Upscale Cabins Booming at National ParksPhoto: The Goat
Following suit with current trends at national parks, including decreased RV traffic and increased non-recreational visits, there s a new trend on the horizon: upscale cabins.

Campers get their own bathroom, a kitchen with full-size appliances, and usually a big deck with park views plus a barbecue. You know, not having to haul beer deep into the backcountry would be kind of nice. I guess that as long as the volume of people pouring into parks and bringing their money continues to rise, this kind of thing is okay... at tolerable levels.
