Hercules - Online Reservations Processing and Booking Engine

In the spirit of innovative leadership over six years ago Leisure Interactive (formerly Friend Communications) launched the first real-time online reservation system for the campground and outdoor hospitality industry - ReservationFriend. Today, ReservationFriend has been re-innovated and has been re named the Hercules booking engine.  It is the largest online private campground reservation system in North America. Serving as the online reservation booking engine for over 1,000 campground websites. Hercules then syndicates the campground directory and reservation information to over 30 camping and RVing lifestyle portals to make the reservation processing available wherever the consumer may be. ReservationFriend pages generate more than 2 million page views each month. Leisure continues the innovation tradition by launching a completely revitalized web 2.0 front office and property management system - Hercules™. The Hercules booking engine has been completely rebuilt to take full advantage of the latest technology and integrate seamlessly with Hercules.

Take online reservations even when you are closed!

Today’s RV park and campground owners and operators are constantly seeking new tools that will help them:

		Reach more campers
		Increase reservations
		Decrease operating costs

Leisure Interactive's online software helps meet all of these needs! As the fastest growing online reservation-generating system in the industry, Hercules is used by more than 1000 parks, as well as state and national campground associations and leading RV rental companies.

Most importantly, it caters to the needs of today’s “convenience minded” campers. These campers increasingly go online seeking information about outdoor recreation vacations to identify local activities, and to make online reservations on “their schedule” – primarily after hours, when you are closed!
