Just finished a trip to Lopez Lake …. Great place to take the family. The trout were a good size and a Special shout out to the staff at the marina store & Park Rangers You made our trip smooth 🙌. Campsites were a little small but clean. Looking forward to our next trip.

Beautiful drive, beautiful lake, and what a convenient store/ restaurant. When The lemon groves along the way are flowering the smell is amazing. Dogs are allowed on leash. Park rangers Emily staff are awesome and friendly. There are docks to fish off and picnic tables with BBQ grills in beautiful spots all around the lake. They are a bit of a walk from the lake's edge though. I believe it's due to Lake level fluctuation. Beautiful place year-round.

Beautiful with tons of wildlife. The lake is drying up which is exposing more land to explore. The campsites are as varied as the land. Summer season sees the hill campsites opened up. There are some gems of campsites up there worth looking for. The marina is a great place to visit for food and games and the store is one of the best stores I've been to at a campground.

Great place to bring the family! Yes there is water now! Lol. Staff is friendly and helpful. Sites are well maintained and bathrooms are cleaned well and regularly. Be sure to check the size of your camper if you have one, sites are not one size fits all and if you don't fit some times they are booked up and switching sites can be a problem. Also ask what amp the electrical is because some sites are only 2 prong and if you don't have a converter it will be a problem. There is a small store and Restaurant and Bar in the marina area 4 convenience. You can also rent jet skis, boats, kayaks, and such at the marina. There is a water park with slides with a different entrance fee to get in and also zip lining for a separate fee. But there is always fishing, hiking or hanging out on the "beach" area. Oh and there is a area for volleyball and one for horse shoes. Love waking up to the sound of turkeys, seeing deer, squirrels, woodpeckers in the day and raccoons at night and hearing the owls. Be sure to put your ice chests and other foods away at night because there really is bears out there. I've seen them up close with my own eyes on different occasions. Love that there is next to no cell service so I can just enjoy the present.
