Online Payments
In an effort to serve the public better, the Parks Department began accepting Online Reservation Requests and Payments (credit/debit card or electronic check, also known as eChecks) for County Park Shelters and Campsites.
YOU WILL NEED TO USE INTERNET EXPLORER OR MAKE SURE YOUR POP-UP BLOCKER IS DISABLED IN GOOGLE CHROME IF CHOOSING TO PAY ONLINE BY CREDIT/DEBIT CARD OR eCHECK.
Please Note: Submitting payment Online does NOT confirm a reservation request. You must also have completed and submitted the Online Reservation Request Form. If your request has been submitted successfully you will receive a confirmation statement on the screen AND you will receive an email notifying you that we have received your reservation request and will process it within 1-2 business days. Once we have verified receipt of your payment and can match it to a pending reservation you will be sent another email confirming your reservation with specific details.
