Coastal state beaches & county parks — all in one alert service.
21 California parks. One simple email when a spot opens.
The struggle is real
California's best campsites — state beaches and county parks — vanish the moment they open. Refreshing the page all day isn't a strategy — it's a full-time job.
Parks like Leo Carrillo, Jalama Beach & Doheny book up within minutes of opening — sometimes months in advance.
Cancellations happen daily — but you'd have to be glued to the website 24/7 to catch them.
A spot opens, someone else books it in seconds. You find out hours later. Too late.

Paying for:
Monitoring service only. CampSiteAlert checks availability on your behalf. We do not book campsites for you. When we alert you, you must complete the booking yourself directly on the park booking website.
No availability guarantee. CampSiteAlert monitors availability only — not a reservation service. If no campsite opens during your monitoring period, your alert expires automatically. No spot found = no refund.
Checks are periodic, not instant. We check every 5–15 minutes depending on how close your arrival date is. A spot may open and be booked by someone else before your alert is sent.
Independent service. CampSiteAlert is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to California State Parks, ReserveCalifornia, or any county park system in any way.
Limitation of liability. CampSiteAlert is not liable for any missed bookings, losses, or damages resulting from service interruptions, delays, or technical issues beyond our control.
Service availability. CampSiteAlert reserves the right to modify or discontinue the service at any time without notice.
