COVID-19 UPDATE:
Pavilion/Shelters: All pavilion and shelter reservations are canceled through June 14th. Visitors with reservations through June 14th will be issued a full refund. All new pavilion/shelter
reservations for the 2020 season have been suspended until further notice. For more information visit parks.ny.gov and dec.ny.gov.
UPDATE FOR 2021 PAVILIONS: New York State Parks is pleased to introduce the new pavilion Reservation System on Reserve America. Operating on an 11-month window, patrons can visit online or call Reserve America for pavilion reservations for the 2021 season. We encourage online reservations as the Call Center is experiencing longer than average wait times.
