One that has a potty, electric, running water and a kitchen.
@Keepitsimple don't forget the maid to turn down the bed and put a mint on your pillow. I finally figured what that mint was for. he says it gives him a tingle when I do my thing

@saragoodtimes I’m ok if I don’t have the maid, lol. I just need 4 walls and temperature control and the basic needs to be content 😁
@Keepitsimple I need all the frills and a 5 star restaurant nearby. maybe I'm spoiled but I'm me

Tent, i like to rough it.
@FreeSpirit1 only tent I like to see is the one on the bed in the *****hotel we're staying in when I wake in the morning
@saragoodtimes Those tents aren't leakproof!

I'm more of a hotel person these days, but a fancy cabin is all right, too. Used to camp in trailers, truck campers and a motor home with my parents years ago. RV wasn't the terminology in those days.

Used to be in a tent, but as getting down on the floor and standing up again is not as easy as it was I'd now prefer a small motor-caravan. (One small enough to be sensible "everyday" transport too.)

@ArishMell Yes me too old age and being disabled is hell

@Rhode57 Indeed. I have had both knees replaced and they won't bend past about 100º, so if I try kneeling up as if in prayer I topple forwards. Kneeling fully-folded is of course out of the question.

In the past I have enjoyed tent camping. Given decent gear and care it is possible to be reasonably comfortable even in bad weather, and though obviously wanting dry conditions it's even rather cosy to snuggle down into one's sleeping bag while the rain siles down!

A friend eventually replaced his lightweight tent with a small frame-tent, tall enough to stand in. It has clear plastic windows in tbe front, to which which he attached a name-sign printed in plastic, in cod-Gaelic -

My family camped all across the country while I wes growing up. We started with a 12 X 12 umbrella tent. (We often did one night stands in it. Eventually we graduated to a tent camper.

It depends a bit on the circumstances but I don't go camping very often now.

I have enjoyed many holidays in a tent, sometimes wild or semi-wild, sometime on commercial camp-sites.

At other times I have owned a modest motor-caravan compact enough to be everyday transport as well, and have made a removable bunk for my present vehicle, which is one of these small var / vans.

My late wife used to define camping as "the motel is out of hot water". That pretty much sums up my attitude too. Did rustic as a child with no indoor plumbing or electricity.

I used to do motorcycle camping. I can ride along way on a motorcycle but now I prefer a hot shower and a warm bed at the end of the day.

In my living room with air conditioning in summer, in the back room in front of the wood-burning stove in winter.

I never got into camping.
My boyfriend and I are avid hikers, but we're day hikers, and don't like to carry much.
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
I used to do a lot of tent camping but now it’s exclusively RV.
dancingtongue · 80-89, M
My late wife always said "motel that has run out of hot water, if I must".
