Features

Everything you need to find and book your next campsite.

Find

  • Map search

    Pan or zoom to see live campground availability inside your current map view.

  • Place search

    Type any destination and the map flies to a regional view that frames every nearby option.

  • Filter by booking system

    Stay in Recreation.gov and federal sites only, narrow to a specific state-park system, or include walk-up and free dispersed sites. Seven systems indexed.

Decide

  • Live status & weather

    Each campsite shows the last polling timestamp from its source — Recreation.gov, ReserveCalifornia, AZStateParks, Oregon SP, Washington SP, Utah SP, or CPW Shop — alongside the per-day NWS weather forecast for the site coordinates.

  • Scout Report

    The Scout Report ranks 3 to 5 top picks from your current map view by availability, weather, fire proximity, road access, and water proximity. Streams as it generates — usually under 60 seconds. One free per signup, then included with Pro.

  • Wildfire & road overlays

    130,568 USFS Motor Vehicle Use Map road segments and real-time NASA FIRMS wildfire detections rendered directly on the map. See whether the forest road you’re planning is open to passenger vehicles, and how close active fire is to your destination, in the same view.

  • Public-land boundaries

    National Park, Monument, Preserve, National Forest, and BLM boundaries rendered directly on the map. The boundary shows you whether the dispersed site you’re eyeing actually sits on public land before you drive to it.

  • Trails and water

    5,060 trailheads, 5,007 boat ramps and kayak launches, and 2,970 USGS streamflow gauges indexed across the West. The Scout Report weaves the closest options into your top picks so you know what’s walkable from camp before you book.

Save & track

  • Saved sites

    Save a site to pin it to your account across devices. Look for a campground from your laptop in the morning, get back to it on your phone at the trailhead.
