just booked labor day (and got a site)

I thought the provincial parks closed the Thanskgiving weekend? That's the case at the one we usually go to for Oct (Voyageur).

Wheatley provincial park (one of our close to home go to parks for weekending) we are capped at 5 months out so no extremely long bookings but 4 weeks is a steal. not so lucky booking thanksgiving but no big deal. turkey is easier at home anyway and we are going the weekend after

We booked last Labor Day to get a site for this Labor Day

Wow! We start booking in January for most of our extended summer trips out of the area.

Local county parks by us (that we do on weekends) have a 90 day out max window to book and you have to be online clicking like a crazy person exactly at 7pm to get an electric site and the date you want. Its like trying to get a Southwest "A" seat but worse.

We landed a few nights for this week only two weeks ago bc we said "lets just check" and whaddaya know?! There must have been a cancellation!

Cant hurt to try right?

That's awesome. Congrats! What campground will you be enjoying yourselves at?

Congrats, the universe is smiling on you. I booked at the end of May and considered myself luckily that there was still a spot for that weekend.
