Do You Own Outdoor Retreat?
If not, will you be buying it because it ties in to JA?

Yes. The tent, cooler, and other items are useful even without visiting Granite Falls, especially as others have mentioned for Rags to Riches type play. I hadn't played in Granite Falls much until a sim was assigned the Outdoor Enthusiast aspiration. It's a very relaxing environment, and I found I enjoy taking my sims there, even if for just 1-2 sim days.
