Where do I book a BC Parks campsite after an alert?
Book through the official BC Parks reservation service. OpenCampsite only notifies you about a matching opening; it does not hold the campsite or complete the reservation.
Provider Coverage
BC Parks campsite cancellation alerts
Yes. OpenCampsite watches supported BC Parks campgrounds for openings on your dates. We send a notice when a check finds a match. You book on the official BC Parks reservation site. The alert does not hold the campsite.
Alerts are available for 140 locations here — we watch for cancellations and new openings around the clock.
How BC Parks availability alerts work
- Frontcountry reservations open three months before arrival at 7 a.m. Pacific. Some campsites are first come, first served. Check the park page to see which sites you can reserve.
- Frontcountry refund amounts depend on notice. Camping fees are refunded when you cancel more than seven days before arrival. Closer to arrival, a first-night fee is deducted. Transaction fees are not refunded. Check the current cancellation rules before changing a trip.

When do BC Parks frontcountry reservations open?
BC Parks says a frontcountry stay can be reserved up to three months before arrival, with a new arrival date opening at 7 a.m. Pacific each day. Some campsites remain first come, first served, so check the individual park page.
Does a BC Parks availability alert guarantee a campsite?
No. An alert means matching inventory appeared during a check. Availability can change quickly, so confirm the current status and complete the booking on the official BC Parks reservation service.
