There are some helpful things to keep in mind if you're hoping to make a booking for a larger group. We will build more tools to make this easier in the future, but check out these useful tips below for how to plan the perfect group trip on Hipcamp! Please note that you can always ask your via Hipcamp Messages if they have any tips for camping with a group on their specific property.
Search for your whole group size or filter for entire properties to book
You can always start by searching for your entire group size in the number of guests search field. This will show search results for bigger individual Sites that can accommodate your group.
You can also search using this filter for entire properties that are available to book for one group as well - try it out! New properties are being added all the time to make private large group camping easier to find on Hipcamp.
Search for a smaller sized group and make multiple bookings
If you'd like more options, try searching for a smaller group size (ex: 4 campers) to find properties that have multiple Sites you can book to accommodate your bigger group across multiple Sites.
When you find the perfect Hipcamp, go through checkout multiple times to book each Site. It's no problem for these multiple bookings to be under the same name.
What if there will be a different number of campers visiting each night?
If you are booking for a large group but not everybody will be in attendance each night, you can make a separate booking for each night with the correct headcount.
Share important trip information with your group
Make sure that your group has access to your Host's directions and rules by inviting them to the trip via your confirmation page.
Final step - give yourself a pat on the back for being a group trip planner! It's not always easy. Making sure that everyone has access to important trip information can help ensure the trip goes smoothly. Have an amazing trip with your group!
