Coverage

How we count

• Watchable campgrounds: bookable online on the official site and accepted by SlothCamp, so you can check openings, watch them and get automatic holds.
• Search-only campgrounds: the other campgrounds of these booking systems (first come, first served, not bookable online, only group sites or cabins, temporarily closed, or still being verified). You can find them and read about them on SlothCamp, but you can't watch them or get automatic holds yet; each campground page says how to book it. The two columns add up to every campground search can find.
• The cabin product is open here, so campgrounds accepted for it are counted too.
• Group sites do not make a campground count as watchable on their own for now. Places SlothCamp doesn't cover are neither counted nor in search: permits and itineraries (backcountry, wilderness, rafting) and places with only horse sites, day-use areas, boat-in sites, moorings or overnight parking.
• Campsites: the sites still listed by the official site in those campgrounds. Retired sites are not counted.
• Each site has exactly one kind: tent only, RV only, tent or RV, or Other (group, day-use, boat sites and the like), so the kinds add up to the total.
• Cabins and lodging include cabins, yurts and lodges.
• "With electricity" counts RV sites the official site marks as having power; sites that don't say are not counted.
• Only booking systems whose search is open are counted. The numbers are recalculated from the catalog every few minutes.
