Cancellation Inquiry Daily Quota & Best Practices
To ensure fair access and maintain site performance, BaseCamp limits each user to 200 cancellation inquiries per day. This prevents excessive server load and ensures that all members can benefit from the cancellation search feature.
Cancellations are updated between 5 AM and 12 AM (midnight), and with a 200-request limit, you can check at least 10 times per hour throughout these 19 hours - more than enough to stay informed without excessive refreshing.
Best Practices for Managing Your Daily Quota:
- Use the MyAlerts page - It's designed for efficiency and loads quickly. Bookmark it on your phone or setup a home screen shortcut to it on your mobile device for easy access.
- Refresh wisely - There is no need to check more than once every 3-5 minutes.
- Avoid browser refresh extensions or automation tools - These violate BaseCamp's terms-of-service and may result in account suspension.
For those tracking a specific campsite and dates, Reserve America allows unlimited page refreshes to check availability directly.
A counter at the bottom of the Cancellations and MyAlerts pages tracks your inquiries and resets at midnight. Most users will not reach this limit, but please plan your searches accordingly.

Notice Regarding BaseCamp Pro Add-on Refunds
You paid $12 for the Pro Add-on on .
The Pro Add-on was deactivated on August 17, 2025. Because your purchase was made more than 30 days prior to that date, it does not qualify for a refund under the Terms of Service you agreed to when signing up for Pro (see the bottom of the Terms of Service page for details).
That said, I want to be fair and keep our supporters happy. If you've had the Pro Add-on for 4 months or less and feel you received little or no value from it, please reach out for a possible partial refund.
To request this, email me at dave@campadk.com with the subject line: BaseCamp Pro Refund Request.
Deadline: Refund requests will only be processed if you contact us by December 17, 2025. No refunds will be issued after that date.
Be sure to include the email address linked to your BaseCamp subscription so I can locate your account.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the New York State Campsite Photos project.

Cancellation Alerts Help
The Cancellation Alert Feature provides you will easy access to user submitted cancellations of campsites at high occupancy state parks in New York (OPRHP and DEC). The focus at this time is on the period between May 16 and Columbus Day. Please note cancellations can get rebooked at any time! As well as campers posting their own cancellations they may also post their campsites to offer to other campers using the New Cancellation/Offer tab. The intent of offers is that someone can post them here and copy/paste the text on our Cancellations Facebook Group so you can communicate with them there via messenger to arrange a time for one to cancel the site and the other to rebook it for themself.
Be sure to join our NY State Campsite Cancellation Facebook Group to get notifications of new cancellations as well as keep up to date on all the improvements and plans for the website, or to ask questions about reservations and cancellations.
Booking a Cancellation
You will be automatically linked over to Reserve America to rebook this site. If all or some of the dates no longer show available then someone else simply was able to rebook the site before you. If none of the remaining dates are available than you are simply out of luck. This site, "New York State Campsite Photos" is in no way affiliated with the Reserve America reservation system.
More Than 14 Day Cancellations
This cancellation includes additional days of availability before and/or after a reservation that was cancelled and thus shows all additional sequential days now available. It does not mean someone was able to cancel so many days or that you can rebook all of those dates. Simply select up to 14 days you are interested in from the new availability.
