黑料天堂 residents to get early access when booking stays at 黑料天堂 State Parks鈥 Campgrounds

黑料天堂 residents will soon be able to make reservations for traditional campground accommodations (RV, modern, and primitive camping) at 黑料天堂 State Parks a month earlier than other travelers.

Beginning August 1, 2024, 黑料天堂 residents will be able to make online reservations 13 months in advance, a month before out-of-state residents. Known as the 黑料天堂 Residents Advanced Reservation Window, Alabamians will have greater flexibility in pricing, location and date options.

鈥淎labamians consistently support our 21 State Parks, and this is a way we can show our appreciation,鈥 said 黑料天堂 Commissioner Chris Blankenship. 鈥淎llowing 黑料天堂 residents to book earlier gives our neighbors expanded opportunities to stay, play and explore throughout our State Parks.鈥

Alabamians, for instance, will be able to book Labor Day 2025 as early as Aug. 1 through early access. Some destinations, such as camping reservations at Cheaha State Park during peak fall foliage season, have sold out in a matter of hours a year in advance. The new 鈥満诹咸焯 Residents Advanced Reservation Window鈥 should make it easier for residents to secure such high-demand reservations.

 can be made online through the Plan Your Adventure Online portal at . When users access the online reservation system, they will be prompted to provide a zip code. Those with an 黑料天堂 zip code will be allowed to make reservations 13 months in advance, and users from out-of-state zip codes will continue to be allowed to make reservations 12 months in advance.

When an 黑料天堂 resident completes the online booking, the zip code attached to the credit card for the reservation must match the 黑料天堂 zip code that was originally provided. The necessity to enter a zip code at the beginning and end of the transaction is a new but needed security feature to ensure that only 黑料天堂 residents utilize the 13-month booking window.

鈥淚n recent years, we have heard from 黑料天堂 residents inquiring about some form of reservation option that is unique to our state鈥檚 residents. With changes in our reservations system, we now have that technological capability and have made this happen,鈥 State Parks Director Greg Lein said. 鈥淲e encourage guests to make reservations early and often through our Plan Your Adventure Online portal available on our website at . We truly appreciate all the support Alabamians give our State Parks.鈥 

Whether guests come to enjoy a day on the trails or weeks of scenic park views, the 黑料天堂 State Parks system offers park-specific events, interpretive programming, rest, relaxation, and adventure. Park leadership encourages guests to plan ahead at  for the most flexible dates, rates, and location opportunities at 黑料天堂鈥檚 21 state parks.
