Now, families can browse more than 500,000 campsites across Hipcamp. From blueberry farms to national parks to RV parks to luxury treehouses, there’s something for everyone. This major breakthrough comes in the wake of a recent study, which found 56 percent of campers in 2024 reported difficulty booking a site because campgrounds were full. On top of that, more than 4,000 campsites in California alone may close this summer in the wake of recent layoffs in national parks and budget cuts.

 

Hipcamp lets travelers sort through different campground filters like tent camping, RV parks, glamping, beach camping and lake camping. The platform also lets users filter by national parks, cities and most-popular camping states.

“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, Hipcamp.
