IMPACT ON CAMPERS
DEM appreciates the understanding and patience of our campers as they work to enhance the camping experience at Burlingame. Here's what to expect:
- Reduced Campsite Availability: The number of reservable campsites will decrease during the 2025 and 2026 camping seasons to establish safe work zones.
- Construction Noise: Campers should expect to hear the common noises of construction equipment and traffic from construction vehicles on weekdays (7:00 AM – 5:00 PM) throughout the 2025/2026 camping seasons. No construction is anticipated on weekends or holidays.
- Affected Areas: Please refer to the map of impacted shower/restroom facilities and adjacent campsites during the 2025 camping season. Please review this map carefully when making reservations to understand potential impacts.
- Policies: Note that regular campground policies will be in effect for cancellations, refunds, and reservation changes.
Only highlighted areas can be reserved starting April 2025. Main Camp is restricted to tents.
