I just can't get past the terminology.  Our family has
a camp.  The only roof there is on the outhouse.  We also
have a summer cabin, elsewhere.  It has a roof, and is a
permanent structure.  A cottage, IMO, might be the size of
a cabin but intended for year-round dwelling.  In fact, in
its life our cabin has morphed from shack to cabin, solidly,
and might have tipped into cottage territory during the
last round of renovations.  (It's uninsulated, though.)

What do you call a camp without a cabin on it, where you
actually _camp_, like in tents?

That's my distinction, a _camp_ is a place of non-permanent
dwelling, without fixed houselike structures.  Certainly no
central heating or indoor plumbing, though sleeping shacks
could still qualify.  They can move, or have fixed addresses,
doesn't matter.
