Reservations can be made year round and up to one year in advance. However, the campground itself is usually only open from May through September, depending on the weather. This campground is operated by Lifetime Adventures under a commercial permit and is the only campground in the state park system to take reservations. A campsite may be occupied by no more than 12 people. Groups larger than 12 will need to use more than one campsite or get a permit to use a group site if one is available.
Annual passes are available for camping, daily parking, or boat launching.
Passes are good for the calendar year and are honored in most state parks. The camping and parking passes are decals that attach to the front windshield on the driver's side of a vehicle. The camping pass can only be purchased by Alaska residents and is subject to the stay limit posted in each campground. The boat launch pass attaches to the tongue of the boat trailer. Passes cannot be transferred and can be used on only one vehicle or trailer.
