Thanks -- your info was great -- I am a Hipcamp Host. Not all sites are great -- great sites are offered only if the host is very committed to offering good memories (as you experienced)...I appreciate your honesty about the noise pollution piece and that you knew it could be a problem due to the reviews. The review process is not manipulated by Hipcamp EVER. The Host has the power to draw a guest "in" but once someone stays as a guest they have the power to draw -- or dissuade those who follow. AND ask questions about any concerns early... you do not have to reserve to communicate with a host...if the host won't answer a question quickly and professionally before you "book" -- then beware and don't book with them. - Don't go by the review percentage. The site may have 100% but only 5 reviews - not a sure thing -- to new and untried - but if a host has 98% and 50+ reviews that give details about being positive impressions == then that is great.
Thanks for posting this from the perspective of a host. Great info.
OMG!!! I’m so glad I found your channel!!! I’m planning to start solo camping out of my vehicle. Needing ideas and tips. You are feeding me some of the best ideas.
Very happy to help others gets outside and enjoy their time outdoors. If you ever have questions just let me know.
I have stayed at hip camps all across the country. I love them everyone is different.
Yes, aren’t they great??? Love how it’s a different experience every time.
I never heard of Hipcamp until today. Very informative video on how it works and what to look for. Thank you for this great video.
They are fantastic and all over the globe. Hope you can try one out sometime!
Excellent video. You got me looking at hip camps in my neighborhood as well as South Carolina. My back yard was a 3 RV trailers but they were not zoned so it was discontinued when we bought this place. It would be a primitive location right on the High Falls State Park lake. Might check into having my own hip camp
That would be cool!
Thank you! I had a few audio issues due to the wind whipping around on top of that mountain but you can't do anything about that in the editing. Creator woes! Ha Ha! Yes I just love them! They are in other countries around the world too, not just the US. It really has caught on. If you ever do make your own hip camp on your land, let me send you a land owner link. Let me know if you stay in one in GA, there are so good ones down there. ~RVA~
You have to provide a portapotty. My sister looked into it.
We love using Hipcamp, the last two holiday weekends it was so nice just to be able to go out hike and explore the mountains without having to worry about searching for a campsite in a state park or a primitive site on the side of the road. Hip camp is so awesome we use it at least a couple times a month. Thanks for your video it was great as always.
Glad to hear you love them too! They are a real game changer to have in your back pocket in case your camping plans fall through. And they generally pretty darn affordable not to mention a unique experience. Thanks for checking out this video my friend! ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl I'm attaching this vid to a facebook group I'm in for the New England Trail. 😊
Was skeptical on this, I found a cool place outside Chatanooga and never used this before. Thanks for making this video.
I think people are always skeptical. The first time they try anything brand new, right? So happy you gave it a try. Love them as another option of a quieter place to camp.
Thw first time i ever heard of hip camping was today on moonshine guys youtuber Channel. Then your hip camp video popped up on my CZcams feed.
Great alternative to state and national park camping. Usually less ppl and cheaper. If you set up an account, use that discount code to make sure you save that $10 on your first stay. It never hurts to save a few dollars right? ~ RVA~
First thing that came to mind watching this video "This one time at HipCamp...". Another awesome video, I didn't know this was a thing and not only will I be checking it out for future campsites but I informed a friend who recently acquired some land so they can look into possibly setting up some sites!
Yes absolutely! I think it would be so much fun being a landowner and creating campsites for people to stay. Spread the word for sure. Thanks for watching. ~RVA~
2nd 🥈❤️👍☕️
Silver ain't bad right?
You and Metro are so funny! Ya'll battle it out! Ha Ha! Love it! ~RVA~
Thanks for highlighting HipCamp! My hiking partner and I are trying to finish the New England Trail this year (after Julie Gayheart challenged me to!). The relationships between the NET and private landowners who allow the NET to pass through their property is tenuous, and legal campsites are few and far between. Many landowners don't want overnight campers.
Did a section a couple weeks ago and used a HipCamp for the first time. With gas prices, we wanted to stay as close to trail as possible. We had a really good experience and only paid $25 for a spot that was right near a place to get coffee, breakfast and resupply. Excited for this solution to other challenges as we camp, travel, and hike!
