Outdoor Hospitality Podcast: Glamping, STR, Resorts, Unique Stays, RV Parks, RV Resorts & Campgrounds

Today's guests are Mike and Anne Howard of HoneyTrek fame. They've been on the "World's Longest Honeymoon" since January 2012 - that's over 4,000 days!

As part of their trip, they've stayed at more than 80 glamping sites across North America, and in 2019 they published "Comfortably Wild", an award-winning guidebook of the best glamping sites on the continent.

We speak to them about the common themes across the best glamping sites; little tips and tricks to improve the guest experience; and what they would do if they were to open their own glamping site.
