I visited on a quiet day so I can’t speak to when the place is at full capacity. But I found it to be thoughtfully managed, clean, and safe. I would stay here again.

Tent camping on the land was beautiful, thankfully our group had the place to ourselves! Loved the privacy and secluded land. Walking the dirt road neighborhood streets was a great exercise without going far. Our dogs loved the off leash opportunity. We will absolutely visit the land again. Only con our party had was we booked for 3 nights and didn't realize the porta potty was already pretty full, however it didn't smell and was very clean. Next time we do hope to have an emptier potty or access to both.

Easy to set up on the drive thru drive way. No need to back up! Right by freeway access so it was easy to go visit all the things we wanted to on our vacation. Power hookups was convenient. No water hookup but had well water to fill our RV. Great spot to camp!

The best big rig friendly camping near Lake of the Woods guide

Where to go

Los Padres National Forest

Lake of the Woods is right in Los Padres National Forest, the third-largest national forest in the state. The forest is home to massive stretches of protected wilderness areas, developed campgrounds (many of which are seasonal) along with thermal hot springs, fresh rivers, and endless opportunities for hiking.

Sequoia National Forest

Some of the biggest trees in the land can be found in Sequoia National Forest, a 1.2 million-acre expanse that includes the Giant Sequoia National Monument. Within the forest are 52 developed campgrounds, thousands of rivers, streams, ponds, and lakes, and over 1,100 miles of hiking trails.

California's Central Coast

In the mood for some fresh coastal air? California's Central Coast isn’t too far away. Here you'll find a solid mix of sandy beaches and rocky cliff-lined shores, plus a few fantastic state beach campgrounds.

When to go

Lake of the Woods is a summer destination, and the surrounding area gets lots of visitors during the summer months, when school is out and people from hotter parts of the state descend on the forest for camping and cooling off. The weather stays warm into October, making early autumn a great time to visit when you want to avoid crowds. Winters tend to be mild without much snow, but nearby parts of the forest do get a lot of snowfall, so it’s wise to bring chains.
