Making sure the location for your Camp is correct is one of the most important things you can do to become a successful Host. Hipcampers expect clear, easy-to-follow instructions that will get them outside and enjoying nature quickly and effectively.
Sometimes, a Camp can be really remote and not have a traditional address, such as 123 Main Street - that's when getting the latitude and longitude coordinates for your location is key. It's also super easy to do if you follow these quick steps:
