Outdoorsy, an outdoor travel marketplace, surpassed 1 million trips – or 7 million booked travel days – spent outdoors since the company was founded in 2015. The milestone comes on the heels of the company being recognized as one of Fast Company’s ‘Most Innovative Companies in Travel and Hospitality’ for 2023.

According to Outdoorsy CMO and Co-Founder Jen Young, “Our team takes enormous pride in these 1 million trips and the lifelong memories made through our platform — and we are working hard to provide our customers with new ways to create millions more. This milestone is also powerful proof that travelers are prioritizing time in the outdoors as 2023 looks to be a record year for us and the travel industry. It is also a fulfillment of our mission to restore our relationship with the outdoors and each other.”

An Irvine, California-based family of four – Floris Gierman, his wife, Jennifer, and their daughters, Sadie and Zoey – made the 1 millionth Outdoorsy booking. The Gierman’s RV trip is being hosted by Outdoorsy RV owner Marisol Hill, who started listing one RV on Outdoorsy in 2019. Hill since expanded her business to eight RV listings, completed over 400 bookings, and earned more than $500K in revenue from Outdoorsy rentals.

Outdoorsy will be covering the cost of the family’s RV trip to Joshua Tree National Park and Grand Canyon National Park.

“Our daughter Sadie learned about the Grand Canyon in the fourth grade,” said Jennifer Gierman. “and her dad showed her some photos and videos of him running in the canyon from a past work trip – she found it fascinating, so we wanted to take a trip there to show her in person how incredible it actually is.”

Outdoorsy exceeded $2 billion in transactions in October 2022. The highest-earning host has surpassed $4.8M on Outdoorsy.com.
