Outdoor Hospitality Accounting
Accounting & tax built for the outdoor hospitality industry
Campgrounds, RV parks and resorts, glamping sites and marinas run on seasonality, occupancy and property. We’re the specialty CPAs who keep those books clean, plan your taxes all year, and help you build an outdoor hospitality business that actually pays you.
The only accounting team focused on outdoor hospitality
Most accountants treat a campground like any other small business — and that’s exactly why owners overpay in taxes and fly blind on cash. Outdoor hospitality is different. Your revenue swings with the season, it comes from sites, cabins, camp stores and amenities all at once, and your balance sheet is packed with roads, hookups, pads and buildings that hide real tax savings. We do one thing: accounting, bookkeeping and tax planning for campgrounds, RV parks, glamping businesses and marinas — so nothing about your park is a mystery to the person doing your books.

Why specialty matters
Why outdoor hospitality accounting is different
Seasonality, not straight-line months
Outdoor hospitality revenue swings hard with the season. We build books and cash-flow plans around peak, shoulder and off-season so a slow February never catches you off guard.
Site revenue vs. amenity revenue
Sites, cabins, camp store, laundry, propane, activities and events all behave differently. We separate them so you can see true margin by revenue stream, not one lumped “sales” number.
Occupancy, RevPAR & ADR
We speak the metrics that run your park — occupancy rate, revenue per available site (RevPAR) and average daily rate — and tie them straight to your financials.
Property & cost-segregation strategy
Roads, hookups, bathhouses, pads and land improvements are massive tax opportunities. We plan depreciation and cost segregation so your build-outs work as hard as your sites do.

FAQ
Outdoor hospitality accounting, answered
What is outdoor hospitality accounting?
+
Outdoor hospitality accounting is specialty bookkeeping, tax and advisory work built for businesses like campgrounds, RV parks, RV resorts, glamping sites and marinas. It accounts for seasonality, multiple revenue streams (sites, cabins, store, amenities) and property-heavy tax strategy that a generalist accountant usually misses.
Do you work with RV parks and glamping businesses, not just campgrounds?
+
Yes. We serve the full outdoor hospitality industry — campgrounds, RV parks and resorts, glamping and luxury camping, cabin and lodge resorts, and marinas. The financial playbook is similar across all of them, and we tailor it to your mix of sites, cabins and amenities.
How is accounting for campgrounds and RV parks different from a normal small business?
+
Revenue is highly seasonal, it comes from several very different streams, and the business is property-heavy — which means depreciation and cost-segregation strategy can save serious money. We track occupancy, RevPAR and ADR alongside your P&L so the numbers actually reflect how a park runs.
Can you handle multi-state or multi-park portfolios?
+
Absolutely. We support franchisees and owners operating several parks with consolidated, location-level reporting and multi-state tax planning.
What accounting software do you use for outdoor hospitality businesses?
+
We build your books in Xero and integrate with common campground and RV-park reservation and point-of-sale systems so revenue flows in cleanly by stream.
