## Dispersed Reviews in United States

### *---- "Poorly made app"
I downloaded the app hoping for a nice thing showing dispersed camp site but like most of them were paid?  Like whats the point of this app, i dont feel like it actally give you good info and it feels bad to use.
-- MortalHunger, 2026-08-05

### ***** "Great app"
Pleasantly surprised to see how comprehensive this app is and the features it provides for the cost.  The free tier is excellent but the premium tier is half the price of others and provides everything I need.  This app lists several campsites in my area that I was aware of but that other apps overlooked.   Kudos to the developers.
-- Tuliptreebeauty, 2026-08-04

### *---- "Not free"
You have to pay if you wanna do anything
-- Gayapp2, 2026-08-04

### *---- "Not much information"
This app has almost no information about any of its sites. It is hard to find exactly where it is. It’s just not a very good app. Do yourself a favor and pass this one up.
-- Dave the video guy, 2026-07-29

### **--- "Could have sworn it said “free trial.”"
Nope, instantly charged my account. So many ‘hidden gems’ are just regular pay campsites. Eh.
-- Squeezered, 2026-07-19

### ***-- "Hard to use and not enough information to warrant a paid version."
I find the map legend difficult to decipher. I don’t think a paid version of this is gonna be very helpful. There’s no information about cell phone signal strength in the paid version. That’s a real key component for me.
-- 33darkhorse, 2026-06-25

### ***-- "Mostly Paid Sites"
I got really excited when I opened this app started seeing tons of free labeled hidden gems! Come to find out not a single one of the places I found on the app was actually free, just regular paid campsites. I’m sure there are locations where this app works better, but from my testing the info’s not reliable.
-- TimothyH28, 2026-06-14

### ***** "Huge Selection from a Small App"
Your app is amazing! I wish I had more money to donate or something but the fact that you are putting the hidden gems into the free tier just made me so happy. I hope this is a lucrative app that takes off for you because I had a great time using it this spring with my girlfriend, and it was super useful!
-- Hbsvdndn, 2026-05-25

### ***-- "Meh"
Might was well call this app 4x4,  way too many are only accessible with high clearance vehicles. Also I ran into a few that are “no overnight camping”
-- DRnLA, 2026-05-02

### *---- "I feel like it has promise but.."
I feel like this would be a good app and useful but as soon as I downloaded it and click to open nothing loads up so yea..
