State Parks and Reservoirs campgrounds at capacity for weekend

Indiana DNR Release:

All reservable campgrounds at Indiana’s State Parks and Reservoirs are booked for Memorial Day weekend for the first time since the statewide reservation system became computerized in late 2002.

“In previous years we've always had a few sites available at some of our newer properties, and a few primitive sites scattered across the state, but this year we are 99 percent full, and the 1 percent is a picnic shelter here or there that isn't booked. Everything else will be occupied this weekend,” said Christie Wilmoth, reservation system program manager with the DNR Division of State Parks and Reservoirs.

Don't miss out on a July 4 camping weekend. Cabins and campsites are still available, but will go quickly. Many weekends in between also have openings. Visit www.camp.IN.gov or call 1-866-6CAMPIN (1-866-622-6746) to reserve your favorite cabin, shelter or campsite.

If you want to camp but you’re not sure where to go, find property maps and facility information at www.stateparks.IN.gov.
