How CampScanner Rescued Our Yellowstone Adventure

Published on September 13th, 2023 by RV Living

New Harvest Hosts Tool, CampScanner, Saves Yellowstone Trip

Last summer, my family and I were gearing up for the ultimate outdoor adventure – a trip to Yellowstone National Park. We had been looking forward to exploring the geysers, witnessing the majestic wildlife, and immersing ourselves in the unparalleled beauty of the park. Our bags were packed, the RV was ready, and our excitement was palpable. Little did we know, a significant hiccup awaited us that threatened to put a damper on our plans.

In the whirlwind of trip preparations, I had completely forgotten to make a campground reservation for our stay at Yellowstone. As we approached the week of our departure, the realization hit me like a ton of bricks – all the campsites were fully booked! I couldn’t believe my mistake. The thought of disappointing my family, especially my kids who had been eagerly looking forward to the trip, was heartbreaking.

Desperation Turns to Resolution

As panic set in, I scoured the internet for any glimmer of hope. That’s when I stumbled upon CampScanner. Desperate and almost out of options, I quickly signed up and entered our desired camp dates and the location – Yellowstone National Park. I remember thinking that it was a long shot, given the popularity of the park, but I had to try everything I could to salvage our vacation.

To my surprise, CampScanner worked like a charm. It was as if it understood the urgency of our situation. Just a day before leaving town, I received a notification from CampScanner – a campsite had opened up at one of the campgrounds in Yellowstone! I could hardly believe my eyes. With renewed hope, I immediately secured the reservation and informed my family that our dream trip was back on track.

Joy and relief that washed over us! Thanks to CampScanner, our Yellowstone adventure was saved. We set sail on our journey with even greater joy, knowing that we had a cozy campsite waiting for us amidst the breathtaking landscapes of the park.
