Reserve America - Things learned
We've used Reserve America numerous times for reservations without issue. I learned some things today. This is not a complaint, but some things that I wanted to pass on that I never dealt with before....

We have seen this before. Normally we stay away from RA as they tend to over charge for the site. Not talking about the reservation fee; talking about they had the wrong price. We use recreation.gov for federal sites the few times a year we make a reservation. Have had sites reserved out from under us with recreation.gov so none of the reservation systems are perfect.
Recreation.gov - once you place the site in your cart, it will hold the site for approximately 15 minutes. If you don't complete the reservation within that time, it will release it. That's a fair system - you don't get to block a site (or multiple sites) for an unlimited amount of time. But you have plenty of time to get through the reservation process once you pick your site.
