Once you’ve named your Property, the next step is to name your individual sites or structures. A well-chosen name helps Hipcampers understand what makes each site unique and guides them toward the best fit for their stay. Here are a few tips to guide you to the perfect site names.
Highlight a Defining Feature
ach site has something that sets it apart—its location, views, natural elements, or unique characteristics.
Examples:
✅ "Creekside Tent Spot" (for a site next to a stream)
✅ "Sunset Lookout Cabin" (for a structure with stunning evening views)
✅ "Meadow Nest Campsite" (for a peaceful clearing in a field)
Keep It Descriptive and Functional
Hipcampers should get a clear idea of what to expect from the name alone. Avoid overly abstract names that don’t give clues about the site.
Better Options:
❌ "Unit 3" → ✅ "Shady Oak Campsite"
❌ "Standard Tent Spot" → ✅ "Ridgeview Tent Site"
❌ “Medium Yurt” → ✅ "Creekside Family Yurt"
Use Local or Personal Inspiration
Tie the name to your land’s history, wildlife, or a special meaning.
Examples:
✅ "Osprey Nest Cabin" (if ospreys frequently nest nearby)
✅ "Grandfather Pine Campsite" (named after an old, towering tree)
✅ "Bluebell Hollow Tent Spot" (for a site surrounded by seasonal wildflowers)
Consider the Camper Experience
Help Hipcampers imagine their stay by choosing names that reflect the vibe of the site.
Examples:
✅ "Stargazer’s Haven" (for an open site with incredible night skies)
✅ "Cozy Woodland Retreat" (for a tucked-away glamping spot)
✅ "The Hideaway" (for a secluded, private site)
Ensure consistency with on-site plans and layout
If your sites are laid out in a specific way or are numbered, be sure to include that in the name to help guide Hipcampers to the right spot when they arrive. This makes navigation easier and avoids confusion.
Examples:
✅ "Site 1 – Creekside Haven" (for a numbered site by the water)
✅ "Upper Meadow Tent Spot" (for a site located in a distinct area)
✅ "Cabin 3 – The Lookout" (for a numbered structure with a great view)
Final Tips
- Keep names short, clear, and easy to remember (2–4 words is ideal).
- Ensure each site name is distinct to avoid confusion.
- Consider a theme across multiple sites (e.g. all tree names, constellations, or local animals).
A thoughtful name helps Hipcampers quickly find the perfect site for their stay and makes their experience more memorable!
