Pro would add cancellation-rate and trend analytics plus an AI trip concierge. It is not available yet, it has no price, and we are still deciding whether to build it.
Watch three parks free. Add Roam when that isn’t enough.
Roam is a subscription, and you can cancel anytime. It raises your park watches from three to ten, and adds area watches: one covers up to 1,000 campsites around a place you choose, nearest that spot first. We watch every one of them for a cancellation.
We find the opening and alert you. You do the booking yourself, on the park’s own booking page. We re-check for openings around the clock, about once a minute for most operators and every two to five minutes for a few that ask us to poll more gently. That cadence is the same for everyone, free or paid. Paying buys breadth, never speed.
Where we watch. Both plans reach every region we watch, with more on the way, and one watchlist can span all of them — a single area watch can cross a provincial or state line. See the full list, and how Roam places a park.

Which plan is yours? The free tier is the whole product and not a trial — no card, nothing to cancel. Take Roam when you want more than three parks watched, or a whole area. A busy area can hold more campsites than one area watch covers. For one trip, take Roam monthly and cancel when you get back; take it yearly if you camp this way all season.
You see the parks before you pay. Payment is handled by Stripe, so we never see your card number.
Founding price. One price for everyone in each currency, with no A/B tests and no personalised pricing. We expect to raise it once, before next spring, and we’ll say so first. A subscription you already hold keeps the price you started on.
No password. Every alert is rooted in a verified email address or phone number, and there is no password and no sign-up form.
On iPhone and iPad. Browser push starts working once you have added CampingSorted to your Home Screen.
Questions about Roam
Can I buy Roam right now?
Yes. Roam is on sale now. It is a subscription, billed yearly or monthly, and you can cancel anytime. To cancel, sign in on your watches page and choose Manage billing, or email [email protected] and we stop the next charge the same business day. Cancelling stops the next charge, and your area watches keep running to the end of the period you have paid for. Before you pay, the region preview shows the real list of parks Roam would watch, with a count of the ones we cannot place, and Roam watches exactly the parks you kept.
What if I subscribe and never get an alert?
Roam buys the watching, not the outcome, so payments are generally non-refundable and you can stop them any time by cancelling. If your area watch did not run the way we said it would, that is on us and we refund it in full. And if you are not satisfied, email [email protected] anyway with the region and dates: our Terms commit us to making it right, on top of whatever your local consumer-protection law already gives you.
What does a Roam subscription actually give me?
You pick a place, a distance and your travel dates. Roam then watches up to 1,000 campsites inside that circle at once, and alerts you as soon as we see one open up that matches your filters. Around a big city a circle can hold more than that, so the preview tells you before you pay, and either watches the campsites closest to you or offers you a shorter distance that fits. Your subscription covers as many trips as you set up while it is running, and you still book through the park’s own booking page, the same as always.
What is the difference between Free and Roam?
Mainly breadth. Free watches three parks you name. Roam scans a whole area at a time, up to 1,000 campsites around a place you pick, so you do not have to guess which one will get the cancellation, and it raises your park-watch allowance from 3 to 10 while the subscription is active. We never sell a faster check or priority in line, and the check frequency is identical.
All three area watches are included. Starting a second or a third costs nothing more. To swap one out, pause it: a paused area watch frees its slot for a new one. Taking a paused one back needs a free slot, so if all three are running you would pause one of those first. Deleting frees a slot the same way.
Channels are not a difference. Roam reaches you the same three ways a free watch does, by browser push, email and free SMS, and you pick them at checkout. SMS is free on every tier and always will be. Coverage is not a difference either. Roam reaches every region a free park watch does.
Which regions does Roam cover?
Roam scans: British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario including its conservation areas, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, Yukon, Northwest Territories, Washington, Michigan, and Wisconsin — plus Parks Canada’s national parks, which is how we reach Banff and Jasper in Alberta, La Mauricie and Forillon in Quebec, and Cavendish and Stanhope on Prince Edward Island. In those three we watch the national parks, not the provincial booking system. That is every region we watch.
Roam places a park by its map coordinates, and a small number of individual parks in any region are still missing theirs, so those cannot appear in a distance scan. The region preview always shows you that count before you buy, and any park it cannot place you can still watch directly for free on the explore map.
What currency will I be charged in?
US visitors pay in US dollars and Canadian visitors pay in Canadian dollars, so no foreign-transaction fee shows up on your statement. We default to your local currency based on where you are, and you can switch any time with the region control in the header, or the picker beside the table on a phone. Your price is $59 USD a year or $17 USD a month, plus applicable tax.
