Campamento is known for its large pine forests, which are harvested and processed in local lumber mills.

Near the eastern edge of Campamento, along the Rio Guayape, is a large fish farm that raises Tilapias for export.

The center of the town of Campamento has two small hotels, several restaurants, shops, supermarkets, and a post office.
