What Glamping Options Are Available At Progress Park?
My boyfriend and I recently had the pleasure of visiting Progress Park and stayed in the Gigi, a brand-new 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud.
Inside was a fully equipped kitchenette, a comfy bed (more than one, actually!), smart TVs with Hulu and Netflix, and a full bathroom with shower.
However, the outside space was the star of the show. Our own covered patio included a picnic table, ceiling fans, a firepit, Adirondack chairs, and a charcoal grill, complete with everything needed to get it going. We were so grateful for the firewood, lighter fluid and marshmallow sticks. They really made it so easy!
Oh and did I mention the swing bed and hammock?
If you’re not staying in Gigi, Progress Park also offers other great options—there are 7 more Airstreams, a bunkhouse, and two houses!
Want To Host An Event At Progress Park?
While we stayed at Progress Park, we had the chance to tour their impressive event center, and it's the perfect spot for hosting large gatherings.
The sleek and stylish event center offers 10,000 square feet of space, complete with climate control and the option to open up all the huge windows for some fresh air.
There's a front courtyard and covered patios that wrap around the building, giving plenty of room for guests to mingle. They’ve got all the essentials covered too—tables, chairs, and even a laser projector for presentations or entertainment.
There are also two versatile suites for getting ready or taking a breather during the event, and the catering prep area is fully equipped with a sink, tables, a walk-in cooler, and so much more.
