PORTLAND, Ore., July 9, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- America is heeding the call of the wild. With
an estimated 84.8 million Americans ditching city lights to sleep
under the stars in 2023, it's clear that camping has never been
more popular. As a result, according to The Dyrt's 2024 Camping
Report presented by The All-New Toyota Tacoma, 45.5% of campers
reported having a difficult time getting a reservation at a
campground. To that end, The Dyrt has compiled a list of the Top 10
Hardest-to-Book Campgrounds in the U.S.
"It's great that more people are getting outdoors and embracing
the joy of camping," says The Dyrt founder Sarah Smith. "But now more than ever, it's
important to really plan ahead and secure your campsite well in
advance. The Dyrt makes it easy to monitor availability and track
cancellations in real time so you can find a place to rest at some
of the country's most beautiful locations."
Among the most in-demand campgrounds are those operated within
National Park Services (NPS) sites, which have skyrocketed in
popularity. National parks might be America's best idea, but the
second-best idea is to book the best campsites well ahead of time —
especially the sites on this list, which are typically booked solid
for more than 93% of the season.
Ranging from an RV park in the Grand Tetons, to rustic sites
along one of America's most pristine lakeshores, to a city-adjacent
reservoir, these campgrounds' combination of natural beauty,
proximity to must-see areas, essential amenities, and natural
splendor make them the types of places campers visit again and
again … if they reserve them in time.
These are the Top 10 Hardest-to-Book Campgrounds in the U.S.
- Nevada Beach Campground — Lake
Tahoe Basin Management Unit, Nevada — 99.4%
- Twelvemile Beach Campground — Pictured Rocks National
Lakeshore, Michigan — 99.4%
- Devils Garden Campground — Arches
National Park, Utah —
99.2%
- Seven Points Campground — J. Percy

97.6%
- Kirk Creek Campground — Los Padres National Forest,

- Hurricane River Campground — Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore,
Michigan — 96.8%
- Aspenglen Campground — Rocky Mountain
National Park, Colorado —
96.1%
- Fruita Campground — Capitol Reef
National Park, Utah —
95.9%
- Colter Bay RV Park at Colter Bay Village — Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming — 94.9%
- Twin Lakes Campground — Inyo National Forest, California — 93.7%
"This is the most amazing campground there is," writes The Dyrt
camper Marta S. in a review of Twelvemile Beach Campground at
Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. "Words cannot do the beauty of
this campground and area justice. I dream of being back here … I
had a blast of a time, and so did my dog."
Looking to set up camp this summer at a National Parks Services
site like these but haven't scored a reservation? Campers can use
The Dyrt Alerts to track cancellations at sold-out
campgrounds.
"Last year's hardest-to-book campground was full 100% of the
season, while this year's No. 1 comes in at just 99.4%," jokes The
Dyrt CEO Kevin Long. "But the fact
is, even highly coveted sold-out campgrounds have cancellations.
That's why we created The Dyrt Alerts — to give more people a
chance to book these life-changing outdoors experiences."
