It can involve fires of course, did I use the wrong term?

My friends 'camp' down the coast from here about six months of each
year. They are certainly *not* roughing it though. A full size caravan
(or trailer) with annexe which has a decent kitchen, solar
power/generator, even growing some vegetables on site. Internet
access, not one but two boats, a trailer for firewood and water, two
4x4's too I have my camper trailer set up down there next to their
setup and come and go when I can.

The fishing is great there, with plenty of lobster. I'm hoping to stay
down there this weekend if the rest of the week goes as planned.

We do that here too when fishing up the lakes, for example.
