Whether you're looking for a place to play or ready to share your own backyard, HOPSCOTCH makes it simple — for everyone.

For Guests
Yes. A parent or guardian stays on-site with the children for the entire booking — HOPSCOTCH spaces are private play spaces, not drop-off childcare.
Some hosts turn on Instant Book, so your booking is confirmed the moment you pay. Others review each request first — you'll see this on the listing before you book. If a host doesn't respond within 24 hours, your request expires and your card is never charged.
Each host picks a cancellation policy, shown on the listing before you book: Extra Flexible (full refund up to 4 hours before), Flexible (full refund up to 24 hours before), Moderate (full refund up to 3 days before) or Strict (50% refund up to 7 days before). The processing fee isn't refundable, unless the host cancels: then you're refunded in full. You can cancel anytime from your bookings page.
It depends on the listing — each one shows whether it's pet-free. If pet-free isn't listed as an amenity, ask the host before booking if that matters to you.
Hosts verify their identity through Stripe when they connect payouts after their first completed booking, and many also complete an optional background check, which earns a Background Checked badge you can filter for in Book a Space. Reviews are also blind until both sides have submitted theirs, so you're always reading honest feedback.
You can message your host directly from your booking, or report a problem afterward from your bookings page and our team will follow up.
For Hosts
Listing is free. HOPSCOTCH keeps a host fee of 20% of the booking price, and that's all that comes out of your earnings. Guests pay a separate 14% service fee and the processing fee on top. You always see your exact payout before a booking is confirmed.
Payments are processed through Stripe and paid out to your bank account once a month (on the 1st) after a short hold period — no chasing guests down, no cash. You can export your earnings as a CSV anytime from your payouts page.
No. Unless you've turned on Instant Book, every request comes to you first to approve or decline. You can also block a specific guest from booking or messaging you again if a visit doesn't go well.
Yes — set your weekly hours, block off individual dates with one tap on your calendar, and set a buffer between bookings so you always have time to reset the space.
If something happens, report it from the booking and our team will help sort it out.
Guests confirm they'll be present with their children for the whole booking and agree to your house rules at checkout. You can also require approval on every booking instead of Instant Book if you'd rather review who's coming first.
