Camping at Gillette Campground near Metaline Falls

Public campground · Metaline Falls · 29 campsites

A forested campground near hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Recreation centers on Gillette Lake swimming and boating are common in summer and the campground's immediate setting makes walking, bicycling and trail outings easy to plan. OHVs are permitted to drive into and out of the park, so the area serves both quiet campers and riders who need vehicular access; as always, follow posted trail and vehicle regulations.

How far ahead to book Gillette Campground

For May weekends, book about 130 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 72 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

September16 days ahead46 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 (1,432 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.
