Hipcamp Host Summit: Best of Hipcamp Gallery

For this year’s 2019 Hipcamp Host Summit, we partnered with our friends at Social Print Studio to create the “Best of Hipcamp” gallery—a photographic installation that highlighted our best and most spectacular Hipcamps. Winners were split into six “best of” categories; outhouses, outdoor showers, structures, tent sites, fire pits, and signage—and we had so much fun choosing them, we couldn’t help but share a few favorites. If you’re looking for a spunky, unique, and totally-Instagrammable Hipcamp to visit, meet your new wishlist.
