How far ahead to book Lakeside (Truckee)

For May weekends, book about 169 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 119 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

See booking patterns

Arrival month	Fri/Sat arrivals: half booked at least	A quarter at least	Other days: half booked at least	A quarter at least
May	119 days ahead	169 days ahead	59 days ahead	131 days ahead
June	71 days ahead	147 days ahead	72 days ahead	159 days ahead
July	52 days ahead	144 days ahead	40 days ahead	154 days ahead
August	46 days ahead	109 days ahead	32 days ahead	113 days ahead
September	25 days ahead	67 days ahead	27 days ahead	65 days ahead
October	22 days ahead	41 days ahead	20 days ahead	95 days ahead

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 (9,562 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.
