Camp Strategy Founder Jeff Hoffman has been named to Modern Campground’s “25 Voices Shaping Outdoor Hospitality in 2026,” a roundup recognizing influential voices across the outdoor hospitality industry. The recognition was reported by Modern Campground on August 14, 2026.
The list arrives as outdoor hospitality continues to attract new capital and closer operational scrutiny, with campground and RV resort owners increasingly looking to leaders who have actually run the properties they now advise on.
About the List
- Originated on LinkedIn: The ranking was created by Mike Harrison, COO of CRR Hospitality, as an independent industry exercise rather than a formal award, inspired by similar “who’s who” lists in the broader hospitality sector.
- Measured across multiple signals: Honorees were selected for their influence across AI, media, and overall outdoor hospitality industry impact, rather than any single metric like follower count or revenue.
- Covered by Modern Campground: The full list of 25 names was published as an editorial feature on August 14, 2026, written by Modern Campground’s Sharah Ibrahim.
Jeff Hoffman: A Familiar Voice Among Campground Owners
Jeff’s entry on the list credits his standing to years spent actually running campgrounds and RV resorts, not just advising on them. Modern Campground’s write-up called him “a familiar voice among campground owners and operators.” Before joining Camp Strategy, Jeff Hoffman owned and operated top-tier franchised properties, including KOA and Jellystone Park campgrounds, alongside numerous independent RV resorts. That range, spanning national franchise systems and independent assets alike, is the same operator’s perspective Jeff Hoffman brings to every Camp Strategy engagement today.
