a keynote speaker. She has been in operation for about five years, is debt free, and only operating six months out of the year!
Another glamping resort, Off Map Glamping, is also located in South Haven and provides safari tent accommodations. They are a little more rustic compared to The Fields in that their tents do not have electricity, but they stay true to glamping with spacious tents, real beds, and private ensuite bathrooms. Like the Fields, Off Map Glamping is also seasonal.
In business, it's always advisable to keep an eye on what your competition is doing. Fortunately, later this summer we will be staying at both The Fields and Off Map Glamping. Each year, we get away for our wedding anniversary, and so far it's always been in Michigan. This year, for our five-year anniversary, we're staying two nights at each of these resorts and we are excited to learn how they continue to be successful. But don't worry - you don't have to keep it secret. We're not spying... we were invited! One of the great things about the glamping industry is that those in it are so willing to help each other. We cannot wait to share our experience Michiglamping!
