Whether you want to allow Hipcampers to book many months in advance or you want to ensure you don’t receive same-day bookings, you can adjust these settings in the same place - the Booking details tab!
How to adjust how far out Hipcampers can book:
The default “Booking window” setting is 12 months from the current date. You are able to adjust this booking window so Hipcampers can book anywhere from 3 to 18 months in the future. If you have more than one listing on Hipcamp, you can set different options for each one.
To adjust this booking window:
- Click on Property from your Host Dashboard
- Click on Sites located next to ‘Overview’
- Click Edit next to the site you would like to edit
- Click on Booking details on the left side of the screen
- Click on Edit
- Scroll down until you see Booking window
- Select the number of months you’d like to allow for bookings on that site
- Select Done at the bottom once you’ve made your choice
How to require advance notice for bookings:
Need some time to prepare for your Hipcamper's arrival or can't accommodate same-day bookings? No problem, you can select the "Advance notice" that you require. Advance notice is the minimum amount of time between when a camper books and the check-in time.
You can select no notice, 12, 24, or 48 hours as the minimum amount of time you need between when a Hipcamper makes a booking and when they actually arrive.
To adjust this setting:
- Click on Property from your Host Dashboard
- Click on Sites located next to ‘Overview’
- Click on Booking details on the left side of the screen
- Click Edit
- Scroll down until you see Advance notice
- Select the number of hours you'd like to have before a Hipcamper's check-in
- Select Done at the bottom
