2 nights at The Bougainvillea Glamping Tent

This was a great experience for my boyfriend and I. As a nurse i prioritize peace and self care off the clock.....this property was definitely peaceful in a surrounding of nature that influences self care. Dawns land was full of greenery, she organized rental spaces to prioritize privacy. Our rental space was clean and organized. Easily to become a romantic setting for any couple. Bathroom was very clean and cute! Dawn herself was a welcoming and down to earth personality, which is refreshing. So detailed with around the area activities and food. We did not get to use the hot tub (we forgot about it) but I can garentee that would've been just as impressive. I plan to rent again! Thanks Dawn!!!!♡

Weekend Trip to The Bougainvillea Glamping Tent

Dawn and her family have created an oasis that will rejuvenate and renew your spirit. The gardens are radiant, the tent and restroom was tastefully decorated and all the amenities of a hotel are available - the towels were so soft and the bed was so comfortable! Best part is the hospitality offered by the host who made you feel very welcomed. I will be coming back as my get away retreat.

The best glamping near Clearwater with hot tubs guide

When to go

Clearwater is a year-round destination, with important differences between seasons. Winter is great for tent camping experiences thanks to cooler weather and less humidity, but this time of year is also more crowded, as snowbirds head to town from the Northeast and Canada to escape the cold. Meanwhile, summers in the Tampa Bay area can be hot, humid, rainy, and buggy—seek a campground with a swimming pool, a log cabin with air-conditioning, or an RV resort with cool communal clubhouses.Fortunately for RV campers, Clearwater has many RV parks with 50-amp full hookups, restrooms, wifi, and dump stations.
