Cumberland Falls State Resort Park

Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

1. You can reserve one of 50 tent and RV sites at Cumberland Falls Campground via the Reserve America website. Cabins are booked through the Dupont Lodge.
2. Campsite reservations open 12 months in advance and should be made a minimum of one day before arrival.  
3. Campsites can book up as fast, so plan your booking at least six months in advance, especially for summer and holiday weekends.

When to Go

Crowds head to Cumberland Falls to witness the monthly “moonbow,” which occurs on either side of the full moon—upcoming dates are listed on the park website. You can explore the park at any time, but many activities are seasonal. June through Labor Day is most popular, when you can swim, horseback ride, or join one of the Rainbow Mist rides beneath the falls. The campground is open from mid-March through the end of October.
