camp
Simple. The ranch means work. The ranch means a bunkhouse with no privacy.
The camp site is quiet and relaxing. George and Lennie can enjoy a meal they prepare themselves, even though it isn't much. They can enjoy the fire and the stream and the trees and animals around them. It's quiet and private. No pressure, for once.

The term camping (or camping out) may also be applied to those who live outdoors out of necessity (as in the
case of the homeless) or for people waiting overnight in (queues). It does not, however, apply to cultures whose technology does not include sophisticated dwellings. Camping may be referred to colloquially as roughing.
