Introducing Two New PlainsCraft Products
Outdoor Shower House
Designed to elevate comfort while preserving rustic charm, the Shower House quickly became a customer favorite. It brings privacy, quality, and style to campgrounds and outdoor stays of all kinds.
ADA Glamping Wagon
Inclusivity took center stage in 2025 with the launch of the ADA Wagon. Featuring a wider ramp, adaptable interior layout, and accessible bathroom options, it opens the outdoors to more guests while preserving PlainsCraft’s signature style.
Growing Our Team: Welcoming Tara
This year, we were excited to welcome Tara to the PlainsCraft team as our new Marketing Director. She brings more than 15 years of experience in marketing across both in-house and agency roles.
Tara has a strong background in brand development, omni-channel strategy, SEO, and storytelling. Her focus on customer relationships, digital growth, and purposeful content has already helped us share the magic of PlainsCraft with more people across the country.
She also brings a data-driven mindset, helping us better understand trends within the outdoor hospitality industry and ensuring our strategies are backed by strong insights and measurable results.
An avid camper herself, Tara enjoys being a “weekend warrior” with her kids, family, and friends — spending time at local parks, on the water, and exploring the outdoors. Her love for camping makes her a natural fit for our mission to deliver structures that not only meet but exceed guest expectations.
