If you’ve ever wanted to go camping but didn’t want to sleep on the ground, then you might want to check out Timberline Glamping Company. The company, which has three locations in Georgia, has opened up a new location in Hillsborough River State Park. The company offers hiking, biking, picnicking and kayaking class II rapids, just a short drive away from downtown Tampa.

What is glamping?

Glamping is a combination of the words “glamorous” and “camping” and refers to a style of camping with amenities and resort-style services not usually associated with “traditional” camping. Timberline Glamping Company, formally Georgia Glamping Company, was founded in 2018 when Nathan and Rebeka Self recognized the need in their own young family to unplug and comfortably spend more time in the great outdoors.
