its about time

I take it you talking about Ontario ?

BC it’s a maximum length of stay of 14 nights, and has been fir years.

It will give more people the opportunity to get a site, as long as they enforce it, don't be like your cousins to the south, most of our Federal and State parks have a 14 day limit, unfortunately many times it's not enforced, or looped around, by playing the name game, this time, the site is reserved in hubby's name, next 14 days is reserved in wifey's name.

Is it legal to rotate from name to name. I mean if they had a rule against it they would stop it wouldn’t they? If you are saying it’s a moral issue we have to realize that it’s 2022 lol. There are people in here that think that someone driving the speed limit is a nuisance and they should be driving with the flow of traffic even if it’s speeding Selective rules or morals I guess

and is that is per year not per stay.

"may only camp up to a maximum of 14 nights in each park/calendar year."

I wonder if it ever gets enforced though

I noticed Algonquin Provincial Park was reduced to a 7 day minimum

Years ago I tried booking that place right at 9am when the window opened, tried for 3 days straight, could not reserve any available site . It seemed the locals have quicker keypad fingers than me...

Later in the week I noticed a cancellation had showed up which I grabbed quickly. Beautiful park, NOT easy to book..

Not necessarily, a lot of written rules aren't enforced at many CG's.

I contend its not legal to change names. If pk has 10 day limit after 10 days that RV must leave.... Changing names is not leaving.

That would make sense, Again, IF it's enforced.

Yes it is a beautiful park, at nearly 3,000 square miles its tha largest vehicle accessible park in Ontario, hopefully if you decide to visit it again you'll be able to get a site just a tiny bit easier, 7 am (park time) is the date change time, so have all your info entered by 6:58, and booking from a tuesday or wednesday in a busy park usually gets you the best odds as most people start vacations on fridays or saturdays.
If you coming from a distance try one of the lesser known parks way up north,( whats an extra few hours on the road if your already driving 10 or more), they are just as beautiful but don't get as many of the weekend warriors from southern ontario, like myself a lot of folks won't do a 5 hour or more drive for a 2 or 3 day stay, and a lot of bookings occur on weekends for 2 to 3 days/nights.

actually I think it was 7am, this was some years ago and I am getting forgetful. I had 3 reserve windowns open with all the info entered. When the "reservation system time" showed the correct time I clicked reserve on all 3 windows and still I lost the reservations, repeated the same the next 2 mornings, same result. I think this was also the week day.

I Hope to be exploring the area again in the years to come :C
