Catch Kirby Cove openings before the Marin Headlands books out
Camp-Now watches Kirby Cove cancellations, can move a matching site into your Recreation.gov cart, and texts you so you can finish checkout before the cart window closes. Camp-Now is built for campers trying to land a site in the next 30 days, when cancellations are often the only real opening left.
Kirby Cove has tiny inventory and huge Bay Area demand, so the best dates often reopen briefly and disappear before manual searchers can finish checkout.