Hey SueB! I love my girl Julie! She is out there kicking butt on the MST right now! Yes, another great thing about HipCamps for the reasons you mentioned. When there aren't legal places to camp out on trail, oftentimes you will find a HipCamp close by. And many have shower facilities, water, and restrooms. That's why I wanted to share this video about them. There are so many different scenarios that they are just perfect for. You can't beat the prices, it's unbelievable how cheap some of them are for the locations they are in. Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. Very much appreiciated.~RVA~
Sounds like a fantastic idea to pair up campers with camping spots👍 I like those odds of being the only other person there👍 Looked like a really cool camp with fantastic views👍
Yes it's really a win win for both parties. Crowded campgrounds are not for me. Great spot, that I will be going back to for sure. Thanks for checking this one out. ~RVA~
I love Hipcamp sites. So far every one has been clean, quiet & private. It's nice to head to a site without worrying that someone might already be there.
Absolutely! HipCamps are a huge game changer for me. Just sharing that info with everyone so more people can check them out. ~RVA~
I've Hipcamped a couple of times so far, I love it! It's what you choose it to be, many different kinds of camps and something for everyone! I'm in the Northern Midwest and love to winter camp so they are perfect for me.
Couldn’t agree more! And most are reasonably priced. But unfortunately as with anything else, HipCamp owners are raising their prices. Love boondocking too when I can find those free spots.
Yeah. I just like water and especially electric with this small camper and dump station helps as well.
You won’t find dump stations at a HipCamps since there aren’t campgrounds or large businesses. They are more like boondocking. Which is also why they are so cheaply priced. Some have electricity though and water. You just have to search through the amenities to find that info. Thanks for stopping by. Happy Camping! ~RVA~
Thanks for the info
You are so welcome! Always happy to help share great places.
I was actually going to google this! Thanks for this video!!
Yes girl! They are everywhere! Can't say enough great things about them. An outdoor lovers dream these remote places. Thanks for stopping by. ~RVA~
Everything here looks wonderful. Thank for sharing beautiful video
Wow, you are certainly welcome! Appreciate you stopping by! Come back anytime! ~RVA~
You are able to convey such a great sense of atmosphere. Fantastic upload.
Thank you that means a lot. I always try to make wherever I camp feel like home. A good location to camp just sets the tone for the trip. When you are happy where you pitch your tent or RV for the night, it's gonna be a great time out there, LOL! ~RVA~
So glad I found this page.
In this video? It's just a tarp I put out and connected to my car since it was so windy. I was trying to block out the wind noise for my audio. It's just a cheap one I bought at Walmart and it comes with 2 poles and you can stake down the back. But I do have an SUV tent that fits over the back hatch on my car. Look at my channel and you'll see that video at the top of the page with info on that tent. ~RVA~
Enjoyed the video!
Aww I am so glad! Thanks for watching! ~RVA~
Love the chair.
Ahh yes, my fav chair. That's an oversized folding chair from Core Equipment. I could take a nap in that chair it's so cozy and comfy! @coreequipment
What a cool idea. Like an airbnb!
Yes it's known as the Airbnb for outdoors lovers. I am a huge fan of this site and all the unique experiences. Llama farms to apple orchards, the locations are just so fun. Thanks as always for stopping by.~RVA~
Awesome highlights! Gives me inspiration for ideas on ours!
Yes absolutely! I think it sounds fun to create these spaces on your property. Great little side income for landowners. ~RVA~
Hello RVA, this is a great option for getting outdoors. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thanks, John! It really is. If you get on the site and start looking, you will get excited at the possibilities. That's where we all stayed in Abingdon was a HipCamp. They are even in other countries so if you are traveling and hiking abroad you have those options as well. ~RVA~
very interesting topic, and....many nice views 😊🧡
Thank you! Yes a lot of people don’t know about HipCamps so I just wanted to share the love of these places to give a new option out there. Thanks for stopping by! ~RVA~
you have an awesome setup there looked like a really fun camp
Thank you! I love tents so my set up changes often. Some girls collect shoes and purses…. But I like tents ha ha!🤣😂 HipCamps are an awesome alternative to busy camp grounds. You can’t beat them for the price! Thanks for commenting! ~RVA~
This was very informative! I had heard of it and I may have even downloaded the app. It’s nice to know how it all works. You’ve stayed in some great spots!
Thank you Jason! Really cool places to stay using HipCamp to get away from the crowds. If you ever give it a try, let me know how you like it. ~RVA~
Wow! This was awesome. As long as I've been doing this, I did not know this was a thing. Thanks for turning me on to this! 🤜🤛
Absolutely! Just sharing this info to spread the word about it. If you do book don’t forget the $10 off you can save from the link in the video description. Every little bit helps these days. Thanks for watching. ~RVA~
Very informative video! I've never heard of HipCamps, but I will check them out.
