Mark your calendars to join us at Launch Pointe Recreation Destination & RV Park in Lake Elsinore for our first in-person event in three years! Stay tuned for more updates.
Outdoor Hospitality Conference

The National Association of RV Parks & Campgrounds (ARVC) is hosting their in-person Outdoor Hospitality Conference & Expo on November 8-11 in Raleigh, NC.
The Glamping Show USA
Update from the Show
October 4-6th, CampCalNOW President and CEO Dyana Kelley was a guest speaker at the Glamping Show USA in Aurora CO. As an advisor to the American Glamping Association, Dyana is often called upon to speak to the glamping community on regulatory and permitting issues.

During a Beginners workshop that hosted nearly 500 well engaged participants, Dyana spoke to Risk Mitigation in 4 areas, regulatory & permitting, ADA, Disaster, and Insurance. The room full of hopes and dreams did not let the challenging subject matter deter them from pursuing their adventure.

“There was a definite shift from two years ago. This year the questions were more sophisticated. The participants were more engaged and had a much clearer understanding of what might be involved in the dream they were trying to create”.

Fellow speakers David Smith of Seaforth Advisors and Shawn Bertini or Four Points Funding tackled the nuances of funding and shared with the participants the importance of a good plan. Even the investors are becoming more sophisticated. As Shawn pointed out, “size matters” when it comes to funding; encouraging hopeful glampground owners to seek out used RV parks rather than start from scratch.

It is apparent that the Glamping Industry has grown and grown up. And as it continues to legitimize and find it’s place in the world of Outdoor Hospitality it will be continually important that the RV park industry take note and learn to diversify.

Redwood Resort
RV Park & Campground

Following a very close call with the CZU Lightning Complex Fire in August of 2020 Redwood Resort, which is located in the Santa Cruz Mountain town of Boulder Creek, made the most of their comeback this year. Owners Joe Raley and Dan Festa headed into this season with little idea of what to expect with nearby attractions lost to the flames and displaced evacuees, as well as emergency personnel seeking housing. Their eagerness to help, paired with all of the hard work updating this history rich resort resulted in an exciting and successful year for Redwood Resort!
