The Evolving Landscape of Campground & Marina Investments in 2025
As more investors and families explore outdoor hospitality, the campground, RV park, and marina industries are shifting in exciting ways. At The Campground Connection, we’ve been in this market for decades, and we’re seeing some clear patterns in what makes a property stand out to today’s buyers. Below, we’ll highlight three key opportunities sellers should be aware of — and buyers should keep in mind as they evaluate properties.

1. Amenities & Experience: More Than Just a Campsite
Today’s travelers are no longer satisfied with a patch of grass and a fire ring. They’re seeking memorable experiences. Properties that invest in features like:
- Glamping tents, yurts, or cabins
- Resort-style pools and hot tubs
- Pickleball courts, hiking trails, or horseback riding
- Modern bathhouses, laundry, and communal kitchens
- Strong Wi-Fi and work-friendly spaces
…tend to generate more repeat business and stronger reviews. For sellers, this means amenities directly add to the value of your property. For buyers, it’s a signal that parks with experience-driven upgrades can deliver both higher nightly rates and long-term growth.
The campground and marina industry in 2025 is dynamic, competitive, and full of opportunity. Whether you’re a buyer looking to make your first purchase, or a seller ready to maximize value, focusing on experience-driven amenities, financial clarity, and diverse revenue streams can make all the difference.
