HEY! Save Me A Spot!

We sure will.  Using the Saskatchewan Provincial Parks Reserve-a-Site program allows you the security of knowing, before you ever leave home, that a site is waiting for you.  The 2009 Reserve-a-Site program began accepting reservations at 12:00:01 a.m. on January 1, 2009 and each park processes the applications in the order in which they are received.

Carefully read the information below before you complete your online reservation form.

New for 2009

  • Saskatchewan Landing Maximum Night Campground Stay Pilot Project – This pilot project designates 54 campsites that have been recently upgraded to electric as maximum-stay sites in Sagebrush Campground.  Campers who register in these designated sites are limited to maximum stays of 14-consecutive-nights during the peak camping season of Wednesday, June 24 through to Monday, September 7, 2009.
  • The non-refundable reservation fee is $10.00. 
  • One Reserve-a-Site request per form.  Additional reservation requests, using the comments section of the online form, will not be accepted.
  • Once the park has received your reservation request, you will be notified within 10 to 15 business days as to whether or not the park is able to accommodate your request.  If successful and to confirm your site, payment of the non-refundable reservation fee and minimum booking is required at this time to guarantee your site.
  • For each change a customer initiates to a guaranteed reservation, the change fee of $7.00 will be applied.
  • Reserve-a-Site check-in time is 2 p.m. and check out time is 12 noon.

About Reserve-a-Site

When booking your reservation there is a consistent minimum number of nights stay you must book.  The minimum booking is three nights for holiday long weekends (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and a minimum two nights booking for any other time.  If your holiday plans are last minute, all parks, including those that offer the reserve a site service, will try to accommodate you with sites available on a first come, first serve basis.

To reserve a site, apply directly to the park you are interested in.  Once your site is confirmed available and payment for the non-refundable reservation fee and minimum booking requirement is made, you will receive a confirmation notice from the park.  Please remember that, while park staff does their best to fulfill your requests, we do not accept bookings for specific campsites or specific areas of the campground.

You should book the entire length of your stay when making your reservation request.  The option to extend your reservation upon arrival at the park may not be available.  When phoning to reserve your site, please know the dates of your stay and type and length of unit.

Guaranteeing Your Reservation

All reservations must be guaranteed with a credit card, cheque or money order.  Within 10 to 15 business days after receiving your reservation request, the park will contact you to confirm your reservation and, at that time, will ask for your credit card information.  Please do not send any credit card information online, in the mail or by fax.

Reserve-a-Site Fees

Reserve-a-Site fees include a non-refundable reservation fee and camping fees for the required minimum number of nights of your reservation.  For example, if you request a reservation for seven nights (no long weekend), the reservation fee and the first two nights of the camping fees will be charged to your credit card prior to your arrival at the park.  The remaining five nights of camping fees must be paid in full when you arrive at the park.  Entry fees are not included and are over and above your camping fees.

The following fees for the Saskatchewan provincial park system are as of January 1, 2009.  Fees are reviewed annually and subject to change prior to the next operating season.

When you book a site using the Reserve-a-Site service, the following fees apply (the non-refundable change fee will be charged for each date change request, initiated by a customer, on a guaranteed reservation).

Cancellation

You may cancel your reservation through phone or email to the park in which your reservation was made at.  There are three categories of cancelling that will determine the amount of your refund.

  1. If your reservation is cancelled 48 hours prior to noon on the first day of your reservation you will receive a full refund of your camping fees.  These fees can only be refunded to the credit card used in the original transaction.  No exceptions.  The non-refundable reservation fee will not be refunded.
  2. If your cancellation is received less than 48 hours prior to noon on the first day of your reservation, the first night's camping and non-refundable reservation fee are not refunded.
  3. If the reservation is not cancelled, a site will be held until noon of the second day of the reservation at which time the site will be released and you will not receive a refund.
