I just tried to make reservations for a week in June at one of our favorite State Parks in SC. They have a 13 month window for reservations and I missed the boat for that week. The lady I spoke with at the Park Service was very nice, she told me to make reservations for June 2017 in May 2016!!!! I thought I was on the ball planning 6 months in advance! Nope.
I am going to guess that this is either Hunting Island or Edisto Beach. We have been making those 12-month in advance (it has now changed to 13-months) for years in order to get "up front" and close to the beach. Just keep trying, especially on Sunday evenings. That seems to be when most people cancel out their planned trips. Have some back-up plans if those don't come through or shorten your days that you want to stay there.
That is one of the few places that we do make reservations - we love it and so does most everybody else.
