Brooklyn company to open ‘glamping’ site in East Hampton

Terra Glamping plans to bring its first luxury camping site to Cedar Point County Park in East Hampton by Memorial Day, Newsday reported. The so-called event rental company, which is based in Brooklyn, has run similar seasonal hotels in the Catskills and the Rockaways. Terra Glamping’s East End site will have 30 safari-style tents looking out over Gardiners Bay to Shelter Island and Sag Harbor. Each tent has a queen-size, memory-foam mattress and down bedding along with a six-foot-wide wooden platform at its entrance, as noted by Forbes and other outlets in stories about the “glamping” phenomenon. Amenities include lounge tents holding sofas, books and board games; a dining tent; bathrooms; a grilling area; a fire pit; and hammocks. Stays at Terra Glamping’s Hamptons locale begin on May 24 and are available through the end of October. [Newsday]
