Why doesn’t Arvie secure a campsite when I receive a notification from another alert site?

While other alert services only need to notify you when a spot becomes available, Arvie takes it a step further by not just alerting you but also handling the entire booking process. This includes verifying availability, entering booking details, and completing payment—all within seconds.

Our Sold Out Scan™ with AutoBook™ feature monitors campgrounds 24/7, with Arvie's LIVE Booking Agents acting immediately to secure your reservation when a cancellation occurs.
