About CampScout - Campsite Alerts
CampScout watches Recreation.gov campgrounds for you and sends a push notification the moment a matching site opens up — so you don't have to keep refreshing the page yourself. FIND Search campgrounds by name or explore an entire area on the map. SET YOUR ALERT Pick your dates, length of stay, and site preferences — even down to a specific loop or site number. GET NOTIFIED CampScout checks availability on your behalf and tells you exactly which site and dates opened up — tap the notification to jump straight to Recreation.gov and book it. WATCH FOR RELEASE DAY Recreation.gov opens bookings on a rolling schedule, often months in advance. CampScout estimates when your dates enter the booking window and can notify you the moment it's confirmed open. WEATHER, BUILT IN See a real forecast (or typical conditions for dates further out) right when you're setting up an alert. CampScout is free to use with one active alert. Upgrade to CampScout Pro for unlimited alerts and faster checks, or grab a 30-day scan credit for a single upcoming trip.

What’s new
Version 1.2.0 · Updated October 21, 2026
Know before you go. • Wildfire & air quality: campground pages and your Trip Brief now show active wildfires within 50 miles and the current air quality, so you can spot fire or smoke before you pack. • Wildfire alerts for your trips: if a new wildfire starts within about 25 miles of a campground you've booked, CampScout sends a notification, starting about three weeks before your trip and continuing through checkout. Tap it to open your Trip Brief. • Explore by Area now draws your search radius on the map, so you can see exactly how far you're searching. • Small fixes and improvements.
