The Recreation.gov website has an entirely new look with features
including simplified search capabilities, enhanced content and streamlined
Google maps. Visitors to the website can now do much more than make
reservations for camping, tours and tickets at federal facilities.
The Corps has almost 30,000 reservable campsites in Recreation.gov and
there is a wealth of information about Corps water resources
projects. More details on the new features added to the
Recreation.gov website may be found under the “New Look! New
Features!” Tab located at the top right hand corner of
Recreation.gov home page. We hope you take some time to explore the
new Recreation.gov website, and better yet, we hope you find some great
new places to get out and Explore Your America! http://www.recreation.gov
