Loved having the loop for our group. Too much thru traffic that wasn’t in our group. Camp grounds needs fixing up. Disappointed with conditions.

I would like to start with the POSITIVE. The Group site was AWESOME! Well laid out and we had a great time. What I didn't appreciate was the staff drawing a HARD LINE about not letting us in early...claiming the "cleaning crew" needed time to finish and they had had issues in the past with letting people in early. There was NO ONE cleaning anytime even NEAR to the check-in time at 4pm. We were made to wait in a line with our RVs in 90 degree weather for 1-2 hours...until AFTER 4pm...we had to CALL to see where the ranger was to let us in...and, I believe due to our phone call, he arrived at 4:05pm. THEN, the very next morning we were awoken at 630am by a staff member WEED WACKING in the Group site. This is unacceptable. In my opinion, even HOTELS will let you check in early if the cleaning crew confirms they are done. And, they certainly don't start vacuuming IN or NEAR your ROOM at 630am! Again, lovely park. lovely Group site, and we had a great time, but...these were definitely annoyances.

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
