Park managers
Team Outsider (Land Lease America Hospitality)
Team Outsider is a camping company that buys and operates campgrounds and RV resorts, several of them KOA franchises. It states that it buys and grows businesses, and it invites owners to sell it their campground.
The parks are run by the company itself rather than managed for outside owners. A home office team exists to serve Operating Partners and on-site team members. Amenities vary by location and include full hook-up RV spaces, cabins, tent sites, swimming pools and lakes, mini golf, game rooms, bike rentals, outdoor movies, and themed weekends.
The company purchased its first campground in 2017 in Dubois, Wyoming, east of Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. It now lists parks in Ohio, New York, Michigan, Kentucky, Wyoming, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, and credits a team of 300+ people.
The site publishes no headquarters address, phone number, or fee-management offering. An owner who wants a third party to run a park they keep owning should confirm whether that is available before making contact.
Best for
Campground and RV park owners who want to sell to an operator that will keep running the park. Not a fee-based third-party manager for owners who intend to keep title.
What they do
- Campground and RV resort acquisition
- Owner-operated campground operations
- KOA franchise park operations
