CampingPitch

CampingPitch is an Accommodation subtype for an individual outdoor camping spot: a tent site, an RV pad, a lean-to, a glamping platform. It adds no properties of its own. CampingPitch is typically nested inside a Campground entity (which extends LodgingBusiness via CivicStructure). The campground holds property-level information; each CampingPitch is a bookable site within it.

The type hierarchy is Thing → Place → Accommodation → CampingPitch. Accommodation properties apply through inheritance: occupancy, amenityFeature, petsAllowed. For a complete property walkthrough, see the Accommodation example. Replace the @type with CampingPitch and add containedInPlace pointing to the parent Campground.

Common CampingPitch mistakes

Mistakes that pass validation but silently fail to earn rich results or mislead consumers walking the graph. Avoid these and your markup will be ahead of most sites in the wild.

  1. 01

    Using CampingPitch for the whole campground

    Wrong
    "@type": "CampingPitch" for a campground property listing
    Right
    "@type": "Campground" for the property; CampingPitch for individual sites

    CampingPitch is one site, not the whole campground. Use Campground (a CivicStructure / LodgingBusiness) for the property and CampingPitch for individual bookable sites within it. Build the relationship with containedInPlace.
