To answer some of the questions.. YES I understand that there are apps/websites out there that currently do alot of things. But there is not one CATCHALL sites. What I envision is a website that would have standard information, but then allow the guests/users to submit data related to the campground, It would not just be about campgrounds the user could submit useful information about truck stops have have RV water, Propane across the country and so on..
That is what I am thinking.
The problem with that approach is that the more "stuff" you try to include in an app, the less-well it is done. I prefer sites and apps that focus on one thing and do it very well. Lots of folks like Allstays because it has so much "stuff" in it besides campgrounds. But unfortunately their campground data is quite lacking, missing lots of locations. A site like The Ultimate US Public Campground Project focuses on just one thing only - public campgrounds and does it very well.
Although I don't use it, RV Park Reviews focuses on one thing and is a go-to site for campground reviews.
As others have said, without offering something unique that is not currently available, you'll have a tough time going up against established sites and apps.
