- Once logged-in, click on the "MENU" tab and select "YOUR RESERVATIONS"

No-Show & Late Arrivals
A reservation becomes a no-show if you have not checked-in or cancelled by noon of the day following your reserved arrival date. All fees and charges (to a maximum of three nights) will be forfeited when your reservation turns to no-show. If you arrive after dusk and the entrance gates are closed, you may still enter the park by opening and closing the gate. Be sure to register in the morning to avoid no-show.
The above cancellation and change policies apply to one-time event rentals. Recurring/business rentals are subject to policies as outlined in their contract or permit.

Changes
Shelter reservation changes can be made online or by submitted a request in writing. A transaction (change) fee, plus any applicable charge (e.g. upgrade or additional day), is assessed for each changed shelter. This balance must be collected before the change can take effect, so written requests, please contact the Call Center at 425-388-6600 if you do not receive a follow-up call in a timely manner.
Changes must meet the criteria below so not all requests can be honored. Date changes, requested less than 14 days prior to check-in date, will be processed as a cancellation/re-booking (with all applicable fees).
Change criteria:
- Changes cannot transfer to another park
- Facilities cannot be transferred to another person/party
- Date changes must be requested at least 14 nights prior to check-in
Refunds
- Picnic shelters must be cancelled at least 14 days prior to arrival date to receive a refund.
- The original reservation transaction fee and a cancellation fee will be deducted for each site cancelled. See Fees & Prices for the latest rates.
- No refunds for picnic shelter cancellations less than 14 days out. No exceptions.
No-Show & Late Arrivals
With exception to the shelters at Willis Tucker Park (or otherwise stipulated), picnic shelter reservations are for the entire day, which is 7:00 AM to approximately 30 minutes prior to sundown. Renters are highly encouraged to occupy their shelter by 11:00 AM, which ensures their guests find a parking space, and avoids the perception the shelter was "abandoned". If you do arrive late, be sure to bring a copy of your permit, just in case the shelter is occupied when you arrive.
