Wondering what 2024 will look like?
What are campers looking for in a stay at your campground??
Here’s a few things we found interesting…
Calm & Relaxing Environment
70% of campers are seeking calm and relaxation on upcoming camping trips. Campers feel most at home when surrounded by water. But what can I do if I’m not beside a lake, you may ask. Whatever you can to create a serene environment! Campsites that are located in wooded areas can feel more secluded and peaceful. Spacing campsites a little farther apart is something any campground can do to provide a more private experience which also makes it more relaxing for many people.
Water Recreation Activities
Boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddle boarding are highly sought after activities for many campers.
Good Internet
You’d think that if someone wants to relax and spend time in nature, they’d be just fine without internet. But in reality, a whopping 91% of campers report feeling more relaxed when they have internet access of some kind. That leaves only 9% of campers that genuinely want to be unplugged. If you have trouble finding a good service provider, you might want to check out Starlink.
Fresh Air
Yup, you read that correctly! But my campground is in the mountains or beside a lake, of course there’s fresh air here! Exactly. Emphasize that. Just simply making sure people know, what seems to be obvious, that your campground is the perfect place to experience fresh air can be a significant selling point! Outdoor kitchens can also be a plus since most campers prefer spending time outside vs inside on their vacation.
If travel in 2023 was all about checking off items and doing it all, we feel like slowing down and spending time in nature could be the goal for 2024. Camping is obviously an amazing way to do that! In fact, 93% of campers feel more relaxed & mentally refreshed after time spent camping versus other kinds of trips. So there you have it, 4 tips for a successful 2024!
We wish you an amazing and joy-filled New Year!!
