When expanding a campground's accommodation offerings, owners often struggle to determine the exact number of units to purchase and which styles will yield the best return.

In a recent discussion, Garrett and Ken Sawyer of Freedom Yurt Cabins shared their approach to scaling park accommodations. For operators testing the waters, starting with a cluster of about six units allows for layout experimentation and gauges guest interest without overcommitting. Furthermore, offering a diverse mix of accommodations is crucial for capturing a wider demographic. Citing OHI data, Ken noted that yurts rank as the top choice for guests seeking uniqueness, while traditional cabins are favored for their structure and safety. By blending these elements and ensuring climate control for extreme weather, parks can cater to varying guest preferences and maximize their booking potential.

Providing options is the key to keeping guests coming back. Discover more actionable advice on scaling your outdoor hospitality business by tuning in to the next episode of MC Fireside Chats!
