Truly a godsend
I never write reviews but this app has actually impacted my quality of life. This year I planned a trip to Glacier NP six months out, and wanted to change sites to east glacier from west due to wildfire smoke last minute. This app made it very easy. Then I had to cancel my entire trip the day before because the smoke got even worse, and I decided to try to go to Rainier NP & Olympic NP literally the afternoon before. Options were slim and most campgrounds fully booked out but I got sites at all the campgrounds I wanted. This app totally saved my trip.

Bringing camping to the people
This app has been very useful. I’ve been using it to find last-minute camping sites in California and it’s been easier to use this app to learn about last min cancels than the official apps from Recreation.gov or RserveCalifornia. Also love that it’s simple, no ads, free for all.
There are other apps out there that charge monthly or annual fees. But it’s hard to tell how well they work because they limit how many notifications you can set and therefore it’s harder to figure out how useful those apps are.

The best app ever
Booked a trip to Yosemite 3 months out and was able to get a spot in the lower valley because of its notification. An app has never made me happier would rate higher if I could
Bug issues
There seems to be issues with the notifications and availability for what I want. I keeps sending notifications that I can book but the opening doesn’t exist.
Text verify broken
Text verify does not send text
The best of the best!
Only cool kids use this! I’ve gotten some incredible sites thanks to this site!
Genuinely the best accessory camping app
I’ve used this to snag quite a few campsites and I’m forever grateful for it. If you’re going camping and you miss getting a site or it’s canceled for some reason USE THIS APP!!!
I love this app!
I recommend it to everyone I know- this thing rules for helping me get outside!!
Gives you a chance
Camping sites seem to always be booked on recreation.com, but empty when you go camping. Campflare lets you know when a spot opens up so you can reserve it. Now if they would just increase the fee for no shows at campsites. We might all get the chance to camp in natures most beautiful areas.
Good experience so far
The sign up and notification interface is slick. Now, let’s see if it really notifies us!
Finally able to find a campground!
I’ve been using this app for several years because I’ve had the worst luck finding camp grounds at NPs and regionally - this has scored us so many campgrounds without the hassle of stalking recreation.gov. Highly recommend!
Great
Very easy to use
Doesn’t send verification code
I have been trying for weeks to get this app to send me a verification code so I can set up an account. I’ve deleted the app. I’ve changed all the settings on my phone. I’ve tried using desktop! Nothing is working.. I am going insane :(
Awesome app
I love this app. I already had a trip planned to Glacier National Park but I really wanted to camp inside the park. Everywhere was booked up. But using this app eventually I was able to get spots.
Love Campflare
I have been using Campflare for a few years now and have had so many great adventures. The notifications from Campflare have let me book high demand campsites without waking up early and hitting refresh every 5 seconds. Thank you!!!!
App issues
App has been very glitchy lately. Can’t see my notifications at all (downloaded & deleted the app) or adjust prior requests.
Wrong time for authentication check
Got alert for Yosemite when I was on my phone, when I pressed on the alert, it made me go thorough an authentication check despite months of not doing it, couldn’t book the site. Why the security? Is someone else gonna book Yosemite from my account that I access every week?????
This app saved my vacation
Wow! This app is a lifesaver. I messed up reserving a hard to get site earlier this year and needed an extra day at a usually sold out campsite. Luckily this app worked wonderfully and quickly! So grateful to have found it!
App and web search function have stopped working
I used to love this app, but I’ just tried to use both the app and the website, and the websites search function longer works so you can search for the park or national forest that you are looking for, and the app never send you the Campflare code to activate your phone number (I selected the app and reinstalled because I was getting an error every time I tried to search the app). I don’t know what happened to it, but I’m devastated. I’ve love this app for years and used it to get many last minute reservations 😢

Fantastic
I never review apps but this is my favorite app. It is so incredibly useful and I love the interface.
