Reviews

Selected reviews

Verbatim from guest reviews on Recreation.gov ↗ (46 reviews, ★ 4.0). Not written or edited by us.

“Parking spot was not very level for the trailer - bring blocks. Good open site, smooth, ok for tents. Neighbors kept cutting through our site to go visit their friends on the other side of us. Close to a water spigot.”

How far ahead to book Stumpy Meadows

For May weekends, book about 110 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 62 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (4,572 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