Thank you Bryan! Just search your home state to see how many locations pop up. Affordable camping in remote locations you just can't beat it. I hope you find one that may interest you to check out sometime. ~RVA~
Hey Jacqueline! Great intro to Hip Camping! I've heard people talk about it, but this is great to learn about how to find a location. I wasn't aware that they are online and available in each state. You've had some sweet spots!! Good thing there are a couple more months of summer left! :) like
Hey Girl! Yes, and they are in Canada, the UK, and several other countries too. It's a great website to check when you are traveling or just looking for a unique place to camp.
Hey Jacqueline ☺️ Another awesome informative and fun video showcasing the great opportunities to spend time outdoors and have a few creature comforts if available 😁 Love seeing the resources you provide. Sweet tomatoes 🤠🌲
Another one of your wonderful comments!! Thank you to the moon and back! ~RVA~
Great concept!🤔
Yes! It is amazing! A huge game changer for me for both travel and hiking/camping trips. ~RVA~
Great video! And love the new hair ❤
Thank you and thank you! Ha Ha! I could do a whole video series on hair. But it's not in my YT niche. LOL! It's been a journey going natural over the last 2 years. Blonde is out, silver is in. I have been coloring my hair since I was 18 to cover up my grey and I've been every color out there. Decided to stop spending crazy amounts of money to fight the losing battle. It probs makes me look older, but that this point in my life, I just don't care. Just out there being me, which is sometimes a little intimidating when a camera is in your face all the time. Female YT creator problems. Thanks for watching. ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl I have a friend who did this a couple years ago and it looked great too! I think it’s such a good idea instead of trying to cover it. And probably more healthy since as you age the quality of your hair just isn’t what it used to be. Even at 33 I can tell my hair isn’t the same as it was 5 years ago. Also you are so right, grey is in style! Perfect time to just go with it. Keep doing you!
Cool video! I had never heard of this before. Hope all is well. Crow✌️
Hey there Crow! Yep, that's exactly why I made the video, to spread the word about this super affordable option for travel, and camping. That's where we all stayed for Trail Days the 1st night was at a HipCamp. It was able to accommodate all of us up high on a mountain ridge for a beautiful sunset, but that was after SH77's truck got pulled out after almost going over the cliff. LOL! You have 170 HipCamps in Alabama currently. Thanks for stopping by. ~RVA~
I never knew about HipCamp until now! I've heard you say it before, but I never quite knew what it was. It sounds awesome! Thanks for the info! Your hair looks great! 👊
Yes girl! You got them in PA! Me and the boys stayed at one for Trail Days where seniors truck almost went off the cliff. LOL! So affordable. Thank you its been a crazy long process to get my hair to this point. Cheers to going natural, and well ..... maybe a little purple added too. Ha Ha!
Hipcamp is awesome, I use it all the time now. I wish I had known about before this years ago. Great video!
It really is! Such a great other option. Plus I hate noisy, busy campgrounds. This is a lot like wild camping but with a few more amenities. I have been to a few Hipcamps with several other campers too, but most of the time I pretty much have the camping areas all to myself. Sweet serenity. Thanks a bunch for watching. ~RVA~
Learning time, no idea what a hip camp is! 👏 🤯🤓
They aren't just in the US, but all over the world. You have them in ENGLAND!!! Do a search on the website and see what comes up. Yurts, bell tents, campsites! UK has them~. Whoot Whoot! ~RVA~
We gotta look at hip camp. We are more on finding dispersed sites. But, this looks like a good alternative to KOA when youre out on the road for 10 days and needs something more "luxurious"
I don't know about more luxurious when most don't have any electricity, or facilities unless you try booking a yurt or treehouse etc. Most of the ones I have stayed at are just open land in various locations. But its definitely is a great website to look for someplace unique and different to camp. Let me know if you ever do book a place and let me know how you like it. Thanks for watching MaxD. ~RVA~
I've heard of Hipcamp, but wasn't sure exactly what it was. Thank you for highlighting this! I will definitely have to explore this option in the future. Might even be a fun retirement plan to open one up! Seems like AirBNB for campers, and yeah, the reviews are EVERYTHING!
Just looked it up there are currently 442 HipCamps in California. Definitely do a search. Unique locations and amenities always catch my eye. Sounds like an excellent retirement plan to me! ~RVA~
Awesome I wasn't aware of hip camp. Thank you for all the amazing details very helpful video and man,you cannot beat the locations you've been to and you're like me,bi love solitude so much. What a view from this spot. Nothing wrong with a margarita 😆. You are so right about how important reviews are. It's great you have a coupon for that first stay. Awesome 👍
Yep, that is precisely why I did this video to spread the word about this awesome website and how many great places are just waiting to be camped at. And they are not only in the US but in they are all over the world as well. The affordability of some of these locations is unreal. And they are generally cheaper than state or national parks. Hope you find one that speaks to you. Use that $10 off if you do stay at one to save yourself a few dollars. Every little bit helps. ~RVA~
BTW, Indiana has 231 HipCamps all over the state. You have to lot to choose from.
thanks
You are welcome! Hope you will give HipCamp a try sometime. They are great. ~RVA~
I am familiar with the beauty of the Shenandoah Valley. Interstate 81 is parallel to Route 11!!!!
