Very easy to use!

We use this at an RV park to make reservations, check people in, take payment, and create invoices. We use this on a daily basis.

Functionality

Pros:

What I like most about this software is that it is super easy to use. There is a grid and map page to check people in. You can quickly make reservations and change them if needed. You can view the people checked in, in a few different ways (by date, listed by name, by park map). You can also easily do invoices and take payments right through the program.

Cons:

There is not much that I don't like about this. I can't really think of anything negative to say.

Pros:

The customer support is quick to help with any questions. CampLife is very easy to use and continues to add features that parks request.

Cons:

It sounds funny, but the colors of the map and guest facing website. We are a very kid friendly campground that uses bright colors in our marketing so the CampLife color palette doesn’t really match the rest of our marketing. The ease of use and feature’s definitely outweigh the colors.

Reasons for switching to CampLife

There were not enough features and we wanted a more advance online reservation option.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the review, Kristi! It looks like your map is using our old illustration style. As parks make map updates, we're transitioning into our new style with consistent icons and brighter colors. We'll be in contact to get you set up with that new map style before your season starts! All the best!

Highly Recommend CampLife

The problem that CampLife has solved for me is ensuring my reservations and availability is always live and online. As a cloud based system, I am able to make decisions and changes on the go from my phone. Having more than one park, it is really easy for anyone on the team to see each property and make decisions when not onsite. The team at CampLife has always been amazingly responsive to adjustments, changes and new requirements for just our park or the software as a whole. They get back to you in a timely manner and have reached out to other team members with different specializations to find the answer that best fits your situation.

Functionality

Pros:

I like the ease of use with this product and the intuitive nature. Each step flows into the next and, should you need assistance, there are easy to follow video tutorials and their customer support is fantastic. You get to know each of the support people by name and develop a relationship with the CampLife team. I also really like that they are always making updates based on customer usage and needs. The development team always seems to be working on new projects to expand and streamline the software.

Cons:

I would really like to see a more in depth filter option that allows you to narrow down the reports that you need or create a custom report based on if/then/and variables. There are so many reports (all useful and necessary) but it can be a challenge to find the one that you want. I would like to see some type of live integration with third party resellers (i.e. AirBnB). I would like to be able to tap into their audience and get bookings without having to set aside inventory for that use. I would also like to see customer service staff available on Saturday and Sunday as they are the busiest times at the parks and usually when something with go off kilter.

Reasons for choosing CampLife

CampLife was 100% more responsive, easier to set up and the support was always there. I didn't run into any basic issues, like having HST added to my reservation fee, and any issues were taken over by the programming team at CampLife and solved on my behalf. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] even spent one on one time with me going through the coding of our packages to ensure everything was set up as expected. I highly recommend CampLife for all campgrounds, large and small.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

We needed more customizable features, which is why we went with CampLife. It feels like every month it becomes easier to create custom rules, and custom rules using new criteria, because developers are continuing to refine the system and come up with more options. When the pandemic hit and everything needed to be changed, they were on it, offering features I hadn't even thought of in order to help us all out. But really, the customer service is where it's at. They are always warm and friendly, and they complete fix it tickets really quickly.

Cons:

I wish the system could interface with Square POS, but they do have a store option; we're a large campground with 2 stores, a cafe, and an events team, and it would be nice if Camplife could interface with other platforms. For example, we use Square and Fareharbor, and I'd rather pay those fees to Camplife so we could work from one system that allows our guests to charge things to their site (meals and cafe, admission to events). Also, we need a few customized rules that involve equipment types, which you can't yet do on Camplife--hopefully soon though, I think they're workign on it. Oh, and it would be great to be able to embded images on different aspects of the cofirmation emails or on the directions to the sites; I asked about this around 9 months ago but I don't know if it will become an option.

Reasons for choosing CampLife

We were wowed by the customer service options, and we continue to be impressed! We also like the ability to create custom rules in-house.

Reasons for switching to CampLife

Our park grew beyond its framework and we needed something with more customizable features.

Austin Lake RV Park and Cabins Camplife Review

Five star for the needy and seasonal staff on spot with Camplife's system including successful use for the guests. Very appreciative of the note section. If not throttle to the wall when creating a reservation with a guest, I will mark a notable about them as a note to me and mention it to them when the come to the park. Surprise to the guest that I remembered something about them. Smiles.

Customer support

Pros:

I, like our staff, are able to reserve campsites, cabins, golf carts, and pontoon boats from any location in the park. It works for me and I am very needy at 74 years old. Forgot to mention accept payment too. All the rates, which are different for each venue are easily programmed. In my case, Camplife support knows that I am needy and assists me for the final pricing. Customer support is superior. Our park is 1,300 acres requires massive maintenance and support. It is superior to be able to speak with a human that is knowledgeable with Austin Lake RV Park and Cabins. On line reservations are there too. I am appreciative of the customer accounting that goes to the guest upon reservation and the pre notification of up coming reservations and the follow up after departure.

Cons:

I use the positive and any "least" is mitigated to not be a" least" with customer support directly.

Reasons for choosing CampLife

2012, we were paper pencil and added 33 full hook ups to the park . We could no longer do reservations accurately, hence going with Sunrise (Camplife).

Functionality

Pros:

Being able to see the grid and know what sites were booked or open. The ease of making the reservation and the immediate email that goes out to the guest is great. Easy to train others on the system. Easy for our guests to make the reservations online is a bonus! The mobile check-in and the text messaging were an awesome addition! We have had so many of our guests love these features. Wish there was a different kind a message to be sent to our parks when they use the mobile check in that lets the park know they have checked in.

Cons:

I am still finding things that I wish the system could do, but it doesn't seem to be a road block. When something comes up that I am unsure if the system can or cannot do, I send an email to support and they let me know if it can be done. They will ALWAYS speak with someone else (usually the Rules Team) to see if it can be done if they are not sure. 9 times out of 10, they have bee able to accommodate any changes I have asked for. So this is a difficult question to answer because if I haven't liked something, they always found a way to make it work for me.

Like comfortable shoes!

Employee training is a snap, with videos on-line for virtually every function/task. We came from a home grown system where 'requests for space' were answered by email. To heck with that! Guests now no immediately if sites are available, and confirmation provided by email within seconds.

Pros:

Uptime (little to no downtime); cloud based, means I can assist staff and guests from most anywhere. CampLife support (chat, email, phone) are outstanding, cheerful, helpful and quick to respond. We attribute significant revenue gains to Camplife....even in this COVID year.

Cons:

Availability inquiry for guests doesn't show that sites ARE available IF they are willing to move during their stay.

Reasons for choosing CampLife

Demo of other systems seemed cumbersome with switching between screen displays to complete a reservation. Pricing of CampLife monthly with annual renewal is not prohibitive with no overhead.

Reasons for switching to CampLife

Efficiency of processing reservations. Guests can select their site on-line and receive immediate confirmation and receipt for payment ( or partial payment/deposit).

Camplife helps us easily manage and organize reservations, remind our customers of their upcoming reservations and sends them a "Thank you" after their stay. It easily lets us view funds owing and makes the payment process easy. Customer service is friendly, prompt and extremely helpful. They are constantly improving this program to make it customizable to your individual needs. We cannot imagine managing this campground without Camplife.
