Campground Views has announced the launch of ACRE, the Automated Campground Reservation Engine. Built specifically for outdoor hospitality professionals who want powerful software without a technical headache, ACRE eliminates steep learning curves by using simple, intuitive workflows that handle complex tasks in the background, allowing operators to focus on their guests rather than fighting software, according to a press release.
“While most reservation systems force park owners to adapt to rigid, complicated technology, ACRE is built from the ground up to adapt to the owner,” stated the release. “The platform streamlines day-to-day park operations with an easy-to-use interface that requires no technical expertise, while replacing percentage-based booking commissions with a single, predictable flat rate.”
Beyond simplifying back-office management, ACRE seamlessly connects with Campground Views’ proprietary 360-degree video virtual tours and consumer app, which generated over one million views in July alone. This built-in integration drives camper bookings directly to the park’s website without adding operational friction or technical steps for the owner.
“Campground owners did not get into this business to spend hours staring at complicated screens,” said Mark Koep, founder and CEO of Campground Views. “Park owners already know the level of dedication and visual detail we bring to outdoor hospitality. With ACRE, we built a system that feels natural from day one. It works the way operators actually think, handling the heavy lifting behind the scenes so owners can run their parks with total confidence while keeping every dollar they earn.”
ACRE opens to a small founding group of parks today, with several campgrounds already registered for early access.
“ACRE takes the guesswork out of park management by bringing reservations, accounting and marketing together under one predictable flat rate,” noted the release. “Park owners can go live in a single day with a guest-facing booking engine that charges zero commission fees and puts full data ownership back in their hands. Because it connects directly with Campground Views’ 360-degree virtual tours and consumer app audience, campers can explore and book sites independently, turning a park’s website into a 24/7 reservation manager that runs quietly in the background.”
Campground owners interested in joining ACRE can request an invitation and register for a demo at acre.camp. Founding spots are limited.
