BOZEMAN, Mont. - American Prairie Reserve (APR) experienced a surge of visitation in 2020, recording more people staying overnight at its facilities than any previous year.
The APR said overnight reservations last year were up nearly 200% compared to 2019. The uptick in visitation was driven in part by people seeking respite outdoors from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and came despite having only 40% of the Reserveâs camping and lodging inventory available due to COVID-19 precautions.Â
According to American Prairieâs Director of Recreation and Public Access Mike Kautz, 665 reservations were recorded in 2020 from the Reserveâs three huts and two campgrounds. In comparison, there were 232 reservations recorded in 2019. A reservation is defined as a group reserving one unit of lodging (campsite, hut or cabin), and not a count of individual visitors. Kautz said each reservation had an average group size of four people.
