RV lot rental

I have an RV that I host for rent already. It is up and going. But I also have an RV space that I would like to list but can't figure out how to list it because there is not a camper or house on it. It has full hookups for someone who wants to pull their camper in. Can I list it somehow?

Yes, you can absolutely list an RV lot or site with hookups on Airbnb-even if there’s no RV or structure currently on it. Airbnb allows for hosting of unique stays and outdoor accommodations, including RV pads, campsites, and parking spots with utilities.

Here’s how to list your RV lot with full hookups on Airbnb:

Step-by-Step to List an RV Lot on Airbnb

1. Start a New Listing

Go to your Airbnb account.

Click “Create a new listing.”

2. Select Property Type

When prompted with “What kind of place will guests have?”, choose:

“Outdoor space” or “Campsite”

If "RV site" isn’t listed directly, choose "Campsite" → "RV or trailer site" (depending on Airbnb’s current UI-it varies slightly by region).

3. Describe the Setup Clearly

In the listing title and description, make it very clear that:

Guests must bring their own RV.

The lot includes full hookups: water, electricity, and sewer.

Add size dimensions (e.g., “Fits up to 45 ft RV”), pad type (gravel, concrete, etc.), and any shade or landscape features.

Example title:

RV Pad with Full Hookups – Bring Your Own Rig!

Example description:

“Park your RV on our private pad with full hookups (30/50 amp, water, and sewer). Easy access, quiet area, fire pit, pet-friendly. No RV provided-please bring your own camper.”

4. Photos Matter!

Even though there’s no RV there, include:

Clear photos of the empty pad.

Hookups close-up (power box, water spigot, sewer line).

Surrounding area/scenery.

Any amenities (picnic table, grill, fire pit, etc.).

Map view of the area or proximity to attractions/lake/highway.

5. Amenities & Rules

Check off amenities like:

Parking on premises

Pets allowed

Outdoor dining

Electricity, water, sewer (describe in “Other things to note”)

Add clear house rules:

No tent camping (if not allowed)

Generator policy

Quiet hours, trash policy

🔍 Tips to Optimize:

Nightly rate: Research what nearby RV parks charge.

Minimum stay: Consider 2-night minimums to reduce turnarounds.

Add directions

Use “Instant Book” carefully if you want to screen RV size/type first.

Hello @Tayler36 , @Elisa 

 

I do not think it is possible on Airbnb to list empty spaces that are not enclosed, and even if it is possible, I do not recommend it. The vast majority of people looking for RV parking do not use Airbnb. They use other apps, and that is where you should focus on listing your space.

 

Moreover, campers who use Airbnb are usually looking for the opposite experience. They want to take a break from RV life for a while. We were privileged to host campers here during a storm who wanted to park their vehicle and have a solid roof over their heads for a couple of days.

 

There are amazing apps in your region with lots of traffic. We used to rely on them when we traveled with our RV as well.

 

all the best

I think they stopped doing this because I can't see campsite as a choice

How can I list just my RV space, I'm not seeing how to add this listing? Please advise.  Thank you.

Hi @Linda647, have you seen the 'top answer' post here by @Oksana127? Do the options for 'campsite' or 'outdoor space' come up when creating a listing?

Airbnb is a platform for short term rental accommodation so you can't hire out a space with no accommodation @Tayler36 

 

But I'm sure there are specialist platform that cater to hire out space for RVs
