Find your campsite.
Search any park. See what is open right now, learn exactly when the next window unlocks, and set a watch, all here.
Watch any of 10,107+ campgrounds and 256,895+ campsites across 1,262 parks and 46 booking sources, from national parks to local lakes.
Sold-out campgrounds are frustrating by design
The best sites at popular parks fill up the moment the booking window opens, sometimes months out. But cancellations happen every day. The campers who snag them are the ones who happen to check at the right moment.
-
Windows open 6 months out. Popular sites (Half Dome, Emma Wood, Los Padres loops) sell out in minutes on opening day. If you missed it, you're not out of luck, just out of time.
-
Cancellations are constant. Plans change, family trips fall through, rangers rebook misused reservations. Sites open up every single day. They just don't stick around long.
-
Manual refreshing doesn't scale. You can't watch a booking page 24 hours a day. By the time you spot the opening, someone else already booked it.
-
Camp Snipe watches for you. Set your campground, site type, and date window once. We monitor continuously and fire an alert the moment a match appears, so you get a fair shot every time.
While you sleep, work, or plan your next trip, Camp Snipe is watching the booking platforms, every hour, every day.
How it works
Three steps, about thirty seconds of setup. After that, we do the watching.
Set a watch
Choose the campground, site type (tent, RV, ADA, group), and the date window you're flexible on. You can add collaborators so your whole group gets the alert, not just you.
We watch 24/7
Camp Snipe polls the booking platform's availability endpoints continuously: day, night, weekends, holidays. We respect each platform's rate limits so the service stays sustainable and permitted.
You get pinged
The moment a cancellation appears, we fire a Pushover push notification or email straight to your device. You open the booking page, confirm the site, and complete the reservation yourself. Camp Snipe never touches your account.
Built for serious campers
Not a scraper, not a booking bot. A thoughtful monitoring tool designed around how real campground hunting works.
Rate-limit-aware monitoring
We apply deliberate delays between checks and respect each platform's published usage guidelines. Camp Snipe is designed to run sustainably, not to hammer servers or violate terms of service.
Pushover + email alerts
Pushover delivers near-instant push notifications to your phone, far faster than email and immune to spam-filter delays. Email is always available as a fallback. You decide which channels you want.
Flexible date windows
Rather than pinning a single night, you can watch any weekend in a month-long range. Camp Snipe alerts you when any matching night opens, then you pick the best one and book it.
Share a watch
Planning with family or friends? Invite collaborators to a watch. When a site frees up, everyone on the watch gets the alert simultaneously. Whoever books first wins, no coordination lag.
