Billing built for your long-term RV & campground sites.
Reservation apps handle nightly bookings. Lot Sidekick handles the other half of your park: monthly and seasonal tenants, submetered electric and water, cash or card, and a live map of who's paid. One flat price, no per-booking fees. I'll set it up from your spreadsheet myself.
Free for your first month. Cancel anytime, and your data leaves with you.

Your booking software wasn't built for monthly tenants.
Reservation apps are great at nightly stays. But the long-term side of a park — the monthly and seasonal guests on lot rent with metered power and water — gets billed on a spreadsheet, or not tracked at all.
Nightly software charges a fee on every booking. My monthly folks don't book nightly.
I read every pedestal meter by hand and did the electric math on a notepad each month.
Half my seasonal tenants pay cash. The card-only apps just don't fit.
What your park actually needs to bill.
For monthly and seasonal sites: lot rent, submetered utilities, cash tenants, and one clear picture of who's paid.
Monthly & seasonal rent
Bill every long-term site's lot rent in one click as a clean, itemized statement. Late fees apply on the schedule you set. No per-booking cut, ever.
The half booking apps skipSubmetered electric & water
Your manager keys each pedestal or water read from a phone, and each site is billed for exactly what it used, at your utility's rate, no markup. Competitors sell this as a paid add-on.
Metered utilities, includedCash & money orders, handled
Log a walk-up, mailed, check, or money-order payment against the tenant's ledger and reconcile at day's end. Built for the long-term guests a card-only app turns away.
No bank account neededA live map of who's paid
Open it and see, in one look, which long-term sites are paid, due, and past due. No scrolling a spreadsheet, no calling your camp host to ask.
Know where you standWho's late, and the notice
A clear list of who owes what and how late, with the late-fee schedule you set, and a printable notice in one click.

RV park & campground billing, answered.
Is Lot Sidekick reservation software like Campspot or CampLife?
No, and that's the point. Reservation apps are built for nightly bookings. Lot Sidekick is built for the monthly and seasonal side of your park: long-term tenant billing, submetered electric and water, and a live map of who's paid. If nightly reservations are your whole business, keep your booking tool. If you have long-term guests on lot rent and metered utilities, this is for you.
Can it bill submetered electric and water at an RV park?
Yes. Your manager keys each pedestal or water meter read from a phone, and Lot Sidekick itemizes each site’s usage at your utility’s rate, with no markup. The same billing engine handles electric and water; master-metered parks can bill a flat utility fee instead.
How much does it cost? Are there per-booking fees?
A flat $99/month, everything included, with no per-booking fees and no marketplace commission. You keep 100% of what your long-term guests pay. The first parks lock that founding price for life.
Do you handle cash and money-order tenants?
Yes. Long-term RV and park tenants often pay cash or money order. Record a walk-up, mailed, check, or money-order payment against the tenant’s ledger and reconcile at day’s end — no bank account required.
How do I switch from my spreadsheet or paper ledger?
Email us your spreadsheet — or even photos of a paper ledger — and we load your park for you — usually within a couple of business days, before we walk through it together. There’s no month-long setup and no training class. We’ll run your first billing cycle with you by hand.
Which states do you cover?
The billing works anywhere in the US. Our free RV park & campground directory currently covers Washington and Oregon — 1,438 sites and counting — with more states as we verify them.
