The campsite you wanted is already booked. We wait for it.
CampHawk watches booked campgrounds around the clock and tells you the moment someone cancels, usually within seconds. Live search across 8,000+ campgrounds is always free.

What a watch does
Examples, not live data.
Alerts in seconds
We check watched campgrounds around the clock, as often as every 15 seconds. When someone cancels, you usually hear about it within seconds of the site coming back, not the next morning.

Auto-cart on Recreation.gov
With the Auto-Cart plan, when we alert you we also try to put the site straight into your cart, so it's held while you get to your phone. Then you just check out.

Say how many nights you need and a window to look in. Any three nights next month gives us far more chances to catch a cancellation than one fixed weekend.

Searching is free. Watching needs a subscription.
Cancel any time, and live search keeps working either way.
What we don't do
The limits, plainly, so you know what CampHawk can and can't do for you.
- We never book or pay for anything. Checkout is always yours, on the provider's site.
- We can't create availability — if nobody cancels, there's nothing to find.
- We can't cancel or change a reservation you already have.
