When sites open
Recreation.gov releases most national park campsites six months before the arrival date, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. Windows are set per campground, so confirm yours on the Seasons and Fees tab on that campground page.
Work backwards from your arrival date and be logged in before the release minute. A named campground above is the rule for that campground only — do not apply it to the rest of the park.
Getting a site after it sells out
Far more sites are booked than used. Cancellations cluster in the two weeks before arrival and again when the free-cancellation deadline passes, and midweek nights churn much more than weekends.
Refreshing by hand rarely works — openings are gone in minutes. Parks Manager can watch your dates and tell you the moment something frees up.
