There's a rapidly growing community of polite people looking to get outside for camping, glamping, and RV stays during their travels - on private land.
It's called Hipcamp, and anyone with a property that allows visitors to connect with nature can be a Hipcamp Host! Whether you have an acre of primitive property near the Sierra Nevada, a hobby farm on the coast, a rural yard with a spot for a campervan, or a slice of desert on the route to Joshua Tree, odds are our community can’t wait to come!
The platform is EXPLODING, and among those who took notice have been rapper Jay-Z and actor Will Smith, who invested in the companies last fundraising round.
But when a new concept is hot, you don't need to invest to make a profit - you just need to participate, it'll cost you $0 and could earn you thousands.
In the first 8 months of after its introduction, numerous Hipcamp Hosts earned as much as $9,000, $11,000, $18,000 and even $21,000!

It's being called 'the AirBNB of the outdoors' as it taps in to a whole world tent camping, RV travelers, and adventurers who would rather stay in cabins or treehouses.

| Vacation cabins that sat empty much of the year have become an additional income source for their owners. |
Let's do the math...
Someone with open land can let people bring tents, and camp there for 165 days out of the year - at $55/night that totals $9,075 - and that's without sharing your land for the other 200 days out of the year!
Someone with a vacation cabin can fill it on days they won't be there - at $155/night and only sharing it 100 days totals $15,500 - and they can still enjoy the cabin to themselves the other 265 days of the year!
Visitors will be instructed to follow our guest guidelines, and a system is in place to identify and remove those who do not...
During the checkout process, each Hipcamper acknowledges having read the rules and guidelines, plus you can also establish specific guidelines for anyone staying on your property. Any user marked for minor infractions will be contacted by Hipcamp administration and given a warning and explanation of the situation. Serious violations will result in an immediate suspension from the platform.
Hipcamp's key principle is "Leave it Better," and all community members are encouraged to uphold this objective by adhering to the 'Leave No Trace' standard when cleaning up.
So far this hasn't been an issue - Hipcamp reports that Hosts frequently compliment Hipcampers' appreciation for their property!