That's a gorgeous part of the state out that way! ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl definitely a great place to see nature!
This looks like a great way to camp! Great view for sure! 😁👍 Hip camp sounds good. A bit like we have here, welcome to my garden! Have a great weekend! Kaat
It's a new adventure every time. I just HipCamped on a thoroughbred horse farm that was incredible. I know they have HipCamps in the UK, not sure if it's made its way to the rest of Europe yet. Thanks, Kaat! ~RVA~
Good afternoon RVA, what a fabulous idea amd website! Really help people out with finding locations and saving pennies! Fantastic 👍
Feedback from others is so important, a picture can be deceptive!
Ideal for crowd dodging too, which in itself is massive incentive ❤️🏕
Tell ya what RVA, the views almost looked local to us, if that makes sense, very rural (excluding the road noise) good advise on the locations 🤜🤛
Fab video, always nice to catch up, have a great week, Ceri and Kat ☕️ 😀 👍 😊 🏴🧭
Top of the morning to you two! Finding a place to camp is 1/2 the battle. I always love sharing when I find stuff like this to help others out there. Crowd dodging, love that term. I don't like crowds in general and especially not in the outdoors. So this is THE perfect way to avoid that for sure! Hope you both are enjoying your summer. ~RVA~
Thank you for sharing your interesting video. Kind regards and have a nice week, Peter and Alex from Petes Wildlife😊
Hey there Pete! You are certainly welcome! Some people have heard of it and haven't tried it while others haven't heard of it at all. Happy to show people this cool way to find really unique places to camp. It really is a great alternative to busy campgrounds. ~RVA~
I’ve been using Hipcamp locations for about a year now! I find some unique spots
Oh yeah! Aren't they just the best?? And they are around the world, not just in the US. So if you ever travel abroad, you still have them as an option. Some of my fav camping spots ever were HipCamps! ~RVA~
Another great video RVA Hiker Girl! Hipcamps have taken off Downunder too but I’ve never tried one. Just wondering what you do for a toilet in these camps? Also are you a full time vlogger? Seems like you’re living the dream camping and hiking! 😀
Aww thank you so much! They all are different. Some have facilities some don't. You go out in nature when they don't. I am a hiker and backpacker so I am used to using the restroom outside. I have a kit I carry with everything I need. Hmmm I haven't really every thought about it in terms of being a full time or part time vlogger. I would say I am part time, since I still work. But I vlog a lot and I am very active over on Instagram as well. It does take up a lot of my time being a creator, on multiple platforms, but I LOVE it!
I am in love with that barrel chair and just beginning my investigation of hip camp. I am a solo female camper so your advice has been terrific. I do need to know where you got that chair from it looks like some thing I really need have a great day
Core Equipment is where that round chair is from (I also have tent review I did on their 10-person tent on the channel. I have some of their lanterns and string lights as well.) Its big and cozy to curl up in. I did spray it with fabric protector since its light grey and cream to help keep it looking new and not get so dirty. Cheers to us solo girls doing what we love out there! ~RVA~
never hear of a HipCamp to be honest, maybe just something you have in the US. Must be nice to have a camp and only you there, whole place to yourself and despite being a very social person, I love the solitude of solo camping. Sounds like a good idea and well ran too, sure looks like you were enjoying it. Well done on bursting through 5K by the way, cheers Alan
Nope HipCamp is in the UK too! You are in luck! Look up all the campsites near you my friend! You will be amazed!! Are they as reasonably priced there as they are here? Maybe a video idea for ya! Hope you are feeling better!
Ihave heard hip camp but didn't know what it was. I will definitely have to check this out now! Would be helpful if I'm headed to a trail and need to stay somewhere on the way.
Yes, I just had to share this great website with everyone. It's so affordable and gives you so many more options to choose from in trip planning for vaca, hikes, or travel. That's how I use it a lot. Places to stay on longer trips or like in this video I stay somewhere overnight that is close to my hike the next day. Thanks, Tonya for checking this one out. ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl thank you so much for sharing these tips with us as you find them. It's always great to learn about new resources like this. Enjoy your night!
