Raves and Reviews
“The Howards’ newest guide is perfect for everyone who loves the outdoors—not just physically fit 20-somethings, but also families, pet owners, disabled folks, and those of us who just hate sleeping on the ground.” —Sadie Dingfelder, feature writer at Washington Post
“Comfortably Wild finally gives us a comprehensive view into the vast world of glamping. This book is as relevant and delightful for industry experts as it is for first-time glampers.” —Ruben Martinez, cofounder of Glamping Hub and American Glamping Association
“I love that this book isn’t just about beautiful glamping properties, it’s also about the experiences that make our travels resonate and the incredible people that bring them to fruition. Helpful and inspiring, Comfortably Wild is the guide that every North American traveler needs." —Samantha Brown, Emmy Award–winning host of Places to Love
“I have always believed that if you understand and appreciate the process, that’s the only time you can value the product. And that’s exactly what Anne and Mike have done here in addressing the brave new world of glamping. For those who are both adverse to as well as unable to pitch a tent—let alone survive in one—but still want to enjoy the wonders of life outdoors, this book is for you." —Peter Greenberg, travel editor at CBS News
"The word "glamping" has been misinterpreted by many...Yes, glamping suggests comfortable accommodations. But the other elements, according to the Howards, include creative structures, access to nature, environmentally sustainable experiences, and trips so engaging as to be unforgettable. The range of sites recommended make this guidebook especially attractive." —Judges of the Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Competition. Comfortably Wild was awarded the bronze for Best Guidebooks of 2020"
