Newbook, provider of hospitality management solutions and part of the Storable family of brands, announced the launch of Newbook Essentials, a streamlined version of its flagship platform, purpose-built for small RV parks and campgrounds. Designed with single-site operators and small park networks in mind, Newbook Essentials gives independent operators the same enterprise-grade power trusted by top-tier resorts, Newbook said in a release, without the setup fees, complexity or bloat.
“Smaller operators told us loud and clear: they’re ready to digitize, but too many solutions were designed with large enterprises in mind, not the unique needs of smaller parks,” said Shaun Cornelius, general manager of Newbook. “Newbook Essentials is our commitment to leveling the playing field by giving every park, no matter the size, the tools to deliver world-class guest experiences with less stress, less cost and more growth.”
Meeting the Moment: Why Newbook Essentials Matters
The outdoor hospitality industry is undergoing a digital transformation. Over 50% of small and midsize parks have adopted online booking engines, and 65% cite occupancy challenges as a growing concern. With industry data showing rising guest expectations for digital-first experiences, operators face a clear choice: modernize or fall behind.
Newbook Essentials, helps smaller RV and campground operators move forward — fast.
