## Resource

We’re back! In this episode of Outdoor Hospitality Weekly , break down the biggest signals shaping the RV park and campground industry right now: from professional third-party management entering the space to accelerating acquisitions and changing guest demographics. We unpack why a major self-storage operator launching RV park management matters, what recent campground acquisitions reveal about buyer strategy, and how regional density and amenity escalation are becoming competitive necessities. We also dig into new REIT data showing younger, wealthier RV travelers—and why that shift validates higher-end upgrades across the industry.
