campsite reservation

Outdoor lodging arrangement

A campsite reservation is an advance booking that secures a specific camping spot at a park or campground for particular dates.

Most public campgrounds release reservations months ahead, and popular sites fill quickly: I set an alarm to grab a campsite reservation the moment they opened.

The system prevents the old first-come, first-served scramble that left families circling full campgrounds.
