Reservations for the Crittenden Park pavilion for the 2009 season may be made after January 6, 2009 by calling the main administrative office at (231) 832-6130.

Using our lottery system that is in effect, reservations for the twenty-five seasonal sites available at Crittenden Park can be made. Requests are taken throughout the year and names are collected from potential seasonal campers. In the fall, invitations to participate in the lottery system are sent out and people are given the opportunity to pick one preferred campsite and an alternate from the available seasonal campsites. The administrative office will select the name for each campsite number available. If there is only one request for a particular site than that person will get that site. If there is more than one request for a particular campsite and your name is not drawn, your name would go into a random drawing for the seasonal campsites remaining with a preference given to the alternate site if available. If after the lottery is held, there are still available campsites, they will be made available on a first come, first serve basis to all campers.
