About Campground Map
Years ago, the best way to find a campground near a destination you were interested in visiting was to look in campground directories. This approach had numerous shortcomings. The directories were often limited, not showing everything that was available in an area (such as state parks, army corps, and other public parks) due to their advertising model. The directories also gave biased ratings, again based on advertising, which didn't give a fair view of the quality of one campground versus another. But the biggest shortcoming I found was that it was hard to find all campgrounds in a given area. Since they were listed by city or town, you might miss a great campground in a nearby town that is still close to your destination. Given this, I decided to try two things. First I scoured the internet for all the public and commercial campgrounds I could find, resulting in a more complete list that also gave equal footing to public campgrounds. Next, I combined this data with Google Maps, so that it would be much easier to see where campgrounds were located in relation to each other, and also to a given destination. I also included links to more information about the campground as well as unbiased reviews.
I recently updated the data for every state park, Corps of Engineers (COE), KOA, and Jellystone campground in the US, so the information for these is very accurate and up-to-date (you can focus on these updated campgrounds using the filter in the app). I also have many more public and commercial campgrounds included on the map, but the data behind these is older and may not be as accurate. I am working to get them updated as well, so be sure to keep checking back!

Icon Action Description filter_alt Filter Filter the campgrounds shown on the map. Only the selected types will be shown.
If you are wondering why only some types of campgrounds are filterable, it is because the information for these has recently been updated and should be very accurate. Others have not been updated in a while and may be less accurate, and as such are not included in the individual filters.share Share Map Share your current map view with others. help About / Help View this page again.
