I made https://CampAlert.live https://CampAlert.live , a notification service for last minute camp site cancellations. It sends you an email and text message when we find a free spot of your choosing. Currently, it supports only Canadian campsites in BC, AB and National Parks.
I've looked into previous tools but their services were all too expensive. They also didn't have the granularity I wanted in the options you could choose for campsites. We tried expanding to the USA last year but since we made it a paid service, it's been hard to advertise and get into the market. When we were free for the first month, we got multiple local radio interviews and news stories which really helped bring that critical mass of users in.
- inson 5y agowould be great if you had parks in Washington state.
- polishdude20 5y agoWe did have USA up last year but nobody from the US used our site. The time upkeeping that code and managing it wasn't worth it unfortunately
