Phone before you drive

recreation.gov publishes no availability for a campground you can’t reserve, so there’s no thirty-night reading to draw here. The season bar above is what the agency does publish.

Booking window6 months outBooking opens 6 months ahead; today unlocks arrivals through April 17, 2027. The agency publishes no reservable season in the record we hold, so the window may close earlier than that.recreation.gov

What this campground addsits own record
Extra vehicle$5

“An additional $5 "per extra vehicle" fee will be charged for each vehicle exceeding the maximum two vehicle per site allowance.” · the U.S. Forest Service’s own fee record

What a stay costs
One night, fromDerived$8
A weekend, Friday and Saturday, fromDerived$16

Derived by CAMPANAC: the lowest per-night amount the agency’s fee record states ($8), and no booking fee, because this campground takes no reservations. A weekend here means Friday and Saturday night. Optional charges (an extra vehicle, a second tent, a dump-station fee) are listed separately and aren’t in this total.
