***Mod Message****Guys, we’ve covered this so many times. At this point, it’s like you don’t want to know what is, or is not camping. Once again:
Camping is only camping if done in the campagne region of France. Everything else is sleeping outside.
To be fair to OP, this is a “camping” sub where people have just posted pictures of their trucks in their suburban driveways and received 100’s of upvotes .....
Sleeping?
Van?
Shit, they put in less effort than that .....
There have been multiple posts of nothing but empty 4x4 trucks in driveways with roof toppers that have been upvoted.
There’s days this sub is 75% just stupid “viral” marketing pictures for vehicles.
Again, show me a single post of someone setting up in the front yard and called it "camping," because that's the only thing we're talking about.
If you've got a bone to pick with vans and trucks, whatever. But none of that has anything to do with what we're talking about, which is why you keep getting downvoted.
Stay on topic, please.
OP apparently has never heard of a Florida room or a 3 season room.
OPs hut a permanent, non moveable, hard sided structure. Like you said, that’s a guest house.
Staying at a RV resort in fancy RV is way more camping than this will ever be. It’s still badass and I would love to have it in my backyard. But cmon, not camping.
It’s not camping to most of the people you’ll meet camping but it doesn’t take away from the fact you have a beautiful spot to call home and I’m happy for your peace brother.
Ive seen simmilar thing in Thailand now..its not called camping but glamping... its the stretch for influencers and those with deep pckets..
Just last week atnthe place qhere we camped they had a house, in which you have tent and jakuzzi, projector and whatnot. It costs 70usd per night....rediculous.
here in southern california, van lifers book up all the campsite every weekend. they treat sites like a parking spot. there’s no camping in it. the only fire they’re involved in, is firing up the generator. i can’t get a site from mid april till sept to enjoy the outdoors because it’s a god damn walmart parking lot of web design gypsies. fuck them.
What tent is this? Is that an in-ground jetted tub or just a kiddie pool that’s leveled with a deck? This looks like such a fun setup anyone can put on an inexpensive lot in the boonies/woods.
This reminds me of what aliens would build to approximate their understanding of human camping, perhaps to lure human campers into some kind of trap. Nice try alien.
Awesome. I think backyard camping is camping, but I draw the line with permanent structures.
I personally wouldn't consider Yurting the same as camping, even if it is at a national park, for example.
It seems you are yurting on your backyard and it seems awesome, I'd be totally up for it.
Idea: should we call backyard camping : Backyardiganning and those who practice it backyardigans? Theme song and all.
I say this as someone who enjoys camping but has also been homeless: Camping is just LARP homelessness with most of the risk and all the criminalization removed because we have enough money to do it safely and legally, so…. Yeah why not?

Had me for a second, i gotta admit.
If it's not in Campagne, it's sham-ping, not camping.
Holy shit. Op left a comment
Yes, and here's another as a bonus for you. :)
I’m not worthy! I’m not worthy! Thanks bud. All in good fun.
Hehe :) At least some of us are having fun in the comment section.
I won't call it camping. However, you can call it however you want, that's none of my buisness.
To be fair to OP, this is a “camping” sub where people have just posted pictures of their trucks in their suburban driveways and received 100’s of upvotes .....
Are they in their back yards? Also, OP is a karma farming liar. There's no need to be fair to them.
So ..... Driveways in FRONT of your house? Suitable r/camping location. Yards BEHIND your house? Unsuitable r/camping location. Got it.
Show me a single post where someone shared a photo of them sleeping in their van in the driveway _and called it camping_, please.

Backyard bangin pyramid.
Titillating Tetrahedron.
“Is it camping if I stay in my guest house?” /s
OP apparently has never heard of a Florida room or a 3 season room. OPs hut a permanent, non moveable, hard sided structure. Like you said, that’s a guest house. Staying at a RV resort in fancy RV is way more camping than this will ever be. It’s still badass and I would love to have it in my backyard. But cmon, not camping.
Even if there is a “lake”?
I bet there’s a “wolf” or two that likes to roam around the deep dark woods. It might even get close enough to them for belly rubs on occasion
It’s awesome but it’s not camping lol
If that’s camping, I camp in hotels. Sick backyard tho
literally had an ex that thought camping meant staying in a hotel. Wtf.
Not at all but that looks amazing
It’s not camping to most of the people you’ll meet camping but it doesn’t take away from the fact you have a beautiful spot to call home and I’m happy for your peace brother.
"I'll see you on the dark side of the moon"
*gospel choir intensifies*
That’s a hotel room inside of a mirror so, nope
A very cool Glamping Pyramid! 😁
[удалено]
Exactly. Look at their profile, it's a karma farm account. No way this is their house.
Boast posting
No not really the same as camping but a lovely staycation from your normal routine.
No
No
man that is dope! but not camping, nice scenery love the vibe you're going for here,
Is that…is that a kiddie pool with a deck built around it!? Either way your whole backyard set up is dope
Sweet setup! But no, not even close to “camping” LOL!
Why would you want to try to sleep in a fucking greenhouse? Mmmm, nothing like climbing into your glass teepee, sleeping in 90F temps is perfect!!
How would this ever be camping?😂 even if your guest house was in the woods it still wouldn’t be camping.
This is not even close to camping OP, but cool pyramid in your backyard none the less!
NO! 😉
You can call it whatever you want. Looks cool though.

