Reservations to start at state parks

Reservations can start being made at North Dakota State Parks beginning at 7 a.m. Feb. 12.

State park full services begin May 17 and the 95-day reservation window allows visitors to make sure they have campsites ready upon arrival. Reservations can be made 24 hours a day with the exception of the first day of the 95-day window — these reservations will be available at 7 a.m. In 2013, campsite reservations may be made for May 17 through Sept. 2, except for Fort Ransom State Park which will have reserved sites available through Sept 29. Stays are limited to 14 consecutive days unless otherwise noted.

Visitors to the Icelandic State Park campground will have to use a detour to reach the area as work continues on the Lake Renwick Dam.

Reservations for cabins, yurts, tipis, shelters, meeting halls and rooms may be made one year in advance. Reservations for campsites and cabins/yurts/tipis can be made until noon the day prior to arrival. Reservations may be made either online at www.parkrec.nd.gov or by calling the toll-free reservation line, 800-807-4723.
