I’ve switched over to using Hipcamp because I got so frustrated trying to hit “Reserve” right at 7am for a campground 6 months from now and not being able to get it. It’s taken so much of the joy and spontaneity out of camping for me, and with a young child I’m also not willing to do first come first serve when I’m 2-3 hrs from home.

Anyways, I feel your pain. I don’t know how to get a campsite anymore without learning how to code and writing a bot. Camping has become a competitive sport.
