Most campsites are sold-out months in advance. Many of these reservations are cancelled—and campsites go unused. Our app scans for these openings. Tell us where, when, and how long you want to camp. We’ll text you when a suitable spot opens up!
Campnab is a beautifully designed interface and service. It makes the whole process super easy to select the sites you want notifications for, and then sends you text messages when there is availability. Thanks to Campnab we were able to grab a site at a British Columbia campground in crazy demand due to COVID, which would have been impossible without the real-time notifications. While so many of these services are bloated with way too many choices and forms to get you from your desired goal to enrolment, Campnab has been streamlined with only the necessities and intuitive interface design. Huge kudos to the team for making a product that so perfectly fits the need, and got our family camping when the availability prospects looked bleak.
Hi PH!
Last summer, my friend @shelkie couldn’t book a campsite. Everything was sold-out, and he was kind of pissed. At the last minute, his wife (Kim) spotted a new availability and they immediately booked it. This led him to ask: “How often do new campsites become available—without anyone knowing?” The answer: Very often.
Turns out many thousands of campers cancel their campsite reservations every day. Most times, these sites go unused, and everyone loses out. This led @shelkie to build a little tool, so, he could nab spots when they opened up. A short while later we opened this up to B.C. residents.
As it worked well here, we went on to add Ontario, and National Parks in Canada. Then, we added Washington State, Oregon, and California. Most recently, we added all parks managed by recreation.gov. (This adds a lot of areas in the U.S. as they manage a lot of parks/campgrounds.)
We both like how Campnab helps people get outside, and spend time together around a campfire. We hope it helps you do the same!
