The U.S. camping and caravanning market size was valued at USD 15.45 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 27.05 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 7.6% from 2026 to 2033. The industry for camping and caravanning in the U.S. is rising due to a combination of lifestyle shifts, changing travel preferences, and structural improvements in outdoor recreation infrastructure.
Consumers are increasingly seeking travel experiences that emphasize flexibility, affordability, and a closer connection to nature, making camping and caravanning attractive alternatives to traditional hotel-based travel. This trend has been reinforced by a growing preference for domestic travel, particularly for road trips and short-haul vacations, which align well with recreational vehicles, caravans, and campground stays.
Health and wellness considerations are also contributing to demand growth. Outdoor travel is widely perceived as a safer and healthier form of leisure, encouraging participation among families, retirees, and first-time campers. At the same time, improvements in campground facilities, national and state park investments, and the expansion of private RV parks have enhanced comfort, accessibility, and service quality, broadening the appeal of camping and caravanning beyond traditional outdoor enthusiasts.
Additionally, travel duration has become more varied than in the past. Short breaks of two to four nights are common, especially for people living in cities who use camping for weekend trips. At the same time, longer stays of one week or more continue to attract retirees, remote workers, and travelers who prefer slower journeys. According to statistics, almost 2.5 million people invested in RVs during COVID-19.
