Good Morning Hospitality

Live Oak Insights, RJourney's Big Refi, and the Shifting Landscape of RV Travel


Listen Later

On this episode of Good Morning Outdoors, Matt is joined by guest host Robert Preston, CEO of Climb Capital and Unhitched Management. With Alex out sick, Robert brings his extensive experience in outdoor hospitality to the table, offering valuable insights into the RV and campground industry.​


Matt Whitermore also shares his takeaways after attending the Live Oak Bank RV Symposium, including insights into industry valuation, lender appetite, and what makes RV parks more “investable” as an asset class. From the bank’s impressive campus to deep discussions on the future of outdoor hospitality, we compare the trajectory of RV parks to the hotel industry and explore what might lie ahead.


We also touch on Bolt Farm Treehouse’s unique approach, remember the legacy of Bud Steyer, and discuss a major refinancing move by Welcome to RJOURNEY across an 11-park portfolio.


In market trends, we break down the new GoRVing RV Owner Demographic Report and what it reveals about who's hitting the road in 2025. Plus, a spotlight on why more Canadians are choosing to stay put—and what that means for demand across North America.


A packed episode of stories, shifts, and strategies shaping the outdoor hospitality space—this week on Good Morning Outdoors!
