I already have that site in my favorites.  I keep checking to see if Yosemite has cancellations.

I made my Grand Canyon reservations on it a few weeks ago. It worked pretty good.

This site took over reserve America about a year ago.
Personally I find the new site hard to navigate.
I had reservations with RA which did not show on rec.gov making things confusing for a while.
My wife misread the specs. on a camp site the other day. The way it was writen she thought it was an electric site when in fact it was not. Rec.gov did cancel the reservation for her without penalty however.

Actually Reserve America runs Recreation.gov, as of February I believe.  But the 2 sites are still separate

Dcamp...you are correct. I googled "reserve america" and found the site.
Snooping around I see the format is nearly the same as rec.gov.

I got an email some time ago from one of the two saying there would be a change. It seems for awhile RA was shut down because I could not confirm a reservation I had.

It now seems the two are interchangable.


hmmmm...I just logged into RA using my rec.gov password, clicked on my reservations and the ones I made through rec.gov show on RA.

Good to hear they interchange now. Gave me a scare one time trying to confirm my July 4th ressies.
