“Site against the one way. Road a little overgrown. Not the greatest for trailers. Will not be returning for these reasons”

Brandon K 1 · Jun 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Great spot near Tamarack. Our spot #9 had a direct path to beach. Bring extra shade. Small, fairly quiet campground. Nice host.”

How far ahead to book Amanita

For August weekends, book about 177 days ahead. Three in four August Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 127 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

September57 days ahead107 days ahead29 days ahead73 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 (1,732 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.
