The park is open year 'round!
New for 2009! Camping reservations are now made ONLINE. Navigate to our "Camping" page, and click on “Webervations online camping reservations” along the left side of the page (link will appear on March 18 at 9:00am PDT).
Due to staffing constraints, we can only take phone reservations from those people who do not have access to the internet, and only between 10:00 AM and noon PDT. With our online reservation system, you can make your reservation any time of the day or night, with no busy phone lines. It will really help us do our jobs so much better, if you can take advantage of this online booking system.
Remember, reservations can only be made between 5 and 90 days in advance of your arrival!
