Quiet, wooded sites · 3 reviews

“Peaceful and quiet. Beautiful surroundings. Sections of the long trail reachable within a short driving range. Coverage is scarce. Water pump has not been working throughout the season. ”

How far ahead to book Moosalamoo Campground

For June weekends, book about 75 days ahead. Three in four June Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 21 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

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 (1,922 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.
