According to the fifth annual North American Camping Report, as camping itself becomes more popular, glamping has also continued to grow in popularity. The report states, “The number of new camping households in the United States—those that camp at least once a year—grew by 1.4 million in 2018, reaching a new high of 78.8 million households. Since 2014, the number of households that camp three or more times a year has dramatically risen 72%.”
In the report, those surveyed show that the demographics are undergoing a shift in the diversity of those who are enjoying camping/glamping. Demographically, while Millennials accounted for 56% of new campers and Gen-X’ers made up 25% of new campers in the most recent North American Camping Report, half of Millennials and nearly 50% of Gen-X campers are also interested in glamping, so IEC and Eco-Camps should see more interest in their resorts overall but should also enjoy a younger crowd for years
