Glamping in Arizona
It felt like an episode of The Simple Life. Remember Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie trading in their chic city girl lives to try their hands at farm living? Well, we may not be heiresses but as two Canadian girls, Shayna and I sure did love trading in our winter coats for a chance to experience a little time on the farm this spring in Arizona.
Glamping on Schnepf Farms is definitely the right way to experience this new travel trend. Each trailer is newly renovated and uniquely decorated. There is a kitchen with a microwave and refrigerator plus a bathroom with toilet and shower. To add to all the comfort of home, you can cozy up in a queen-sized bed with plush duvet comforters, terrycloth robes, wifi and a large flat-screen tv that streams Netflix! Now, this is MY kind of camping.
I loved my stay at the 1969 Airstream International. Average nightly rates are around $150 and include outdoor living space and a shared bbq. Enjoy the sunset over the farm in the evenings with the mountains visible in the distance. If you’re interested in viewing one of the other 8 trailers, then have a peek at the photos of each interior and exterior on their booking website. There are even child and pet-friendly options! You also have an option to rent vintage bicycles to tour the property and take in the peach blossoms, The Meadow wedding venue and the secret forest. If you’re looking for even more luxury, then order “trailer service” and have a delicious homemade breakfast delivered to your door in the morning! Like seriously, doesn’t this sound like so much fun?!

Stop by the bakery to enjoy their delicious baked goods, like peach cinnamon rolls and pies.

Their coffee shop and restaurant is a MUST to visit, make sure to indulge in the charcuterie board for lunch and a cupcake for dessert.

This looks super fun! I have never heard about glamping until now and I love everything about it. The wifi, the breakfast at your door, the cute little trailers you can sleep in. That is my kind of camping!
And you are right, there are so many places to take cute pictures for the gram! Like the one you are standing in the door way of the trailer with your overalls, SUPER CUTE!
Not to mention how affordable it is! When you said the price of the trailer was only $150 I was a little surprised. I was expecting it to much more! Knowing that its only $150 makes me want to go even more to check it out and have a good time!
