Camptown
Camptown is a small town located by the seaside in the foothills. A local train line runs through the town where the occasional train will stop at Camptown Station, allowing tourists and traveling merchants to visit. The shopping district is located on Main Street, just across the tracks and up the hill. On Main Street, several shops are open for business, including Nook's Homes, The Able Sisters, Nookling Junction, and the Happy Home Showcase. In addition, the Post Office can be found here alongside several buildings that remain shuttered and vacant. At the end of the street sits the newly-opened Camptown Museum, managed by Blathers the curator. Re-Tail is another shop in Camptown, run by married couple Reese and Cyrus. While not on Main Street, the recycle shop can be found near the town hall and town plaza. On the eastern edge of town is the local campground, accessible by a dirt road that allows for visitors to park their campers at the campground and visit town. A new resident by the name of Kevin recently moved into town and began his job as mayor, working alongside his secretary, Isabelle, to help Camptown grow into a developed town with a thriving population. Since his debut as mayor, the town has begun a journey of growth and development, with the construction of a bench by the beachside cliffs, a fountain by the town hall, a cobblestone bridge, a fire hydrant, a suspension bridge by the waterfall, a freshwater well, a park clock, a lighthouse, and several street lamps around town to improve visibility at night. Main Street saw economic development which benefited the growth of Camptown and saw the opening of a garden shop managed by Leif, the Dream Suite overseen by Luna, Club LOL run by Shrunk and DJ K.K., and a shoe store owned by Kicks. Additionally, the Camptown Museum was expanded to include a second floor, home to the gift shop and several exhibit rooms, and a police station was built near the beachside cliffs.

Tortimer Island
The Camptown Chamber of Commerce developed a partnership with Tortimer Island, which is run by the town's former mayor, Tortimer. The trade agreement aims to drive tourism to the resort island known for its extravagant tours and in return export fish, insects, and fruit harvested from the island archipelago to Camptown, in addition to renting out the dock to the island's shuttle boat. On Tortimer Island is the tour office where guests may arrange transportation with Kapp'n, place reservations with Leilani for tours that are operated by Tortimer, or browse the gift shop that is run by Grams. Outside is a beach with palm trees and access to the waters to fish or dive.

Former Residents
The following are former residents of Camptown, having moved away to a new village.

Pocket Camp
In the mountains is a popular campsite frequented by a number of tourists and is run by Isabelle, who serves as the assistant manager of the campsite. The campsite manager is a young man named Charlie and has recently taken over operations of the campsite, as he manages the layout of the campgrounds as well as the available amenities to guests. He also maintains the nearby flower gardens and works to fulfill requests in order to approve the applications of incoming campers. Since then, a number of tourists have visited the campsite, though only 8 campers may reside at the campsite at any given time. This exclusivity has positively impacted the campsite's brand as flocks of tourists have visited the region with hopes of being invited to visit the campsite and join its membership list.

In addition to the campsite run by Charlie and Isabelle, there are several destinations popular among tourists, with many setting up tents or parking their campers, including Lost Lure Creek, Sunburst Island, Saltwater Shores, and Breezy Hollow. After the campsite saw tremendous growth, Isabelle and Charlie opened up a cabin as more lodging for tourists visiting the mountains. Since its opening, the cabin has undergone renovations and re-opened as a cafe, complete with a coffee counter and dining room, as well as a lounge with a stage for live musical performances.

West of the campsite is the marketplace, which is an outdoor shopping plaza with a rotating selection of vendors where tourists can browse the wares available for sale that day. Taking advantage of the business boom are Timmy and Tommy of Nookling Global, Mable and Sable of Able Sisters To Go, and Kicks of Kicks. When not welcoming guests at the campsite, Isabelle can be found at the marketplace where she set up a tent as an office to meet with guests and process paperwork.

To the north are additional businesses beneficial to tourists and the campsite management alike. OK Motors, an auto garage specializing in camper customization, is run by a trio of ravens named Giovanni, Carlo, and Beppe. They are able to expand the interior of campers as well as provide a variety of paint jobs. The local branch of the Happy Home Academy allows for members to present their interior design skills and earn medals in each class to advance through the ranks of the academy. The Shovelstrike Quarry is full of ore that visitors may mine and exchange for crafting materials and bells, depending on the rarity of the gems dug up.
