It is WAY too hard to make a reservation. Let us reserve even earlier. And penalize folks for making a reservation and then canceling at the last minute.

I love Indian Boundary campground! We had a great site on the water and enjoyed the peaceful area. Some preteens invaded our spot on the first day but it was ideal from then on.
