Maine Campground Reservations

POSTED BY
Leah Ingram

Hoping to take your family camping in Maine this summer at a public park? Well, the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands opens reservations in February for state campgrounds. 

There are 12 state park campgrounds in Maine. However, there is only one in Southern Maine.

That is Sebago Lake State Park in Cumberland County.

Reservations for the Sebago Lake State Park campground begin on February 1, 2024. Phone lines open at 9 a.m.

Also, you can make an online camping reservation here. That form goes live, from what I’m told, at 9 a.m. on 2/1/24 as well.

Making a Maine campground reservation

From the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands website:

To complete your reservation, you will need the following:

  • Valid credit or debit card (American Express, VISA, MasterCard or Discover)
  • Occupant Information
  • Camping equipment information

Reminder: The Reservation Call Center no longer mails paper permits to campers who make their camping reservations over the phone. Every phone reservation will receive an emailed confirmation and permit to download and present at the entrance booth when checking in. The occupant’s name on the permit must still match the valid ID credential presented at the time of check-in.

Contact Phone Number: Reservations Call Center: In Maine: 800-332-1501; Outside of Maine: (207) 624-9950; TTY: Call Maine Relay 711

Contact Email Address: campground.reservations@maine.gov

If your hiking and camping plans ever take you out West, here’s what you need to know about hiking Half Dome and the permit and lottery process.
