Hipcamp is an online marketplace company founded in 2013 that offers outdoor stays and camping experiences via a website and mobile app. Private landowners primarily list campsites, glampsites, RV spaces and cabins for users to discover and book based on listing type, location, landscape, activities offered, and amenities.
History
In 2014, Ravasio enrolled in Dev Bootcamp, a 12-week coding crash course in order to launch her web company idea, to be able to book camping grounds online. Eric Bach, an avid and high-profile backpacker and world traveler, joined Ravasio in July 2013, and was later promoted to co-founder.
In September 2014, Hipcamp raised $2 million in seed funding led by O'Reilly Media's AlphaTech Ventures and Slow Ventures, with participation from Dave Morin, Sam Shank, Gregg Brockway, AngelList's Syndicate Fund and Maiden Lane Ventures.
Product
Hipcamp allows users to search for and book outdoor stays and campgrounds based on location, natural features (beach, waterfall, forest, etc.), activities (biking, hiking, rock climbing, etc.), and amenities.
Recent platform changes and the COVID-19 pandemic led to Hipcamp seeing substantial growth in 2020; that summer, they generated three times the leads that they did in 2019.
