What We Do
Our story started by wanting to solve a problem.
Founded in 2015, Campspot was created to bring a modern booking experience to the camping industry. At that time, nearly half the campgrounds in the US were not taking reservations online and we believed we could help more people experience the great outdoors if we brought a modern solution to this problem. It was this same problem-solving spirit that drove us to launch the Campspot Marketplace in the winter of 2020, which has helped thousands of campers research and instantly book from over 130,000 campsites and counting.
Oh, and we believe we’re just getting started.
