Good Morning Hospitality GMO: Outdoorsy Escapes, RV Shipments Surge, & Bolt Farm Gets First Floating Mirror Cabin!
On this episode of Good Morning Outdoors, Matt Whitermore and Alex Burkett are joined by special guest-hosts Tori and Seth Bolt of Bolt Farm Treehouse, who share exciting news about bringing America’s first floating mirror cabin to life. The Bolts give us a behind-the-scenes look at what inspired the concept, what guests can expect, and how it aligns with their mission to create once-in-a-lifetime stays rooted in nature.
We also dive into a growing conversation around glamping’s corporate evolution, spurred by a recent Thrillist article exploring how major investment might actually enhance the traveler experience.
Outside Magazine reports that outdoor gear prices are climbing due to new tariffs, with 84% of surveyed brands bracing for cost increases.
In other news, Outdoorsy launches “Outdoorsy Escapes,” a bundled RV-and-stay vacation offering with destinations across TX, CA, and FL, in partnership with Spot2Nite. Timberline Glamping adds a new Alabama Gulf Coast site, and Open Road Resorts acquires a 125-site RV park in Wyoming.
We wrap with RVIA’s latest data showing a 13.9% increase in RV shipments this spring, driven by high-end towables and shifting travel behaviors.
It’s a fast-paced week of trends, launches, and economic shifts—only on Good Morning Outdoors!
