Booking Big Spring State Park in May
Texas state parks open reservations exactly 5 months in advance at 8 a.m. Central — so for a May trip, the booking window opens in December. Popular weekends can disappear within minutes of the window opening. If your dates are already full, set a Camp.land alert and we’ll email you the moment a cancellation opens.
What to Expect in May
Warming up, with Memorial Day weekend selling out fast. Weekdays stay calmer.
