How far ahead to book Bandy Creek

For September weekends, book about 88 days ahead. Three in four September Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 33 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival month	Fri/Sat arrivals: half booked at least	A quarter at least	Other days: half booked at least	A quarter at least
January	4 days ahead	12 days ahead	2 days ahead	9 days ahead
February	6 days ahead	23 days ahead	2 days ahead	7 days ahead

November	19 days ahead	47 days ahead	25 days ahead	81 days ahead
December	7 days ahead	24 days ahead	3 days ahead	18 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 (40,487 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.
