Is Rincon Parkway, Ventura CA starting reservations?

Can't wait to make a reservation and be assured a site. :)

Well, maybe. Those locals may just continue occupying spaces in the hope you won't show up. And, someone is going to have to be there 24/7 to enforce this. And why? Because of cheating and greed.

Here is the agenda from last Tuesday's Board of Supervisors meeting. Look at archived agendas for Sept 18, 2018 item 24.

Well that stuff is a real pita to wade through.

Probably more to come tomorrow, another meeting.

Thanks Dave..Hope it all goes in our favor. We have only been camped on Rincon once and loved it. Out Very good friends Camp Host at the SP that has been closed for yrs. and reopened. Things might be looking up :)

So I guess the reservation system is now set up for Nov 1. But you can now make reservations up to a year in advance. Read their cancellation policy, it HORRIBLE! 45 days prior Full refund of campsite fee , but you forfeit reservation fee. 44-15 days prior you lose 1/2 of site fee and forfeit fee and you lose it all if you cancel less than 15 days. So if it rains and is windy, too bad!

There are always those few cheats and scoundrels among us who, by their inconsiderate actions, force rules and regulations upon us.

Isn't that the truth!

I heard that once you arrive, you must go to the old posts and take a registration card and fill it out including confirmation number which you got online when reserving and put it in your drivers side window as before. Check in and out is 11 am. You can go and take an open site after 11am only by checking online if it's not reserved and then pay online. No cash or checks anymore.
I hope all those folks hogging the sites in the 60's and holding them for friends are happy!

I hope you all understand that there is still wiggle room for playing the game. Folks will be making reservation 12 months in advance and cancelling at the last moment and the local will know when a vacancy is coming up. The game continues.

Passed by yesterday and it was packed
