Plan Ahead: Michigan State Parks Open for Summer Camping Reservations

Summer reservations have opened at Michigan state park campgrounds. The system allows visitors to book cabins, campsites, and forest spots six months ahead.

Popular dates fill fast. Some spots are already booked through July.

The Michigan State Parks Reservation System manages all bookings. Campers pick their dates and locations through the website.

Prices change depending on what you pick. Things such as your site, whether you get electricity, what kind of bathrooms there are all matter. Fees appear when you search.

Michigan residents get a perk. They can book up to 15 days at once, starting from their arrival date.

New dates unlock each day on a rolling schedule. Check soon if you're planning an August trip.
