“Beautiful campground. Eastern Kentucky was hit by a flash flood. No one came around to warn us of the impending disaster. I haven't been able to get to my car or equipment for 2 weeks due to the campground flooding. There needs to be better disaster management at this site.”

Jill S 2 · Aug 2022 · Recreation.gov

How far ahead to book Littcarr Campground

For May weekends, book about 90 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 22 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 (6,985 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.
