• Aspenglen Campground: reservation counts as timed entry for the rest of the park and the Bear Lake Road corridor.
• Timber Creek Campground: reservation counts as timed entry for the rest of the park — not the Bear Lake Road corridor.
• Longs Peak Campground: First come, first served and tents only; it opens in early July. The camping fee does not include a timed entry reservation, so campers follow the same hours as other visitors.
• Campers can enter from 1 p.m. on the first day of the camping reservation (the campground check-in time). On checkout day (checkout is noon) the campground confirmation stays valid for re-entry all day.
