Hipcamp.com - Find yourself outside.

Get to use this summer for a bike trip. Great spot next to the beach and amazing meeting with the landlord of the garden.

Pros:

freedome and cheap

Cons:

Not the most confortable

Can someone describe how this is fundamentally different from ReserveAmerica? Apart from the improved UX (which, admittedly, is leaps and bounds better than ReserveAmerica) how does really change the fundamentals of the business? What keeps ReserveAmerica from doing a big UX update and having the same product?

Discovered this and ended up on a 20 acre former horse farm which was the rejuvenation I didn't know I needed. People were lovely both host and fellow campers. Hipcamp is an excellent idea

Not a fan. Avid globe trotter and Airbnb Super Host here. A hipcamp host never showed us her campsite and when sent a pic to confirm she confirms. Turns out it was not her property at all. Hipcamp REFUSED TO REFUND OUR 3 NIGHTS and sided with host when she could have endangered us and our toddlers. We never set foot on her property and had to tear down and relocate. Host never tried to meet in-person even though she lived at the end of the road. She refused to open the door for the neighbor who owned the property. The neighbor was more hospitable than host. Host did not mark the sites at all. Will NEVER EVER use this service until they correct their protection of guests and fully investigate the situation. That was insanity. Tearing down a pop-up and having to find another place and set it all back up again plus pay what a hotel would have cost us because of 0 refund granted...all in the middle of our journey. Was a horrible experience. My brother's fam also booked a site that was waist high in grass. Even with screenshots of messages between host, Hipcamp sided with owner.

Love the product, and love our team!
