See All Available Nights

You can view all available nights, up to 12 months ahead, of any campsite that is showing unavailable for your selected dates. Unavailable campsites are shown on the map as gray icons.

Show Available Dates

The description window of any unavailable campsite includes a large green button with "Show Available Dates". Use this button to reveal an interactive calendar that shows every available date for that campsite — allowing you to easily change your dates so you can reserve that favorite campsite.

This will also reset your selected dates so that you can select more than one campsite for the same dates.

If you need assistance making campsite reservations, please give us a call. We'll be happy to help you plan your next camping trip.

Electronic Gate Information

For enhanced safety and security, Long Hunter State Park has installed a new electronic gate at the main entrance of the park. The gate will open daily at 5 AM and close nightly at 8 PM. Please note:

• Entry will not be permitted outside of the operational hours listed above. Boat ramp users may still launch if they arrive before 8 PM.

Select Available Nights

To select nights for your camping reservation, click on an active check-in date for the desired campsite. Then select the last night of your stay. Your reservation will be highlighted and your check-out date is indicated on the next date. Most campsites require a minimum of a 2-night stay.

Use the Calendar or links to change the date range of the list.

Select Multiple Campsites

Using this view, you can select more than one campsite, as well as multiple check-in and check-out dates, on the same reservation. This allows you to assemble a longer reservation from more than one campsite - helpful during the busy season. You can also reserve multiple sites for your group to accommodate varying arrivals or departures.

Consecutive Nights Required

You may select any number of campsites and dates as long as your reservation is no longer than 14 nights and all dates are consecutive or overlap.

As an example, you can make multiple campsite reservations with varying check-in or check-out dates as long as all dates overlap or are consecutive.

Reserving campsites with separate date ranges, such as over two different weekends with unreserved dates in between, requires making separate reservations. You can complete one reservation and use the Make Another Reservation button in the confirmation stage to easily make additional reservations.

Rates & Descriptions

The nightly rate for each campsite is displayed by date and individual site. Note that rates are subject to change based on availability and season.

The quoted rate for each night does not include taxes or the reservation fee.

Information on each campsite is displayed by selecting the campsite name in the left column.

How do I create a multi-site camping itinerary?

This park offers the ability to create a camping itinerary that spans multiple nights and different campsites — allowing campers to hike throughout the park and stay at a variety of sites, all in one reservation and incurring only one reservation fee.

To add the next date to your reservation; select the button to return to the site selector stage. Your arrival date of Monday, March 16 will be set as your next Arrival date for this leg of your itinerary.

From the site selection stage, choose the campsite(s) for the next night of your itinerary. The number of campsites you may select for each leg is limited to the number of sites from previous leg.

You may repeat this process for up to a total of 14 nights per reservation. Once you have settled on your itinerary, simply complete the reservation process below. A confirmation will be emailed to you with details of each campsite and dates in your itinerary.
