FYI, they take your money out of your account the day you make the reservation. So if you are reserved out 8 months, they will have your money all those months. This is not like a hotel reservation where they take the money out when you show up. Makes it hard for me to reserve sites for my 5 months of travel. I would always go to our parks during that travel time. I guess that will change now. Sad, I really love our parks.