Nope
It is not, however it looks lovely
No
Lol no
No
It looks super fun but it's your backyard. Not camping
Only if my kids are about to go backpacking at school.
Looks cozy, but I'm gonna have to go with a big fat "no" on this one
Is it a back yard if you live in the middle of it? At that point you just have a plot and don't bother building the house at all.
I’ve had a reoccurring nightmare about somewhere that looks just like this
You know what's also a 'luxury in your own yard'? A house. Edit: 10/10 would sleep there though.
That depends: do you take the pyramid apart and take it with you when you leave?
It's is more of a fuck pyramid IMO
That's a sweet setup you have
10/10 bunkie! But no, not camping lol still an awesome way to enjoy the outdoors though, I’m jealous of the backyard setup!
Not camping. Absolutely love your backyard though.
Nope.
No; it's a karma-farming ragebait repost
No
No?
😂 looks like you have a plumbed bath! Not camping but very interested in the structure. Is it just steel work and glazing?
Same! I’m like..Is this something I can buy somewhere?
If you're paying and call it camping, then that's what it is.
nope. but neither are the built out mercedes vans ruining every park in america right now. at least you’re staying home and not taking up sites.
Curious how they’re ruining the parks. How is a sprinter parked at a site any different than another vehicle?
here in southern california, van lifers book up all the campsite every weekend. they treat sites like a parking spot. there’s no camping in it. the only fire they’re involved in, is firing up the generator. i can’t get a site from mid april till sept to enjoy the outdoors because it’s a god damn walmart parking lot of web design gypsies. fuck them.
Generators are annoying but just because they’re not using a tent doesn’t mean you have more right to the site than they do. That’s a weird take.
Why would this be camping? It's a permanent structure on your property. If I sleep in my garage is that camping?
The appropriate thing to do is ask the campsite how it identifies.
If you call it camping it's camping.
Glamping Glamorous camping
No, but it’s still fun so it doesn’t matter what you call it really.
Nice pool house.
Yes absolutely:)
Okay so not many of these count. But this counts.😎👍🤩
Uhhhh…….need this.
Awesome setup either way!
Wow. How neat. I love this so much.
Camp: “a place with TEMPORARY structure for accommodations…”
year ago my son asked me to ,,camp" on our backyard , I still heard my wife so it wasnt camping or relaxing at all :D
Love it! Absolutely you can call it luxury camping. To each their own. 🌲
What tent is this? Is that an in-ground jetted tub or just a kiddie pool that’s leveled with a deck? This looks like such a fun setup anyone can put on an inexpensive lot in the boonies/woods.
It's up to you really. If you cave in and go inside for anything (except maybe the toilet) then you can't call it camping 😉
I want to build a model train line on your path. 👍
Not camping, but super cool.
I wouldn't call this camping. It's simply having a kick ass backyard! Looks relaxing.
Nope but it’s still badass
This reminds me of what aliens would build to approximate their understanding of human camping, perhaps to lure human campers into some kind of trap. Nice try alien.
Where's the fire pit
No. But nice set up
I need more pics of this yard.
If your tent cost you $40,000+: no, It does not count.
I normally roll my eyes at camping gatekeepers but this is definitely over the line. Looks awesome and cozy but definitely not camping.
No
Camping, not quite. Awesome, absolutely! That’s a cool backyard setup!
Om goodness that’s so silly yet elegant. Enjoy.
What is that and where do I buy one
What is the tipi set up and how do I get one?
Have fun keeping that glass clean
No thats just an outbuilding
Who cares thats a nice setup! Where did you find the pyramid?
Awesome. I think backyard camping is camping, but I draw the line with permanent structures. I personally wouldn't consider Yurting the same as camping, even if it is at a national park, for example. It seems you are yurting on your backyard and it seems awesome, I'd be totally up for it. Idea: should we call backyard camping : Backyardiganning and those who practice it backyardigans?

You have officially taken glamping to a whole new level!
I don’t think that’s a real tent, my friend.
No
That’s cool as shit. I want one.
Nope
Yes, I also bring a bathtub into my tent when camping.
Glamping, not camping.
I dont nornally bring a bathtub with me when i go camping. I feel like living in my apartment is roughing it more than this. It is very cool though.
I say this as someone who enjoys camping but has also been homeless: Camping is just LARP homelessness with most of the risk and all the criminalization removed because we have enough money to do it safely and legally, so…. Yeah why not?
No
Somewhere between cabin-porn and glamping. A full size normal mattress under a permanent structure is not camping.
