Description of service

Some friends and I went camping at a National Park in California. It is hard to get reservations at this park, but a friend called right after someone else had canceled, so it worked out really well! The price was per night, and we could have up to 4 cars per campsite, although two of them had to be parked in a remote parking lot. We had six tents but a couple of them were one person tents, so they weren't very big. I was able to bring my dog as long as I kept him on leash and didn't let him go on any of the main hiking trails.


Review of Service

The campsite was very close to all the other campsites, but I knew going into it that it would be like that. For the most part, all the campers were extremely considerate, although some people did let their dog off leash, which was specifically against the rules. I am not afraid of dogs but I could see that if you were, that could be really scary.


Tips

Some campsites fill up really fast. If they don't have any spaces left, try asking if you can be put on a waiting list or keep calling to see if someone has canceled. It worked for us!
