• Users can review campgrounds and update or remove them too.
• User profiles show some details of the user (full name, email, phone, join date), their campgrounds, and the option to edit their profile or delete their account.
• Search campgrounds by their names and locations.
• Sort campgrounds by highest rating, most reviewed, lowest price, or highest price.
