Everywhere You Want to Camp: Hipcamp Doubles U.S. Campsite Inventory to Offer World’s Largest Catalog of Outdoor Destinations

Hipcamp becomes first and only app to unify all types of camping experiences in a single platform with over 500,000 U.S. campsites

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hipcamp, the world’s #1 app for finding and booking campsites, today announced it has doubled its U.S. inventory to more than 500,000 campsites. Hipcamp now offers outdoor enthusiasts the largest catalog of campgrounds, RV parks, and unique camping experiences ever assembled, all accessible through a single app. This marks a significant evolution for the platform, which has been historically known for its private land camping experiences on farms and ranches.

With this expansion, Hipcamp becomes the first and only app to unify all the campsites—from national parks to blueberry farms—everywhere you want to camp.

This announcement arrives just in time for summer travel season and at a critical moment for the camping industry. Over the past decade, the number of U.S. active campers has grown by 68%¹ while the number of campgrounds has stagnated. With demand outpacing supply, 56%² of campers in 2024 reported difficulty booking a site because campgrounds were full. Additionally, recent news of layoffs in national parks and budget cuts driving the potential summer closure of over 4,000 campsites³ in California alone have further exacerbated this already tenuous situation.

“Our campers’ number-one request has consistently been that they need more places to camp that reflect their individual camping styles. As the camper community continues to grow and diversify, from Gen Z to retirees, the need to streamline the process for finding the perfect campsite has never been more urgent. Our vision for Hipcamp since the beginning has been to make it possible to see all your camping options—highly personalized to you—in a single app. AI has made it possible for us to transform our product and build toward the future of camping,” said Alyssa Ravasio, CEO and Founder of Hipcamp.

This breakthrough reflects Hipcamp’s deep commitment to fulfilling its mission to get more people outside. By unifying all types of camping in a single app, Hipcamp is not only increasing access to the outdoors but also reshaping what camping means today. Whether travelers are looking for a rustic tent site in a national forest, a family-friendly RV park near the beach, or a luxury treehouse perched in the mountains, Hipcamp’s expanded catalog offers a seamless way to browse photos, read camper reviews, and find the perfect stay for every type of camper, every time.
