Getting a campsite at Lake Maria State Park

How do I get a campsite at Lake Maria State Park when it's sold out?

When do campsites usually open up at Lake Maria State Park?

Whenever someone cancels. Most reservation systems refund less the closer you get to arrival, so cancellations cluster in the days before a stay — but the openings themselves are unpredictable, which is exactly why watching for them beats refreshing the page.
