在安大略省朗波特生態冒險樂園大放異彩

“Glamping” is a mash-up of the words “glamour” and “camping” and after staying in a wilderness suite at Long Point Eco-Adventures, two hours from Toronto Ontario on the shores of Lake Erie in 諾福克郡，豪華露營是我當然可以習慣於再次做的事情。

To be clear — I do not enjoy camping. I’ve tried camping twice, and it didn’t “take”. Sleeping on the ground is not for me.

My husband, on the other hand, is a hardcore camper. He doesn’t just “car camp” at a park campsite using the facilities provided. Nope. Hubby and his group of friends go into full survivor mode. They drive hours into the country, park their car, load all their belongings into kayaks/canoes, then paddle to a secluded island and dig a hole for use as a toilet.

As you can well imagine, we don’t see eye to eye when it comes to camping.

長點生態冒險荒野套房

Glamping — More Glamour / Less Camping

我知道當我們辦理入住手續時，我在做非常不同的事情 長點生態冒險 每個人都拿到了一個皮革檔案袋，其中包含有關該大院的信息，這是我們各個荒野套房的鑰匙。然後，高爾夫球車來接我的行李，工作人員把我送到了甜蜜的套房！

進入Suite 7之後，我就一個人呆了。興奮超載時間！

哇！

I have to mention this because I think it’s very thoughtful of the gang at Long Point Eco-Adventures, but the key to my suite was on a carabineer, and it also included a flashlight! No worries about losing my key or losing my way in the dark.

At first sight, the wilderness suites seem to be very close together. When in reality there is a lot of privacy built into the layout and landscaping. I kept my side window panels open the entire time I was there to allow the natural light to shine in — the tall grass plantings on either side of the unit and the overhanging dome blocked the view of any wandering eyes.

Long Point Eco-Adventures可以做什麼？

怎麼辦？

好吧，走出去，然後開始探索吧！

拉鍊線 （它們有八條線和兩個吊橋），釣魚/皮划艇/乘船遊覽，SUP，遠足和騎自行車 （75公里小徑） 冒險都在等著你。 Long Point生態冒險樂園位於聯合國教科文組織的北部 長點世界生物圈保護區 和 土耳其點省立公園.

沒有自行車或皮划艇？沒問題，可以在現場租用設備。

您可以根據自己的需要做任何事情，也可以做很多事，但是天一旦落山，不容錯過的一件事就是天文台觀光塔。

A professional facility with a state of the art 16-inch telescope able to see 100 million light-years away is on site and available every night (weather permitting) for viewing. With the help of staff, we were able to see Saturn and Mars. Even without the assistance of the telescope, from the vantage point of the treetop observation deck and your binoculars, you’re able to see the stars.

在篝火旁與我的旅行同伴聊天一段時間後，我退回到了加熱的帳篷，在溫暖舒適的床上睡覺，夢見星星和行星。

荒野W弱者的自白

Brrr…It’s 7:30 in the morning and I just took the fastest shower I’ve ever had in my entire life. I’m one of those girls who has a systematic bathing regime – an order of events that takes 15-20 minutes to complete.

即使在自來水流淌的情況下，在8°C的天氣下在戶外淋浴也不會讓人流連忘返！但是為了獲得完整的豪華體驗，我做到了，而且還不錯。請注意，我跳過了很多步驟，並且沒有洗頭髮，因為我沒有吹風機！

To be truthful, I did rush back inside, throw on the fluffy bathrobe that Long Point Eco-Adventures left for me in my suite and got back under the electric blanket on my bed. I’m still a wilderness wimp after all!

包含在您住宿中的早餐從7 AM到11 AM在Kambuka帳篷中提供，包括熱的，新鮮烹製的和豐盛的美食。菜單上有當地麵包，炒雞蛋，香腸，土豆，法式吐司以及各種冷熱穀物和飲料。一切都如預期的那樣，都是自助的。

荒野套房在任何時候都不允許進食，但不要擔心午餐；在屢獲殊榮的27英畝的Burning Kiln葡萄園，步行不遠或乘坐高爾夫球車即可在街對面享用晚餐。他們還提供野餐裝箱和葡萄酒。

在燒窯酒莊用餐

餐飲服務可在 窯燒酒廠 五月至九月。主廚斯科特·麥克雷（Scott McRae）指導下的美食 大衛餐廳 在附近的多佛港（Port Dover）非常出色，而且令人驚訝的是，所有這些都是在停放在露台外面的食物拖車中生產的。

Speaking of wine — since you are coming here to eat you might as well indulge yourself in some of their excellent award-winning wines with a tasting and a tour. （我最喜歡的是2014年甜葉雷司令）

我們在以下方面用餐：

阿蘭奇尼球
與馬里納拉和帕瑪森芝士一起

伊利湖鱸魚和Pickerel魚糕
與柑橘蒜泥蛋黃醬
– When in this part of Ontario, one just has to order the perch without question.

韓國炒花椰菜
純素食，無麩質，韓國粘醬和芝麻炒熟
– Amazing! It’s meant to be an entrée, but we shared this as an appetiser. Next time I eat here — I’m not sharing sorry! (wink).

8盎司牛里脊肉
配辣根蛋黃醬和當地的牛油
土豆泥的配菜
– Perfectly cooked, perfectly satisfying

巧克力無糖布朗尼
諾福克郡貝里·慕斯
香草冰淇淋配漿果蜜餞
– Perfect end to a perfect meal.

不僅是美食佳餚，而且能夠在屢獲殊榮的葡萄園的品嚐室裡用餐是葡萄酒愛好者的夢想。

他們還於週日在露台上播放現場音樂，為您帶來聆聽樂趣。

I think a return trip is in order…

I had a unique luxury glamping experience at Long Point Eco-Adventures, and although I didn’t get to try the zip line, explore the hiking trails or take a kayak out for a run, I still had a fabulous, memorable time.

Long Point Eco-Adventures offers various one-night and two-night pre-set packages, but you can also create a custom package with the help of the staff. Another cool accommodation option they have to offer is their brand-new wilderness pods (AKA “hobbit huts”). They are smoke-free with comfy deluxe beds (queen or 2 twins), heat, electricity, linens, and private decks but without the ensuite bath — located nearby are shared facilities.

Long Point Eco-Adventures的未來計劃是提供全方位服務的廚房，室內舒適站和室內會議中心。

我可能不是我丈夫那樣的鐵桿露營者，但是我現在認為自己是鐵桿豪華的一瞥！

Have you tried Glamping before? I’d love to hear about it so that I can put it on my list.
