Welcome to the Maine Campground Reservation Website 20th Anniversary
1988 - 2008

The reservations staff, at the Bureau of Parks and Lands, is here to help you plan what we hope will be your best vacation ever in Maine’s State Parks. This year, we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Maine’s reservation program. There are many convenient ways to make camping reservations for 2008. Please understand that during peak periods, the three Call Center telephone lines are extremely busy. Make your reservation as early in the season as possible in order to secure a site.

NEW for 2009, in February, all walk in customers will be required to fill out forms, enclose appropriate payment, and drop off reservation requests. Staff will process your request in the order it was received throughout the business day.

NEW for 2008, the reservation system will accept reservations for the maximum of 14-nights by telephone or Internet.

This will be our second season with the real-time internet reservation system. Campers who wish to make reservations for popular campsites are encouraged to utilize this process. Your reservation will be processed immediately, at any time of the day, and you can print your permit from home.

Please be sure to review all of the Bureau of Parks and Lands rules, regulations, and policies before making your campground reservation. As always, we are dedicated to providing quality service to our camping customers, and hope the improvements we make each season add to your state park experience.

We look forward to your visit to Maine State Parks this season.
