Booking Lake Colorado City State Park in February
Texas state parks open reservations exactly 5 months in advance at 8 a.m. Central — so for a February trip, the booking window opens in September. 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.
