Campground reservation software and campground booking software for RV parks
Reserving is campground reservation software for RV parks, tent sites and cabins that takes bookings on your own website. Each site has a type, a size, a season and a minimum stay for the holiday weekend, and the calendar enforces those rules on its own. It costs 49 USD a month per park, or 149 USD with deposits and SMS, with no fee per booking or per night.
An RV site is a room that happens to be outside. The guest still wants to know where the gate code is at 9 pm, and still books from a phone with one bar of signal.

Reminders
01
RV sites, tent sites, cabins and everything in between
- Site and cabin types with their own sizes, rates and rules
- Full hookup, partial hookup, pull-through, tent and glamping units described separately
- Occupancy limits per unit, with extra guest rules
- Units taken out of service for maintenance without deleting them
- Same board for the camp store, the restaurant or a rental kayak if you run them
02
Rules that hold on the weekends that matter
Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day are where a campground makes its year, and a two-night booking in the middle of a three-night holiday window costs real money. The rules exist so the calendar stops that on its own.
- Minimum stay by season and by day of week
- Closed to arrival and closed to departure days
- Seasonal opening and closing windows
- Rates that change by season without rebuilding the inventory
- Lead time rules for same day arrivals
03
Deposits on the stays that deserve them
- Deposit or full prepayment on peak weekends and long stays
- Card hold on flexible bookings, released on your schedule
- Cancellation windows by season and by unit type
- Policy shown before booking and repeated in the confirmation
04
Everything the guest asks at the gate, sent before they leave home
Directions, gate codes, arrival windows, what to do when they get in after dark, where to park the car when the site is walk-in only. Sending it once in the pre-arrival message is the difference between a quiet evening and a phone that does not stop.
- Confirmation immediately after booking
- Pre-arrival message with directions, arrival window and site rules
- Reminder with one tap to confirm or cancel
- Departure message with the rebooking link for next season
05
What the office needs beyond the calendar
Occupancy by unit type, cancellations, deposit recovery and where bookings came from, exported as CSV whenever you want. A group with more than one site runs them on one account with roles per site. Campground management software that costs a percentage of every night is worse value than a flat monthly fee on a good season.

How much does campground reservation software cost?
Campground software in the US is priced in three ways: a fee per booking, a monthly fee plus a fee per booking, or a fee per site. Per-booking pricing looks cheap in the off season and grows with every good weekend. A flat monthly price stays the same in July as in March.
Reserving charges one flat price per park, half that billed yearly, and nothing per booking, per night or per site.
| Software | How it charges |
|---|---|
| Campspot | quoted per park, a booking fee paid by the guest online, 10% on marketplace bookings |
| Firefly Reservations | about 3.50 USD per booking, no monthly base |
| CampLife | about 99 to 249 USD a month plus about 3.50 USD per booking |
| ResNexus | about 2.22 to 3.00 USD per unit a month plus a website fee |
| Newbook | about 250 to 500 USD a month plus a fee per booking and setup |
| Reserving | 49 USD Core or 149 USD Growth per park a month, 24 or 74 USD billed yearly, no per-booking fee |
Campspot terms are from its own pricing page and published pricing comparisons; the other figures are reported in 2026 comparisons and can differ by park. A park that needs a point of sale, an interactive site map or Airbnb and Booking.com channels is better served by Campspot or Newbook, and we would say so.
