“Very quiet in the campground.”

Danielle T ★ 3 · Jul 2025
I was very disappointed in the information and picture given for reserving sites. I reserved what I thought would be a good site for us and our small camper and it was a terrible site. We ended up taking a different one and my sister used the one I reserved. We had a group of about 40 with us and this happened to two other people who reserved sites as well. Either make them all reservable or all first come first get. Or provide much better pictures and descriptions of sites that are reservable.

Nice quiet campground. We were able to get cell service lakeside, but not in the lower part of the campground. Our campsite has very uneven terrain. Very sloped and hilly. Large, spacious site. But it’s uneven terrain makes it difficult to park more than one vehicle, walk around or set lawn chairs leveled and sturdy around the fire pit.

Our campsite was spacious and large. There were a few inconveniences with it. First, it’s on a hill so it slopes down toward the lake. The camper pad was flat. The tent pad was more or less flat. But the rest is very uneven. It was inconvenient for setting chairs around the fire and setting up canopies. It was difficult for my elderly mother to walk around in. The path down to the lake was steep and very root covered and in some spots difficult to walk down. Nothing unusual, just not great. Very quiet in the campground. Boaters and skiers are prevalent on the weekends. But only between approved times of 11 am to 4 pm. This gives morning and evening time no wake hours which is nice.

How far ahead to book Boot Lake Campground

For July weekends, book about 162 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 59 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 (3,157 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.
