Harvest Hosts - RV Camping

Man erfährt etwas über die Gastgeber und die Möglichkeiten. Bilder runden das ab. Reaktionszeiten der App eher langsam.

I’ve been a Harvest Host member for about 5 years. Up until this year, it was a reasonable alternative to a State Park when just needing a quick one night stay, or on a busy weekend. The agreement was to purchase something or make a fair donation. Now the Hosts are requesting a $30 donation in lieu of purchasing say…eggs. This is more than many State Parks! Seems to be getting a bit out of hand.

The app is great and so is the concept. Unfortunately the hosts are unresponsive during holidays and many places are in terrible conditions. The more I attempted to use the app it the more disappointed I got.

The website doesn’t allow you to turn off auto-renewal ahead of time. The feature to turn off auto renew only turns on 1 day before the membership auto-renews. This does not make any sense as every other membership that I have ever had has always allowed you turn tun off auto-renew way in advance.To me it seems that the are trying to get you to renew & miss the window to cancel.Trying to get a hold of someone is impossible because they use a chat feature and no one ever answers your questions.

Harvest Host is the bomb

Still had the very hard to see green dot showing current location. Mind boggling that they don’t revert to the blue, which is MUCH easier to see.

It’s a true pleasure to host travelers at the Yoga Shala in Arkieville, USA, as part of the Harvest Hosts network. We welcome retreaters who embody the adventurous, health-conscious, and freedom-loving spirit of exploration. Many of our guests are also deep-divers, committed to doing the inner work needed to heal lifetimes of trauma and create a more harmonious world. It’s an honor to show up in service, facilitating healing for those aligned with our vision of co-creating inner peace, harmony, and love that radiates outward. Together, we cultivate sovereignty, clear communication, authenticity, healthy boundaries, and consensual high-frequency enlightenment—free from control structures, misaligned judgment, and competition. Here, we are unity-minded meditators, deeply connected to the earth and anchored in the high-vibe crystal grid and ley lines of Mother Panchamama Gaia. Nestled in Greenbrier, Arkansas, within the stunning natural beauty of the state we hold dear, we grow and serve the medicine of harmony, gratitude, and healing. We are grateful to align with Harvest Hosts’ adventurous spirit, offering a welcoming space for like-minded travelers to journey across the USA in comfort and peace. Namaste.

Harvest Hosts is the best and most fun way to travel. We’ve stayed at fun farms, amazing breweries, awesome wineries, and all sorts of other interesting locations. It’s a great way to travel and our favorite part of any RV trip. The app also works really well, making it easy to find and book places to stay. We love Harvest Hosts!

After a lot of thought, and consideration, I’ve decided against being part of harvest host, because of a group on Facebook where it seems like a lot of hosts are not happy with the terms set forward by harvest host, and they take it out on the customers. If customers “only” spend the minimum amount required to be part of the program, they get side eyed, chastised, and they get called out in that group that is supposed to be about ‘experiences’. I understand the hosts are having an experience as well, but I think it’s SUPER tacky, and horrible business practice to come at the customer, and create a culture of ‘bullying the customers’ like has developed in that group. It’s counter productive at minimum, and harvest host should not allow them to do this, it hurts them, but mostly it hurts harvest host. When everyone is telling you “don’t join” in response to legitimate concerns that many others have as well, you will undoubtably lose business unnecessarily.

We had a lovely stay overnight at Straw Hat Distillery. We parked on their paved lot. Plenty of room for our 41' motorcoach and our truck. And we enjoyed sampling their moonshine spirits. Great place to spend the night.
