Campground - Reservations

Updated this week

New customers: If the customer does not yet have a record in Sharper, create them first in CRM → Customers before creating the reservation.

This page covers the Campground Reservations list — how to find, filter, and manage existing reservations. For step-by-step reservation creation guides, see the articles below.


Accessing the Reservations List

Navigate to Campground → Reservations from the top ribbon.


Creating a New Reservation

Click Add New in the upper-right corner. Use the drop-down arrow to select Advanced Reservation — the standard creation workflow. Select a booking period (Transient, Long-Term, or Seasonal) on the next screen.

Opening a Reservation

Click any row in the list to open the reservation summary. From there you can:

  • View the customer and vehicle details

  • See the space assignment

  • Review accounting settings and invoice history

  • Change the reservation status

  • Add incidental charges

  • Send e-sign contracts

  • Make payments or view the balance


Changing Reservation Status

From the reservation summary, use the Status field or the three-dot action menu to update status:

  • Confirm — Move a Reserved reservation to Confirmed

  • Check In — Mark the guest as arrived

  • Check Out — Mark the guest as departed

  • Cancel — Cancel the reservation

Warning: Cancelling a reservation does not automatically issue a refund. Any refund must be processed manually in the Accounting or CRM module based on the applicable cancellation policy.

For bulk check-in/check-out of seasonal reservations, use the Dashboard.


Editing a Reservation

  1. Open the reservation from the list.

  2. Click Edit at the top of the reservation form.

  3. Make the necessary changes.

  4. Click Save.

Note: Changing the space on an existing reservation creates a Space Assignment record tracking the move. Vehicle dimensions from the original booking carry over and should be verified against the new space's constraints.


Cancelling a Reservation

  1. Open the reservation.

  2. Change the status to Cancelled via the Status field or three-dot menu.

  3. Confirm the cancellation.

Cancelled reservations are retained in the system for reporting and audit purposes.


Waitlist Reservations

If no space is available for the requested dates, staff can create a reservation in Waitlist status. When a space opens up, update the reservation with a space assignment and move it to Reserved or Confirmed status.


Viewing Reservation Invoices and Payments

From within a reservation, select the Transactions section to:

  • View all invoices tied to the reservation

  • See payment history

  • Generate new invoices manually
