I'm not sure how you would describe Tent City in Ocean Grove...
except that Tent City may be the coolest campground around.
Canvas tents are attached to wooden cottages,
the cottage part is used for the kitchen and bedroom,
the front tent part is usually used as a living room.
They all have cute little "front porches"!
The tents go up in May and are taken down in September.
If you are interested in reading more about Tent City, there is a great article,
explaining it all a little better here.
Ocean Grove is about 20 minutes north of where we live, we visit often during the summer.
Tent City is not a place that can be easily described with words,
you have to see it, to get it.

It's a lifestyle...a summer at the shore and the people who live here love it!!

As a child, my parents vacationed there every summer. Wonderful memories of a beautiful seashore town!!,
I don't know that I'd call them tents exactly, but I don't mind that they do, and I think it all looks charming.
Hello, they are cute little cottage tents. Are they owned or rented out? They are well cared for, the flowers look beautiful.
Enjoy your day and the week ahead!
would take only one FL storm...
Wonderful memories of a beautiful seashore town!!,

Wow....that is really cool. Do the folks cont to live in the cottages after the tent go down?
I love this! So cute. Thanks for sharing, Debbie. :)

What a wonderful idea!
I bet they love it, I think I would too, sounds like it would be a fun experience, how in the world did you catch it without anyone being on their front porches :)
Hello Debbie!:) What a delightful row of tent cottages. Each one is charming. I like the individual way they are decorated, and all the flower filled planters.
I can easily see why people love it from your photos! And all those flower boxes! So pretty and fun!
I think it would be wonderful to stay in one of these!
xo.
Has to be better than the one in arizona
These are very cool! And they're beautifully decorated!
A little too close for comfort for me! We live on 16 acres!
What a place this looks. All decorated so nicely.
All the best Jan

How cool is that? I'd love to stay in one for a week!
They look simple and beautiful! I love to spend some days in that place:)
Oh how magically beautiful. How gorgeous those 'tents' look all in a row. Wouldn't it be the most marvelous experience to stay in one. Gorgeous photos, Debbie!
While I think I would really enjoy time away there, my hubby would not. He does not like "roughing it" AT ALL...:(JP
