Check this out.  http://www.clevercamping.com.au/index.htm I read about this company in the latest On The Road Magazine.

This is what you might call luxury camping without the hassle of setting up the tent and pulling it down later. They do it all for you. Here is a quote from their website

Quote:
Experience the ultimate in camping luxury. Arrive at your preselected camping ground with your campsite completely set-up. And this is not just any campsite! Your luxurious tent is erected, the esky's full of beer, there's champagne and nibbles laid out on the table plus a hamper filled with all the rest of the goodies needed for a full weekends camping. Alternatively, have a full-time chef on hand to cook and prepare your gourmet meals. Now that's camping!

Clever Camping . $500 for two days ? Go away.  I do it better than that and a damn sight cheaper too. Don't need a "Full time Chef" hanging around when we have our evening shower and sit back with a cup or three of red cordial to check out the stars.
When the day comes I need someone to set up camp for me I'll give away me camping gear, well, everything except me little black babies lol.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens  for what I told her I paid for them. pd

Nice thought, being able to turn up at camp & not have to pack to leave then unpack when you get there, then pack to go home then unpack & clean up at home hmmmmmm,

I wonder if they will work for home brew???? Grin Grin

but seriously,
doesn't it take the fun out of it...I mean not being able to yell at the missus or kids when your busting your gut packing in 40C heat & flies when they are sitt'n in the shade having a drink or they decide to help so they pack some thing in the most inconvenient spot they can find, like on top of clothes or blankets when it is all covered in mud & dripping wet.
what would you do without them??? little darlings!!!!!
Isn't  it fun....... Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

Did I post these 10 clues about a campground yet?  US origin:





     
1. The campground partitions off the campsites with left-over FBI crime scene tape.
2. The lake ripples when a toilet is flushed.
3. The campground name, when translated, means "Condemned."
4. Your assigned campsite number is simply "the swamp."
5. The availability of the camp showers is determined by studying the clouds & guessing when it will rain next.
6. The scary campfire stories are all true and happened on site recently.
7. The guy at the campsite next to you looks alarmingly like Sasquatch.
8. He "accidentally" sits on your camera before you can get a photo of him.
9. He "accidentally" kicks your cellular phone into the lake before you can call the National Enquirer.
10. You wake up to find a bull dozer outside your tent and a guy standing beside it with permits to built a highway right where you're standing.
