Harvest Hosts, the unique RV camping Membership that gives RVers unlimited overnight stays at vineyards, farms, breweries, and more, just launched a major update that introduces a suite of new features and improvements, making premium resources accessible to all Members.
New data layers feature for all members
The first update Harvest Hosts made was their decision to expand access to its invaluable data layers feature. Now, every Member can plan their trips with insights into weather conditions, terrain types, and cell coverage areas, ensuring travelers are well-informed before they embark on their journeys. This initiative marks a significant step towards leveling the playing field, allowing every traveler to benefit from detailed, real-time information that was previously exclusive to All Access Members.
Directory of dump stations
Additionally, Harvest Hosts has extended access to its comprehensive directory of dump stations to all Members. This crucial resource is instrumental in planning the logistics of any trip, ensuring that travelers can find necessary amenities on the go.
New map interface
A major highlight of this update is the completely overhauled map interface. Designed with the user experience in mind, the new map features expanded viewing areas, larger and more distinct pins, making pins visible when zoomed out, and a simplified navigation system. These enhancements make searching for the next adventure spot not just easier but a pleasure, helping Members discover the perfect destinations for their travels with unprecedented ease.
See host profiles, photos before you join
But the map update doesn’t just help Members. Now, those interested in joining Harvest Hosts can explore a far more detailed map of Hosts to help you decide if a Harvest Hosts Membership is a good fit. You’ll be able to explore a comprehensive map and see host profiles. When you become a Member, you’ll get access to more detailed information on each host and be able to book stays.
The platform’s review system has also undergone a significant revamp. With the introduction of added photos and a new easy-to-read layout, Members can now gain comprehensive insights into potential stays. This enriched content allows travelers to make informed decisions, setting expectations accurately, and fostering the values of the Harvest Hosts community: helping each other find incredible travel experiences.
Lastly, the new immersive photo gallery view transforms how Members explore potential destinations. This feature enables users to browse through multiple photos simultaneously, offering a better glimpse of what awaits at their upcoming stays. Improved photo loading times further enhance the browsing experience, making it smoother, more engaging, and easier to find the photos you’re looking for.
The update is now live, inviting Members to explore the new features by visiting HarvestHosts.com or updating their app.

Thank you RV Travel! 🙂 We were members of Harvest Hosts, including the golf courses, for two or three years. There seemed to be few sites in the east, and we managed to stay at one site twice and another site once during our membership. So we let our membership lapse. The suggested purchase amount wasn’t exorbitant, but typically was for a site with no utilities. So, for us, Cracker Barrels better suits our travel paths and entail a more satisfying exchange to compensate the store for its hospitality. Thanks again and safe travels 🙂
Agree. We dropped the program after two years, as we found few places along our routes in the East.
Long time “Hall of Fame” host (over 290 guest stays) and am not a fan a few of the changes. Specifically the host calendar now shows the departure day also highlighted. Very confusing when you have multiple guests. Before, it only showed the nights the person was staying. 2 night stay, two dates were green. Now two night stay, 3 days are green. Worse, when a one night stay, the calendar shows green on two nights. IMO, It makes taking a quick glance of your stays harder. Also, much preferred that the name of the guest also showed up in the green stay bar. One last thing I discovered last night is that the button to adjust arrival date is MIA. Never did find it.
