The booking page
One link guests actually finish booking on.
bunkpost.com/book/your-park — put it on your Google listing, your Facebook page, your voicemail. Guests pick dates, pick their exact site on your campground map, and pay. You hear about it when the confirmation email lands, not when the phone rings.

The calendar
Double bookings aren't “rare.” They're impossible.
Most software checks for conflicts. Bunkpost's database physically refuses to save two reservations on the same site for the same night — even if two guests hit “book” at the same second. Nobody shows up to an occupied pad. Ever.
The money
Paid out daily. Automatically.
Payments run on Stripe Connect: guests pay by card on your booking page, and payouts are issued to your bank every day. No merchant account paperwork, no waiting on a monthly check, no chasing anyone for your money.
Powered by Stripe · Onboard from Settings → Payments · No API keys to touch

The office work
Rates, taxes, policies — set once, enforced forever.
Seasonal rates
Peak, shoulder, off-season. Define your seasons and nightly rates once; every quote uses them automatically.
Taxes, done for you
Lodging and sales taxes calculated on every booking. No arithmetic on sticky notes, no surprises at filing time.
Your rules at checkout
Deposits, cancellation windows, refund terms — shown to guests before they pay and enforced without an argument.
The rest of the park
It runs the store and does the books, too.
Interactive site map
Upload your campground map, pin your sites, and guests book the exact spot they want — or pay a site-lock fee to guarantee it.
Camp store register
Firewood, ice, s'mores kits: scan a barcode, take cash or card, or charge it to the guest's site. Stock counts itself down.
Reports & accounting
Revenue, occupancy, and the exact tax to remit — plus a CSV export your accountant can drop into QuickBooks.
Your brand, not ours
Match the booking page to your website: your logo, your colors, your fonts. Guests never feel like they left your site.
Monthly & seasonal stays
Long-term guests hold their site all season and get monthly invoices — metered electric included, if you read meters.
Promos, add-ons & waitlist
Promo codes, firewood at checkout, dynamic pricing when you want it, and a waitlist that emails guests when a site opens up.
A different kind of platform
We don't list your park next to your competitors.
Marketplace platforms sell your guests to the highest bidder and take a percentage of every booking for the privilege. Bunkpost is just your software: your link, your guests, your brand.

Can I Work From Here? Campground Wi-Fi and the Remote-Work Guest
Remote workers stay longer and fill midweek nights — if your Wi-Fi holds a video call. What 'work-ready' actually means, what it costs, and when it isn't worth it.
