Campground Reservations

Link to Reserve America

The Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (DEEP) has a toll free telephone and on-line system to reserve campsites, including those with rustic cabins, at state park and forest campgrounds.

 
 
 
Reservations for all state campgrounds are available online at Reserve America or by calling toll free 1-877-668-CAMP (2267) during the following hours:
 
May 1 – September 1
Monday - Wednesday: 8 am - 2:30 pm
Thursday - Friday: 8 am - 6:30 pm
Saturday and Sunday: 9 am - 12 pm.
 
Off Peak Season
Monday - Friday: 9 am - 12 pm
 
Payment may be made by credit card, money order or travelers check when calling the toll free number or by credit card on-line. There is a $9.00 fee for making each reservation. A $9.00 fee will also apply for cancellations or reservation changes.
Reservations are accepted from 11 months to 1 day prior to the camping stay.  There is a two night minimum stay to reserve a site.
 
Please refer to the State Park Camping Areas  page for opening and closing dates.
 
Mt. Misery Campground and Green Falls Campground at Pachaug State Forest in Voluntown now require reservations through Reserve America.
 
Cancellations and Refunds
Reservations may be cancelled up to two days prior to the intended stay by contacting the Reserve America Call Center toll-free at 1-877-668-2267 or visiting www.ReserveAmerica.com.  A $9.00 service charge will apply to each cancellation.  Campers will receive a full refund minus the service charge if they initiate a cancellation at least 7 days prior to their check-in date.  Cancellations made between 7 and 2 days prior to the check-in date will result in a refund of the original payment minus the charge for one night of camping and the service fee.  Refunds are not offered for cancellations initiated less than two days before the camping stay.

As with many recreational activities, weather conditions are an assumed risk that campers accept as a normal part of the outdoor experience.  Therefore, dissatisfaction for reasons of weather, site conditions, or other natural phenomena is not considered sufficient cause for granting a refund.  Refund requests related to other extenuating circumstances that occur just prior to, or during, a camp stay must be submitted in writing to the state park or forest campground where the campsite was rented.  The campground will verify registration and forward the request to the Department for review and consideration.
