Hipcamp Partners with REI for More Nights Under the Stars, for Everyone

This just in—we’re teaming up with REI to make booking and enjoying outdoor stays easier for everyone! Hipcamp helps you find and book the perfect spot. REI provides amazing gear and over 80 years of outdoor knowledge. All you have to do is say yes, grab your gear, and go.

“With the increase in people wanting to camp and explore the outdoors, we know how frustrating it is when campsites sell out quickly,” says Rachael Minucciani, REI strategic partnerships. “Hipcamp is an amazing partner and resource for our members as it works to solve the dilemma of overbooked sites and provide new options for people to enjoy the outdoors.”

This collaboration does a lot more than help people book their next outdoor adventure. With Hipcamp’s unique access to more than 1.7 million acres of private land across the nation, and REI’s gear guides and expertise, more people can try camping for the first time. REI members can also access special pricing on rentals for their next trip with Hipcamp.

“The best way to help people care about the land is to make it possible for them to experience it and fall in love with it,” said Jessie Lucci, Hipcamp’s U.S. general manager. “Hipcamp eliminates so many of the barriers that face first-time and seasoned adventurers alike who are trying to find and book their next outdoor stay. We’re proud to partner with REI to help get even more people outside.”
