I've only had to make a national park camping reservation twice in recent years.
The first time was for Yosemite National Park in 2015. It was for an April 2016 date and I had to wait for a specific date in the prior November for when reservations start. I camped at North Pines Campground in Yosemite Valley.
The second time was in 2017 for Trailer Village at the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. That was much easier to do, only a matter of days.
If one wonders how soon can make a national park camping reservation, Do It Yourself RV has posted an article on this subject.
They begin it with:
National park campsites can become available months before your trip, but when to book depends on the campground. Some release sites a day at a time, others open a month’s worth of dates together, and some hold campsites for reservations closer to arrival.
For RVers, timing is only part of the decision. You also need a site that fits your setup and a practical route to reach it. This guide brings those details together, park by park, so you can work out when to reserve and what to check before committing.
