The camping trip planner

Planning a camping trip
shouldn’t feel
like a second job

Wylara shows you what’s actually available, scores every site by what matters to you, and builds your whole trip in one place.

The planner’s Sunday afternoon

Sound familiar?

✕

Clicking through rec.gov calendars one site at a time

✕

Refreshing at 7am on release day and still losing out

✕

Juggling 4 different apps to plan one trip

✕

Googling "dispersed camping near…" with no idea where to start

✕

Settling for whatever site is left instead of the one you wanted

✕

Rebooking the same campground you went to last year

Wylara replaces the research spiral with a single, confident decision.

The shift

Every other tool starts with a dream.
We start with what’s open.

That one flip changes everything about how the trip comes together.

Dates in. Available sites out. Scored by what you care about.You book on rec.gov, confident it’s the right one.

We’re a scout, not an agent. You still book on rec.gov. We just make sure the list is real.

The product

Three things every other tool makes you stitch together.

Availability first

See open sites, not closed doors.

Pick your dates. Pick your area. We check availability across thousands of campgrounds and show you what’s actually bookable, sorted by how well it matches you.

Site-level scoring

Every site. Scored. For you.

Not just which campground. Which exact site. We score every site on privacy, shade, views, and seclusion based on how you camp. Loop A site 23 might be perfect. Loop B site 41 might be a parking lot with a picnic table.

One map, every land type

Federal, state, dispersed. All on one map.

Six thousand campgrounds. Fifty thousand dispersed spots. National parks, state parks, national forests, BLM land. One view. No more switching between five apps to find one trip.

Campgrounds
Dispersed

We watch. You book.

We never log into your rec.gov account. We never auto-book. We just watch the sites you want and alert you the moment one opens. Your account stays safe.

Gets smarter with every trip.

We learn what you pick, what you pass, and what you loved. Your next trip’s recommendations get sharper every time you use it.

Built for planners

Every camping group has one person who does the planning. This is for them.

1The coastline road-tripper

You want 5 stops over 10 days, all with good sites.

Wylara plans the whole route with drive times, backup options, and booking windows so you don’t wake up stranded on day three.

2The weekend warrior

You know your ranger district. You just want the good site.

Scored sites within your favorite campgrounds. Alerts when a better one opens up. Never settle for the site across from the bathrooms again.

3The group trip planner

You’re always the one stuck organizing.

Share your plan with the group. Let them see the map, the dates, the sites. You still drive the decisions. You just stop being the only one who sees the plan.

Questions

Before you sign up.

Do I still book on rec.gov?
Yes. Wylara is the scout, not the transaction. You still book directly on rec.gov (and state park sites). We never log into your account or book on your behalf.
Does this work for state parks?
Yes. California and Washington state parks are live with more states rolling out. We cover 6,130+ campgrounds across federal and state systems, plus 50,000+ dispersed camping spots.
What if the site I want is booked?
Set a free monitor. Wylara checks every 1 to 30 minutes (depending on urgency) and texts or emails you the moment a spot opens. We never hold or book for you. You get the alert, you book it.
Is this TOS-safe?
Yes. We built Wylara to comply with rec.gov’s terms. No credential storage, no auto-booking, no scraping that could get your account flagged.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. The Guide subscription cancels anytime, no questions asked, and you can pause for up to 3 months a year if you only camp seasonally. Trip Pass is one-time — there's nothing to cancel. The free tier never asks for a card.
What happened to the 7-day free trial?
We replaced it with the Trip Pass: $14.99 buys you 7 days of full Guide access for one trip. Most casual campers plan 1–2 trips a year, and the trial wasn't matching how they actually used Wylara. Trip Pass aligns the price with the use case — pay once when you're actually planning.
