HipCamp started out good but not anymore
HipCamp started with a good idea to be diverse and be inclusive, but the devil is in the details, and HipCamp is not really camper-friendly, but host-friendly. This is an upside down business model. The money comes from the campers but HipCamp charges by the night, making it quite expensive if you camp for more than a few days. No option for an annual or semi-annual or even monthly membership. AND recently they started letting hosts charge a pet fee per night and per pet, which is OUTRAGEOUS. The hosts do nothing for the pets, and the pets are on a leash, so what is the pet fee for? It's a rip-off.
