After being in the campground business for 30 years (formerly a Koa campground) my mother and I decided to become an independent campground in October of 2016. We had always used computer software to handle our campground with online reservations so that was going to be the biggest challenge for us to find that would work for here. We are a small campground on 3 ½ acres with a 100 RV sites. Our turnaround is daily because of the closeness and being an in-town RV stop. We are located only a mile from Louisville Kentucky so we have short-term camper stays daily and stay busy year around. We needed a software program and website that was going to work for us, different lengths of sites and types, so I began researching on the internet to find something compatible for what we were used to using as a Koa. I tested different campground, resort, hotel and boat dock software’s and was not fascinated about them. I then found somewhere on the internet that Brian McGuinn had been at a Koa convention or meeting and was researching software programs for Southeast Publications. I called Southeast Publications to first get them to build a website for us (Louisvillenorthcampground.com). They did a wonderful job in 30 days. I was impressed so I called again to see if they would build a software program for campgrounds? I was told they were going to start a software program up soon. It wasn’t long after that I was given a call back to see if I wanted to be on board. I took them up on the offer and Brian and I began working on what I needed to run this campground efficiently. We have now been using this software (Mobile Rving) all year and it is meeting all my expectations and running this campground. They are improving the software daily and making it easier. My mother who is 79 years old can use this software. My employees have easily used this software. We are pleased with this software and website combination. It has increased our business and I know it will continue to help us grow and it will help a lot of other campgrounds keep their businesses running with no missed reservations even when they are closed for winter. I recommend this software program for all campgrounds, big or small. Give Brian McGuinn and Mobile Rving a call and set it up. I will be happy to talk with anyone who has questions about the software as well. You can contact Pam Moore at 812-282-4474 or by email [email protected]
Thanks for listening, Pam Moore, Vice President (Louisville North Campground)
