### 4/5 — Clunky reservation process

*2026-08-23, version 4.26.0*

The reservation portion is kind of clunky and awkward for use you should be able to make multiple selections on an order instead of the rv is one and each stall is a selection.  And the map leaves a little to be desired.  Love the campground though

### 3/5 — Tuttle Creek State Park

*2026-07-28, version 4.26.0*

Facilities, beach and buildings are in poor repair and not as clean as they should be.

### 4/5 — Auto fill

*2026-07-24, version 4.26.0*

I just wish this site had a place where I could auto fill address, and your credit card,and things like that would make life easier for those of us on the road.

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-21, version 4.26.0*

Why is everything so d….n difficult. Especially my credit card info why can't you store my card info?

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-15, version 4.26.0*

Why is everything so d….n difficult. Especially my credit card info

### 2/5 — Glitches

*2026-07-10, version 4.26.0*

App has issues during checkout will glitch after inputing info then when you get to cart it will tell you that info is missing. Specially when booking multiple sites. Eventually it worked after a few tries and cart expires.

### 2/5 — Pay option

*2026-07-04, version 4.26.0*

You need Apple Pay to stream line the reservation process!

### 3/5 — Ads that are deceptive

*2026-07-02, version 4.26.0*

The app UI isn't great but functions, however the inclusion of advertisements that are deliberately lying to present themselves as simply part of managing your RA account is completely unacceptable. Considering how this app is often mandatory to reserve a campsite at state parks and therefore is going to have older people who aren't as internet scam savvy using it often, steps need to be made to remove any ad like this.

### 1/5 — Really need to save payment details

*2026-05-26, version 4.25.0*

I’m constantly having to track down a CC

### 1/5 — App stopped working

*2026-05-25, version 4.25.0*

App stopped working for several days now and link to support also fails to work.

### 1/5 — Junk no longer works

*2026-05-24, version 4.25.0*

This app no longer works, keep getting error code.  Cannot login.  I’ve used this for years. Very dissatisfied.

### 1/5 — It’s living in the past!

*2026-05-22, version 4.25.0*

It’s May 22 and RA thinks I have an upcoming March reservation. Then I get error 403 anytime I try to do something. I have the latest version according to the App Store. Is the app broken? I’ve used it successfully in the past.
Re-downloaded app and now I can’t even log in. Same 403 error.

### 3/5 — Incomplete app

*2026-05-13, version 4.25.0*

This app has improved but still won’t auto fill credit cards.

### 1/5 — App shows scam ads

*2026-05-12, version 4.25.0*

Why does an app for government services have ads anyway?? They displayed an ad (from a Google owned ad network) that was designed to look like part of the registration process. I’m a front end developer and past UI designer, and the registration/login page is laid out to feature an ads that are more prominent than the actual app content: links are bright yellow on a white background while the ad was cleverly looked more like a compel than the app’s own content. (The ads have a tiny, barely discernible icon denoting them.) How many people have been duped by this?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Difficult

*2026-08-20, version 4.26.0*

Very difficult to maneuver and book sites

### 1/5 — Make it Easier Please

*2026-08-20, version 4.26.0*

Very Difficult to book when on the water with poor WiFi. It would be much better to be able to set up an account with my billing information and payment information so that I’m not having to enter that information in each time I try to book a spot. No maps & no explanation of where the spots are! It’s 2026!!! it would not take much to upgrade to make this a little bit better!

### 1/5 — No refund received

*2026-06-09, version 4.25.0*

Got email of refund

### 1/5 — add on the main page that says confirm account

*2026-06-07, version 4.25.0*

i'm sure this app might be great but having an ad right on the front page after I login that says confirm your account and is actually for some stupid streaming service is absolutely terrible. You really need to fix that.  Ads like that should not be allowed.

### 1/5 — Kerr lake Hibernia campground

*2026-06-06, version 4.25.0*

Great place to go if you want the park rangers to harass you about music playing (pg rated ) for the kids swimming in the cove during normal daylight hours and be told you cannot have a generator running after 10 at night at 6pm in the afternoon. Also was informed that a fully trained service dog who is under control on an e collar and sitting underneath me apparently is not welcome because I did not have his leash in my hand but yet no complaints about the constant smell of marijuana coming from the next campsite over every 30 minutes. I guess if your buddy’s with the host and park rangers or on a rv site it’s ok but if you stay on a primitive site you should be expected to be treated like you don’t belong.

### 1/5 — 403 Forbidden

*2026-05-31, version 4.25.0*

could not get on website on two phones or laptops. down loaded app could not remember password. got 403 forbidden message trying to reset password. had to get friend to reset to make reservations

### 1/5 — Unusable - Bugs, errors, Impossible

*2026-05-30, version 4.25.0*

I genuinely do not understand the positive reviews. I spent way too much time trying to make a simple change to an existing reservation, and both the website and app were incredibly frustrating and impossible to use. The website is full of bugs and error messages, and the app often just redirects back to the website instead of letting you complete tasks.

I'm a UX designer and very comfortable with technology, yet I still have not been able to add a night to my reservation because I can't even view availability. The interface is confusing, availability is difficult to read, campsites are hard to compare, and nearly every click seems to lead to an error or dead end. What should have been a simple task was impossible to complete.

ReserveAmerica manages access to amazing parks and campgrounds, but this is one of the worst digital experiences I've encountered in a long time. The platform desperately needs bug fixes, USER TESTING, booking modernization, and a complete UX overhaul.

### 1/5 — This app sucks!!!

*2026-05-29, version 4.25.0*

I would give you a zero if that was an option!!! 
If you are camping somewhere that has a second option to book use that one! This is not user friendly! The number they list for customer service is even discounted!

### 1/5 — Camping

*2026-05-28, version 4.25.0*

Excellent app

### 1/5 — Ashley

*2026-05-26, version 4.25.0*

403 error message has started. Can’t get rid of it. Sorry I just have to get rid of app

### 5/5 — Wish you could do one night

*2026-08-13, version 4.26.0*

Wish there wasn't so many empty campground's

### 5/5 — Nice location

*2026-07-03, version 4.26.0*

Very near of shopping center 👌

### 5/5 — Easy to Use

*2026-06-10, version 4.25.0*

I enjoy using this website. It’s easy to use and understand. Makes for quick reservations. No complaints here!

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2026-06-04, version 4.25.0*

Even if it doesn’t cover every place, there usually is enough variety to satisfy my camping needs…

### 5/5 — App problems ongoing since yesterday !!

*2026-05-13, version 4.25.0*

I’ve been using this app for my reservations, but it has become very unreliable. It lags frequently, and since yesterday, I have been completely locked out by a "403 Forbidden" error. I have tried switching from Wi-Fi to cellular data and even deleted and reinstalled the app, but the error persists. Strangely, the website works fine on Chrome, so the issue is definitely with the app itself. Please fix these connection bugs!

### 5/5 — Reliable Camping Information

*2026-05-03, version 4.25.0*

Reserve America has always been reliable to find sites and have important park information. We have used RA for years.

### 5/5 — Easy Process

*2026-04-04, version 4.25.0*

I find using this app makes researching and reserving a campsite so easy and helps keep my camping dates organized for schedule reference.

### 5/5 — Favorite Park

*2026-02-26, version 4.24.0*

Easy process

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-02-16, version 4.24.0*

The app is convenient and easy
to navigate through different campsites.

### 5/5 — Camping reservation

*2025-12-31, version 4.22.0*

Reservations were simple & smooth, Love that I was able to get my favorite sites!
