Improving DNR reservation system requires February interruption

Indiana DNR Release:

Improving the DNR’s reservation system for camping, cabins, recreation buildings and shelters will require a system interruption starting Feb. 8 at 12:01 a.m.

The improved system will be available Feb. 28 at noon.

During the service interruption, no advance reservations will be taken at the DNR’s call center or at www.Camp.IN.gov; however, same-day walk-up registrations will still be available at the property of your choice. The State Park Inns/Lodges also will take reservations for rooms and cabins associated with the inns during the system interruption at www.indianainns.com or 1-877-LODGES1 (1-877-563-4371).

When www.Camp.IN.Gov reopens Feb. 28, customers will be able select preferred amenities, and use an easy-to-read availability calendar and interactive campground maps. Eventually, photographs of campsites will be added.

“We thank everyone for their continued patronage, and appreciate their patience while we add features to make the system more convenient,” said Christie Wilmoth, the DNR Division of State Parks and Reservoirs’ business services program director.

All of the inventory that would have become available during the interruption will be available when the system reopens.

Those with questions during the interruption may call at 1-866-6CAMPIN (1-866-622-6746), Monday through Friday noon – 4 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, noon – 3 p.m., but no reservations may be made until Feb. 28 at noon.
