- Description:
- This study reviews campsite choice research for common attributes that people use to choose campsites. A typology is developed that breaks down site attributes into three categories: necessity attributes (those that are necessary for providing a minimum quality camping experience), experience attributes (those that relate most closely with the preferred experience outcomes desired by recreationists), and amenity attributes (those that are least important to overall campsite choice, but may help in making the final decision). From this typology, a model was developed as a guideline for campsite choice.
