Who builds websites for RV parks?
There are four kinds of company doing this work, and they are good at genuinely different things.
SHORT ANSWER
Four kinds. Industry specialists build only for parks and campgrounds and know the requirements without being told; expect $85 to $300 a month or $3,000 to $6,000 once. Booking platforms offer a website bundled with the reservation system, which is convenient and usually generic. Local web designers give you a person you can meet, at $2,000 to $8,000, with variable results and a real risk they move on. DIY builders cost $16 to $50 a month and hand you the whole job. We are in the first group and build for RV parks and campgrounds only.
The four kinds
| Who | Cost | Good at | Weak at |
|---|---|---|---|
| Industry specialist | $85 to $300 a month | Knows the requirements already; park-specific pages | Fewer design options than a boutique firm |
| Booking platform add-on | Bundled or $50 to $150 a month | Availability integration, convenience | Generic templates; hard to leave |
| Local designer | $2,000 to $8,000 once | Face to face; custom look | Learning your industry on your dime; may move on |
| DIY builder | $16 to $50 a month | Cheap; full control | All of the work is yours, including the parts you cannot see |
What to ask any of them
- How many RV parks or campgrounds have you built for? Can I see two?
- Who writes the content and what do I supply?
- Do I own the domain, the content, and the site?
- How do changes work after launch and how fast are they?
- What is the total first-year cost with everything included?
Why industry experience matters more here than in most trades
A campground site has requirements a generalist has never seen: a numbered site map that reads on a phone while towing, pages split by guest type, rig-length and hookup detail stated so a machine can quote it, seasonal rate tables, and a booking handoff that does not break the office workflow. A generalist will build you a handsome site and miss all five, and you will not notice until you wonder why the phone still rings with the same three questions.

Related questions.
Are there web companies that only do campgrounds?
Yes, a handful, and we are one. The advantage is that the park-specific requirements are already built in rather than explained.
Should I use the website my booking platform offers?
It is convenient and it is generic. The bigger issue is that it ties your site to your reservation system, so switching platforms means losing the site.
How do I check if a company has really built park websites?
Ask for two live URLs and open them. Look for a real site map, rig-length detail, and rates stated as text rather than an image.
Can a local designer do a good campground site?
Yes, if they will do the research. Budget for the fact that you are paying for that learning, and ask what happens when they take on other clients.
