How easy/likely is it to get a first-come first-served site at this campground mid-week in early April (around the time of spring break)?
You should have no problem getting a mid-week campsite at Cibbets Flat in early April. Have fun!
Are dogs welcome?
Hi John,
Yes, dogs are allowed/welcome at Cibbets Flat campground. They need to be on leash at all times.
Is this campground usually busy mid October? I’d like to camp here the 18th thru the 20th but I’ve never camped here before, so I’m not sure what the availability looks like mid-October.
Hi Elizabeth,
There should be several campsites available at Cibbets Flat mid October (Oct 18-20). Should be a nice time of year up there – a little cool at night though. Have fun!
