If the customer cancels after the scheduled arrival date the customer forfeits all usage fees for the time period already expired. Cancellations received after checkout time will result in the forfeiture of that day's usage fees for the campsite or facility. At no time will the customer be charged a cancellation fee that exceeds the amount originally paid. The IDPR or its reservation service provider may cancel a customer's reservation for insufficient payment of fees due. With the exception of the reservation service fees, all fees paid will be reimbursed at the time the reservation is cancelled. (3-18-22)

b. Park Board Designated Special Use Campsites and Facilities. A reservation service fee will be assessed for the cancellation of a reservation. If a cancellation for a group facility occurs twenty-one (21) or fewer calendar days prior to arrival, the customer forfeits the first night or daily facility usage fees (base rate). If a cancellation for a group facility occurs more than twenty-one (21) calendar days prior to arrival, a cancellation charge will be assessed. If the customer cancels after the arrival date the customer forfeits all usage fees for the time period already expired. Cancellations received after checkout time will result in the forfeiture of that day's usage fees for the campsite or facility. At no time will the customer be charged a cancellation fee that exceeds the amount originally paid. The department or its reservation service provider may cancel a customer's reservation for insufficient payment of fees due. An individual site cancellation fee applies to each campsite in a group campground. With the exception of the reservation service fees, all fees paid will be reimbursed at the time the reservation is cancelled. (3-18-22)
