Interesting in seeing who has any experience with glamping and development of camp sites.

What were some of biggest takeaways and lessons learned?

Thank you

Cheers.

@Samuel Garrett We've been in development for awhile on a project near the Grand Canyon! Since we're in development, can't really comment on the operations yet but can try to give some lessons learned on the land development side as we were essentially totally new to it all!

Our biggest takeaway has been that land development is not easy. You certainly need to be very diligent and take it easy on yourself as it's a process.

I would also definitely recommend periodically updating financial projections as you progress and get more information which will happen. Additional requirements will come up and you don't want to be surprised when they increase your development costs and lower your projected ROI.

Hope that's helpful to anyone reading this!
