Campground Finder & Alerts

iPhone
Watch sold-out campgrounds and get alerted the second a site frees up. New watches check availability instantly, and browse live openings on the map, 24/7.
Campsite Sniper watches Recreation.gov and alerts you the moment a sold-out campsite, campground, timed-entry slot, or permit opens up from a cancellation.
The best spots book out months ahead, but people cancel constantly. The only way to grab a reopened reservation is to be there the second it happens. Instead of refreshing Recreation.gov all day, let Campsite Sniper watch for you and send the alert.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick your target: a specific campsite, a whole campground, a timed-entry product, or a permit/trailhead.
2. Set your dates and filters: RV, tent, accessible, group size, site inventory, or permit entry location where supported.
3. Activate the watch. We monitor Recreation.gov on your plan's cadence and notify you when a match opens.
4. Tap the alert and we deep-link you straight to Recreation.gov to book it yourself.

BUILT FOR FAST-MOVING CANCELLATIONS

PRIVACY
Sign in with Apple is supported. We collect only what we need to run your watches and send alerts. See https://campsitesniper.com/privacy.
The watch filter step is smoother and more accurate: site counts reflect exactly what your filters match, and a crash when opening filters is fixed. Alert history loads more reliably in the Watches overlay. Plus sign-in and under-the-hood stability improvements.
