Stop Paying to Book Your Own Campground
Third-party platforms help you get discovered. But if they’re your primary sales channel, you’re missing out on higher-margin, direct reservations. We help you fix that.
Online Platforms Drive Awareness. Your Website Should Drive Revenue
Most campers find you through listing sites, travel apps, or a friend’s referral. That’s working exactly as it should.
The problem is, when they search for your campground directly, your website isn’t set up to close the booking.
Your website should be the place where guests feel confident booking, because your website is the place where you keep more of what you earn.
When you use OnCamp, you:
Turn OTA traffic into direct bookings through a site built to convert
Capture guests who look you up after finding you on a listing platform
Keep more of each reservation by avoiding unnecessary commission fees
Build long-term guest relationships through direct communication and follow-up
Establish your website as the central, trusted place for accurate info and easy booking
Many Look You Up Before Booking. But Are You Closing the Deal?
You might assume guests will just book where they found you, but most take the extra step of searching for your website before making a decision.
That’s your moment to win them over, or lose them for good.
You don’t need fancy design. You need clarity, speed, and a booking experience that actually works.
You’re missing conversions
Campers often start on OTA sites, but 30–50% will look up your website before booking.
You’re leaving revenue behind
If your site is slow, cluttered, or hard to navigate, you’re losing guests who were ready to book.
You’re creating doubt
When your website feels outdated or vague, it raises questions: Is this campground open? Do they care? Will my booking go through?
You’re Full on Weekends. But What About Tuesdays in October?
What’s booking itself solid in July still leaves you staring at half-empty sites on Wednesday mornings.
You’ve tried posting on social, running specials, maybe even adding new listing platforms. But the gaps are still there.
Mid-week and shoulder season bookings don’t happen by accident. They take the right offer, the right timing, and a website built to close the sale.
There’s a better way: work with someone who can help you turn quiet weeks into revenue – not just traffic.
You Keep More Margin. You Own the Relationship.
You don’t need more bookings if they’re all going through someone else’s platform. Direct reservations keep more money in your pocket and give you full control over the guest experience.
No Commission Cuts on Every Stay
When guests book direct, you keep the full reservation value instead of giving away 10–20% to outside platforms.
You Control the Conversation
No middleman means you get the guest’s contact info, preferences, and feedback – so you can build real loyalty.
You Set the Terms
Want to run a special, offer a bundle, or follow up after checkout? You don’t need permission from anyone. It’s your guest, your way.
Better Guests, Longer-Term Value
Direct bookings aren’t just cheaper. They’re stickier. Guests who book direct are more likely to come back.
Your Website Should Be Your Most Reliable Booking Channel
You didn’t build your campground to hand over a cut of every reservation to someone else. But if third-party platforms are your main booking channel, that’s exactly what’s happening.
At first, they seem like a simple solution, list your sites, and you get more visibility. And they do help you get discovered. But over time, they start to define how your business runs: the pricing rules, the guest experience, even the customer relationships.
You lose the margin. You lose the direct connection. And if that platform ever changes its terms, or ranks someone else higher, you lose the booking too.
It’s a fragile way to grow.
Your website should be the one place you control fully. No algorithms. No commission. Just clear, direct booking on your terms.
OnCamp helps you build that foundation. We turn your website into a fast, trustworthy, always-on booking channel. That way, when someone looks you up, you’re not sending them back into someone else’s system.
Because platforms are part of the picture, but your website should be the place that closes the deal.
If right now your bookings depend entirely on third-party systems, it’s not just inefficient, it’s risky. OnCamp helps you take back control.
I built OnCamp because I saw how often great businesses get hurt by over-relying on third-party systems.
When one platform has too much control, the rules change, and it’s rarely in your favor. Suddenly, the business you built is tied to someone else’s terms of service, pricing model, or algorithm.
I believe campground owners should own their platform. When you control your website and your booking channel, you control your future.
OnCamp is built around that belief. It gives you the kind of website I wish every campground had, and it’s priced so that real, independent park owners can afford it.
