Who's up for the trashiest, raunchiest, possibly most entertaining vacation of the year? I know I am. Returning September 13-16, 2019, Camp John Waters takes over Camp Getaway for an adults-only weekend of campy camping. The all-inclusive experience features meals, activities and traditional tent camping, glamping, or cabin accommodations starting at $499 per person. Alcoholic beverage packages can be added on, as well as roundtrip transport via motor coach from New York City to the Kent, Connecticut campgrounds.

In addition to traditional camp activities, special events include a John Waters Costume Contest (judged by John Waters himself), a themed dance party, bedtime stories read by John Waters, a film marathon of his greatest hits, a John Waters one-man show, a Q&A with meet-and-greet, Hairspray karaoke, Bloody Mary bingo, campfire songs and s'mores, and so much more. Celebrity camp counselors for this trip will be Ricki Lake, Mink Stole and Pat Moran.

If you're the type to bring your own tent, go for it. As for me, glamping or a private cabin seem like the best bet. Cabins are co-ed unless you book a full cabin for you and your friends, which is easy to do with cabins set up to accommodate two, three, four or six people.

Sounds Divine to me.

A Great Solution to Creating Adults-Only Havens at Resorts Everywhere

The idea of timeshares makes me cringe—except in this instance. When temperatures drop this January in Idaho, the popular lakeside Couer d'Alene Resort transforms its infinity pool into a giant hot tub for Hot Winter Nights, a unique experience for beyond-frigid evenings. Here's what's great about it: From 4:00 to 8:00 p.m., the experience is family-friendly. But promptly at 8:00 p.m., the children will be asked to leave as it becomes an adults-only oasis in the falling snow, complete with a DJ and cocktails.

Reading about this event brought up a point I've made to hoteliers on several occasions and even mention in this review of Travaasa Hana. If a property doesn't have a dedicated adults-only pool, hot tub or other experience, for Pete's sake, create one! Adults will appreciate the gesture of a designated time of their own, while those traveling with children won't feel like they're being denied access to a killer view or other unique selling point. Plus, any time a hotel or resort can guarantee a 21-and-over crowd, they could benefit tenfold in liquor sales. Heck, that could happen even if it's just me sitting in that pool all by my lonesome.

In addition to writing about vacation experiences paid for with their own money, writers for Travel Like An Adult often travel at the expense of featured properties or destinations in exchange for coverage consideration. However, the Travel Like An Adult editors will never publish a recommendation for any reason if we do not find the vacation experience up to our standards. We provide honest feedback and will never recommend a place simply because we stayed there for free or at a discount. Similarly, sponsored posts are marked accordingly. Thank you!
