Costanoa is just outside San Francisco on California's Pacific coast. You can enjoy the luxury of the lodge or "tough it out" in one of the resorts tent villages. You get the feeling of the outdoors without having to lug around all your camping equipment. It can be a great romantic getaway or an adventure for the whole family to enjoy.

Longitude 131 in Australia is a grownups getaway. It is located in the Ulura-Kata Tjuta National Park and offers everything from private views of the sunrise and sunset to gourmet meals. The tents include remote controls for the blinds, air-conditioning and amazing decor. A stay will include tours and meals, but will run around $3000 for a two night adventure.

Paws Up in Montana is part western adventure and part luxury retreat. The tents are more like luxury suites - with fine linens, electricity and comfortable bedding. The River Camp also includes a deck, housekeeping and even a personal butler. Who says camping can't be a relaxing experience? The rates include three meals a day but will cost around $600 per day for a family of five.

If you want to go camping but don't want the extreme experience of hiking to your destination with your food and shelter on your back then you might want to consider a luxury camping experience. You will be able to enjoy the outdoors but you will also enjoy the luxury accommodations and the food. Luxury camping is a great compromise between adventure and comfort.