Oh my goodness, I was supposed to camp there tonight but something came up!
HipCamp or Dices? Site 2 has the afternoon shade while site 1 will be blazing! There are 2 huge cell phone towers between both campsites, but they didn't bother me. I had excellent phone service. Ha Ha! Hope you are able to still go sometime. ~RVA~
I travel between DC and Pittsburgh and am looking for places halfway or closer to DC, near 68, Hagerstown or Cumberland areas, what do you all recommend?
Check out the HipCamp website and type in the area and just see what pops up. The link is in the video description. I don't really travel that route from DC to Pittsburg, but check out state parks too. They are affordable and give you something to do with nice scenery. ~RVA~
The lights that you have on the tent. Are they included with the tent? Did you buy them separate? Are they battery operated?
Ha Ha no they don't come with the tent. I have a ton of different battery powered string lights. These I get every year at Christmas at Dollar General. They come in both with and multi colored. I save bread ties, or the ties on Christmas lights to attach lights to my tents, trees, anywhere I want to put them. ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl thanks for the additional information!!!!
could you tell me the place where you purchased your chair.
It's the oversized chair from Core Equipment
What was your favorite out-of-the-way place in or near Maryland?
Hi Hawk, I have not done a lot of Hip Camps in MD, only a few. I did love going up to Swallow Falls State Park. It was super quiet, and that park never seems to get busy. I also love camping at Assateague National Park on the beach.
FIRST!
Congratulations Mr Metro 🥇☕️❤️🏆
I remember who first introduced me to a hipcamp in Abingdon, VA. Her name is RVA Hiker Girl! Thank you for sharing this as these areas are wonderful to stay at and provide awesome views and a sense of privacy that you can't find anywhere else. Did you see that Buckley and Sarah have started their own hipcamp in Ohio?
Overachiever
@@SANDTOUTDOORS and knowing is half the battle
@@TeaInValhalla Thank you my friends! Hope you guys are doing well!
All Hipcamp Hosts who offers 2 or less sites (the best are solo sites) -- Rock -- otherwise you may just be staying at a Novice owned campground...it is the other "people" and their kids and pets who create bad memories of hellacious camping experiences. -- Read reviews and pick a location with two or less sites.
I’ve stayed at HipCamps with more than 2 campsites and have only had great experiences.But I hear what your saying.
Do you have to be hip or are Dorks and Geeks allowed? I was 'hip' for a month or two in the 60's but I'm out of practice...Great video..
Um I'm not hip at all. I consider my myself a huge outdoor geek. Just like the outdoors, its for everyone, HipCamps are too! The landowners are from all walks of life as well. HipCamp is just the name, ha ha! ~RVA~
@@RVAHikerGirl I was joking..I have the equivalent of a hip camp in florida although I don't list it with anyone..Stay safe out there.
I'm still wondering how much Hipcamp costs. I suppose they all vary but a general cost idea is likely what everyone is wondering about. Typically, when cost is ignored in an overview video it's crazy expensive or there's a catch of some sort.
Every HipCamp has a different price just like Airbnb’s and hotels. No catch or crazy prices with me. At the time of video being made, this HipCamp was only $20 a night. (Generally they are cheaper than State parks for non electric campsites) Most HipCamps I camp at are usually primitive with not a lot of people around no bells and whistles and usually range between $20-$40 a night. Some HipCamps have cabins, yurts, or experiences that you have an option to purchase. Some have options to purchase fresh eggs firewood some have yoga out in nature, some have horseback riding they all are different and unique. I hope that answers your questions. Go google Hipcamp and look at what the prices are in your area to get a better idea.
@@RVAHikerGirl 20 is not bad for a good spot.
@@stoneyrunva Not with views like this and its on private land with only 1 other campsite. That's the cheapest campsite I know besides the National Forest ones that are $10, but they don't have views like this and there are usually about 15 - 20 campsites.
There’s an app for Hipcamp.
Yes there sure is. You can use the app or go to their website.
Did not see any trailers?
trailers?
MAKE SURE to use the discount code BEFORE creating an account!
Yes the discount is for new accounts. You can use multiple emails if that helps. ~RVA~
Wish the land owners would cut out the middleman and just rent spots out themselves. Cool concept.
Yeah but some land owners don’t have the know how or the time to create a website then market and advertise their campsites. HipCamp does that for them. And honestly they’re probably seen a whole lot more for the most part because they’re on hipcamp then if they weren’t. I don’t know what the fee is that Hipcamp charges but it can’t be very much with some of the prices you see that are so low.
@@RVAHikerGirl, sounds like a good partnership then.
