Plan your stay

How far ahead to book Big Meadows Reservoir Campground (South Central Co)

For July weekends, book about 163 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 81 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	74 days ahead	143 days ahead	74 days ahead	129 days ahead
June	83 days ahead	148 days ahead	97 days ahead	153 days ahead
July	81 days ahead	163 days ahead	97 days ahead	168 days ahead
August	48 days ahead	144 days ahead	73 days ahead	166 days ahead
September	47 days ahead	138 days ahead	35 days ahead	98 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 (5,405 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.
