Thanks for your input!  We're aiming for next Wed and Thur!  Perfect weather forecase and the Harvest Festival.   Unfortunately, Christmas time isn't an option as we'll be camping.     Cannot wait as I've not been to SDC since 1979!  My father was friends with the ride designer so we went a lot back in the late 70's - but I'm sure so much has changed!  Thanks again. 

Well, we missed our Spring trip.  Now we're going end of Sep or 1st week of Oct.  Still looking for low crowds.  Anyone have an idea on crowds this time of year?  If any particular day is better for low crowds, please let me know.  We can go Wed-Sun any day.  Basically, if it's going to be super busy, we may put this off until next Spring.  Thanks!

Thanks!  Regarding The Wilderness Campground, any idea the difference between Wilderness Tent Sites and Tent Sites?   They list them both with a few dollars difference. 

Can anyone provide some feedback on Tall Pines Campground, specifically the tent sites?  Are they large, secluded, clean?  Thought they had a website, but it doesn't seem to be working.  So I'm not sure if they are even still there.  Haven't tried calling yet.  But in the mean time wanted some feedback on this campground (vs. The Wilderness which I understand is by the hwy and small sites).  Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback!  I haven't been there since '79, so I figured things may have changed a bit.   

My husband and I are traveling to SDC in May.  We're completely open on the dates and day of week and are looking at sometime during the last two weeks of May - before Memorial Day (and before schools let out). We want the very lowest crowds but were concerned that the BBQ/Bluegrass festival would bring in huge crowds.  We're very flexible on our week and days (are Sun-Wed typically the slowest?) so any input from experienced SDC travelers would be appreciated!!
