Glamping in Texas at Paradise Cove

Discovering the Charm of Yurt Glamping with Tina Crawford

If you're fascinated by unique and immersive lifestyle experiences, we have a treat for you. In the latest episode of our podcast, we had the privilege to sit down with Tina Crawford, a dedicated and inspiring glamping host known for her enchanting yurt at Paradise Cove on Lake Grapevine.

In this captivating episode, Tina shares her journey from her initial encounter with yurts during a solitary sabbatical in Arkansas to transforming the concept into a luxurious glamping site in Texas. Tina, her husband, and her surrogate father took up the challenge of constructing the yurt in the scorching Texas heat, highlighting the often overlooked importance of professional contractors in such projects.

The result is an enchanting glamping yurt that offers guests an immersive experience amidst Mother Nature's splendid offerings. Situated amidst serene surroundings brimming with wildlife and a diverse array of birds, the yurt at Paradise Cove is a testament to Tina's love for nature and her passion for creating unforgettable experiences for her guests.

How She Built It

During our conversation, Tina shed light on the challenges of getting the yurt approved and their ingenious solution for constructing a movable bathroom. It’s not merely about providing a roof over guests' heads; it's about offering an immersive experience in nature's splendor. 

In addition to the yurt itself, guests are treated to plush furniture, games, and the ability to visit nearby attractions like wineries and shops. Despite the luxurious offerings, Tina emphasizes the importance of creating a memorable experience over pampering guests with trivialities. 

As we wrapped up our conversation, Tina shared her secret to staying booked all year round - simplicity and customer experience. Rather than relying on advertising, they depend on word-of-mouth marketing and positive reviews. This approach indicates their commitment to customer satisfaction and their success in creating a truly unique and cherished haven for their guests.

This episode is a treasure trove for glamping enthusiasts or anyone intrigued by an offbeat lifestyle. From the highs and lows of constructing a yurt to the joy of welcoming guests into a serene, nature-filled retreat, Tina Crawford's journey offers inspiring insights into the world of glamping.
