Transcript:



Steven J Butala:

Steve and Jill here.



Jill DeWit:

Howdy.



Steven J Butala:

Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.



Jill DeWit:

And I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from the Valley Of The Sun.



Steven J Butala:

Today Jill and I talk about glamping and how some of our members are cash flowing with it. This is a huge mile long topic, and rightfully so in Discord, and everybody chimed in. I can tell when it's a good topic in Discord, because people that are just lurking, they start piping in like, oh yeah, this is there's people in there. And so this is why I joined Land Academy. And then they're giving us as an example that five miles down the road this is what this person is doing in their unused cow pasture.



Jill DeWit:

Do you think what we do is a version of glamping?



Steven J Butala:

No, not at all. Oh yeah. I think it can be, but I'll explain it.



Jill DeWit:

Okay, good.



Steven J Butala:

Before we get into it. Let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free and don't forget to subscribe on the Land Academy YouTube channel and comment on the shows that you like.

Erin wrote, "Airbnb, VRBO, glamping. Anyone here ever released their land to Airbnb campsite operators getting $135 a night for a tent with a composting toilet and an outdoor shower? I've been watching some YouTube videos about people buying or leasing lands near natural attractions for these style campsites. I have some lots that could be used for this. Any thoughts?"



Jill DeWit:

Oh, sorry. Nelly wrote, "I've been looking at these for a while. $40,000 canvas tents. Yikes. You can rent out campsites on your property with Hip Camp. Also, been thinking about doing that on a three acre lot that I live on, cleaning up an area near the pond to run out to campers. Maybe do a Deliverance experience for Halloween." That's kind of funny.



Steven J Butala:

I have to tell you, Nelly, if you've ever seen Deliverance, nobody's going to pay for a Deliverance experience. Most of you who are my age know exactly what I'm talking about and you're laughing in your cereal right now.



Jill DeWit:

I don't.



Steven J Butala:

I know.



Jill DeWit:

I have not seen Deliverance deliberately.



Steven J Butala:

Yeah. Deliverance is not for you.



Jill DeWit:

That's what I [crosstalk 00:02:13].



Steven J Butala:

There's no singing and dancing or anything like that.



Jill DeWit:

No happy ending. Like who's still alive, basically, at the end.



Steven J Butala:

So I put this question in here. It's not really not even a question. I mean, I think the real question is, has anybody thought about this? And everybody responded and said, not only have I thought about it, it's happening down the street and all of that. So because it is a topic, we'll just get right into it.



Jill DeWit:

Okay.



Steven J Butala:

Today's topic glamping how some of our members are cash flowing with it. This is the meat of the show.



Steven J Butala:

Glamping is the combination of two words, glamor and camping. So, it really depends on who you talk to and where they're coming from in life. But there are some people in, I used to be one of these people, I think Jill did too, were look, I just want to stay in a five-star hotel and order some room service and jump in the pool. [crosstalk 00:03:01] any part of camping.



Jill DeWit:

I still have those days. Like today.
