campground
Outdoor sleeping area
A campground is a place where people can set up tents or park recreational vehicles for overnight stays, typically outdoors and often in a natural setting.
Campgrounds range from primitive sites with no amenities to developed facilities with electricity, showers, and fire pits: We reserved a campground near the lake for the weekend.
Also called a campsite, though campsite more often refers to a single spot within a larger campground.
