Who We Are
The Most Experienced Campground Consulting Firm in North America
Campground Consulting Group was founded by Jayne Cohen — a 50-year veteran of the outdoor hospitality industry who has owned, operated, and consulted on campgrounds and RV parks across the United States and Canada. That firsthand experience is the foundation of everything CCG does.
Unlike generalist business consultants who dabble in the campground space, CCG's entire practice is dedicated to this one industry. Every member of our team has lived the reality of campground operations — the seasonal cash flow challenges, the guest experience expectations, the development permitting hurdles — and brings that knowledge directly to your project.
"From raw land to full operations, we serve as your strategic partner — not just your consultant."

Environmentally Responsible
Thoughtful land stewardship, natural amenity preservation, and sustainable development practices that protect the environment your guests come to enjoy — and that communities support rather than resist.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Working with CCG
What makes CCG different from other campground consultants?
CCG's primary differentiator is depth of experience. Our founder Jayne Cohen has over 50 years of hands-on outdoor hospitality experience — owning, operating, and building campgrounds herself before advising others. CCG is also entirely dedicated to the campground and RV park industry, which means we don't divide our expertise across unrelated sectors. The result is advice grounded in real-world operational reality, not generalist consulting theory.
Do you work with first-time campground developers or only experienced operators?
CCG works with both. For first-time developers and investors, we provide the education, market validation, and structured guidance needed to approach a new campground project with confidence and avoid the most common costly mistakes. For experienced operators, we bring fresh perspective, competitive benchmarking data, and strategic frameworks to take performance to the next level. Our process adapts to where you are in your journey.
What types of campground projects does CCG work on?
CCG works across the full spectrum of outdoor hospitality — traditional RV parks, campgrounds, glamping resorts, family-focused facilities, adult-only parks, 55+ communities, and mixed-use outdoor hospitality developments. We've completed projects ranging from small owner-operated properties to large institutional portfolio developments. If it involves outdoor hospitality, we have relevant experience.
How long does a typical CCG engagement last?
Engagement length depends on the scope of work. A feasibility study typically takes 6–10 weeks from kickoff to delivery. Operational audits and marketing strategy engagements are often completed within 30–60 days. Full development support engagements may span 12–24 months, following the project from planning through opening. During your free consultation, we'll outline a realistic timeline based on your specific needs and goals.
Does CCG work with investors, or only with campground owners and operators?
CCG regularly works with real estate investors, private equity groups, family offices, and developers evaluating campground acquisitions and new build opportunities. Our feasibility studies and financial modeling are specifically designed to hold up under institutional due diligence — providing the independent market validation that sophisticated investors and their lenders require before committing capital.
Can CCG help with an existing campground that's underperforming?
Absolutely — this is one of CCG's most common engagements. Our operational audit process identifies the specific drivers of underperformance: revenue leakage, pricing gaps, occupancy inefficiencies, guest experience deficits, or marketing shortfalls. We then develop a prioritized improvement plan with realistic timelines and measurable targets. Many clients see meaningful performance improvements within the first operating season following an audit.
What does the free consultation include?
CCG's free initial consultation is a genuine conversation — not a sales pitch. We'll spend 30–45 minutes learning about your project, your goals, your timeline, and your biggest questions or concerns. By the end, you'll have a clearer picture of what type of engagement would best serve your needs, a rough sense of scope and timeline, and honest candor from someone who has navigated the same challenges you're facing.
Is CCG the right fit if I'm still in the early idea stage?
Yes — in fact, earlier is almost always better. The most costly mistakes in campground development happen before a shovel is ever in the ground: overpaying for land, underestimating infrastructure costs, misjudging market demand, or building the wrong site mix for your customer profile. A CCG feasibility study in the early stage protects your capital and gives you the clarity to move forward — or to redirect your investment before it's too late.
