How far ahead to book Iron Lake

For July weekends, book about 160 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 67 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	66 days ahead	121 days ahead	100 days ahead	137 days ahead
June	81 days ahead	140 days ahead	77 days ahead	140 days ahead
July	67 days ahead	160 days ahead	71 days ahead	169 days ahead
August	56 days ahead	152 days ahead	64 days ahead	168 days ahead
September	44 days ahead	115 days ahead	41 days ahead	129 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 (1,273 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.
