Instead of a first come, first serve basis, Washington State Parks are opening up same-day reservations at all reservable campgrounds.
Starting on March 24, campers have until 2 p.m. on the expected day of arrival to make a same-day reservation, WA State Parks announced.
After 2:30 p.m., unreserved sites will turn to a first come, first serve basis, State Parks said in a release.
The newly expanded reservations would not apply to vacation rentals, roofed accommodations, yurts, and day-use facilities.
Campers can visit washington.goingtocamp.com to make reservations or call 1-888-226-7688.
Washington State Parks says with the success of opening same-day reservations in September 2023, the program was expanded to 24 parks last year with 7,000 reservations made.
