Creating a scan to alert you of an opening at a park/campground is easy. We walk you through the process step-by-step and once your scan is created, you can edits are simple, too.
Once you are logged into the website, click the Create a Scan link in the top menu.
Searching for a Campground
Click in the box that says "Search Campgrounds" and begin typing in a desired park or campground to scan.
For example, type in Yellowstone. Then choose the park from the list that pops under the search box. Please note: You can scroll down in the list that pops under the box to locate other parks/campgrounds that have the word "Yellowstone" in their name.
The next screen begins our guided selection for filtering your search in the Park you have chosen. Notice that the park is displayed at the top of this screen and can be edited by clicking the edit button to the right. The park for your scan can be edited while you are creating the scan, but cannot be edited once the scan is created.
Setting your Scan Filters
The first filter for your scan is selecting the campgrounds within your chosen park in which you would like to stay. If the park has multiple campgrounds, you can select up to 5 campgrounds or areas within that park to be included in this one scan. Make your selection and click the green Next button at the bottom.
The second filter options for you are ADA, vehicle length, and type of site. Please note: You can choose "any vehicle length" in the Vehicle Length field and "any site type" in the Site Type field for the widest scan. Make your selections and click the green Next button at the bottom.
The third filter option allows you to choose your desired arrival date. We do allow you to toggle on the Flexible Date feature which will expand your date selection to the day before and the day after your primary desired arrival date. Make your selections and click the green Next button at the bottom.
The last filter option allows you to specify the number of days you would like to stay at your campsite. Make your selections and click the green Create Scan button at the bottom to finalize your scan.
