Frequently asked questions
Hipcamp scores F on the API Report Card. No public developer API. Hipcamp provisions private channel-manager integrations (Cloudbeds, Newbook, Channex, and others) by email, issuing a Hotel ID and password. Hosts otherwise get one-way iCal export; there is no portal, OAuth, or self-serve token.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Hipcamp is a North America-centric online marketplace for booking outdoor stays on private land and at small campgrounds, including tent sites, RV sites, cabins, treehouses, yurts, and glamping accommodations.
Hipcamp is a consumer travel and outdoor recreation marketplace, not enterprise software. The demand side targets vacationers, road trippers, festival-goers, van-lifers, and outdoor recreation customers. A Hipcamper searches by location, dates, and accommodation type (tent, RV, lodging, glamping), filters by amenities such as pets, toilets, showers, water, electric hookups, or pet-friendly, reviews listings and host responses, and books and pays through Hipcamp, which holds funds and applies the Weather Guarantee.
Moderate as a consumer brand within the camping and glamping category, low as a B2B integration target.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
