Best Time to Camp at Lindbergh Campground

Timing your visit can make all the difference at this low-lying riverside campground. Early spring and fall bring comfortable temperatures, brilliant foliage, and fewer mosquitoes—the buzz of summer can be intense in this humid, wooded floodplain. Keep in mind that the campground's location means sites don't drain quickly after rainfall, so recent storms may leave you navigating muddy patches or standing water, particularly during wetter seasons.

Summer(Jun-Aug)

Spring(Mar-May)
3.0 / 5
