Lake Casitas camping offers over 400 sites, so you can choose the camping experience that suits you best. Some sites are lakeside, close enough to hear the lapping water, others are nestled among the trees, and still more are located on hillsides offering splendid views of the sparkling lake.
We have sites to accommodate tents, tent trailers, campers and RVs, all with picnic tables and fire rings, and some with children's playgrounds close by. Shower houses with bathrooms are located at the front gate and towards the back of the park. We also have a convenient, fenced, dry storage facility for recreational vehicles, boats, canoes & kayaks
Basic Sites: $30
Basic Hook-up (concrete pad): $38
Deluxe Hook-up (electric & water only): $50
Executive Hook-up (concrete pad/sewer): $60
You can make reservations up to 180 days in advance online, by phone, or in person. Full payment is due at the time of your reservation request. Many campers find out the hard way that from mid-March through September our campgrounds sell out on the weekends.
Great campground. The campsites are very well maintained. Rangers are very nice and the LAKE is So FULL 🥳🥳.
Never again. This place tacks on so many fees to nickel and dime you at every turn, and it is absolutely not worth it whatsoever. It's not even nice there.
1. When booking they do alert you that there is an extra fee to park additional vehicle(s) in your campsite. 🙄 they don't actually say what that daily fee is. It's $18 a day or $24 on weekends and they consider Fridays weekends! For a 4 night stay this totaled $84. Just to park 1 car in the campsite we already paid over $200 for. Ridiculous.
2. We booked a 60' long campsite for our very large RV. We arrived to find out the site was nowhere near 60' it was more like 40'. The camp host directed us back to the front gates where they told us there would be a $6 fee for moving sites. Ridiculous to charge us for their mistake. There were over 25 other sites available for our dates.
3. We didn't want to stay 4 nights in the first place but they force you to book Saturday night if you stay Friday nights. No flexibility. There are like 400 campsites in this park.
4. The campsites are very far from level. The maps are extremely outdated and confusing. There are people partying loudly into the night. There are 2 dump stations but the one that's convenient isn't open until after 7pm on weekdays only. They even charge you more to use the showers on top of all the other fees, and they aren't available when the water park is open. The bathrooms are disgusting. You can't swim in the lake. There was a $15 processing fee that you pay for the pleasure of paying them. There is nothing good about this place.
Truly this is one of the worst camping experiences we have ever had and we hated it.
Nice place for a weekend getaway. Camping with family celebrating a birthday. Large camp ground with a lot of trees. Lake at about 75% and beautiful. Our group went on a 4.5 mile bike ride inside the park. Very hilly suggest eBike.
They will allow campsites to turn into loud block parties that don’t stop all night! Playing loud boombox in highest volume until past 1am with NO STAFF enforcing lights out at 10pm. What a waste of $80 for ONE night ! Not including the $10 we were charged just for driving around to find a spot day before. Had to leave first thing in morning because the party started back up. Couldn’t even make the breakfast I bought food for because it didn’t feel safe.
I’m an experienced camper who spends weeks at a time driving around the country and this is the first campsite where Lights out at 10pm are NOT enforced . Thank GOD I don’t have kids because they would have learned every swear word in the book last night
Beautiful lake. This gem used to be a a potential world record potential for Florida strain large mouth bass. Unfortunately it's not managed well anymore but still holds its beauty when they allow water in and not spilling into the pacific ocean. It's only 16 miles from the pacific ocean to the highest mountain tops so when California gets rain it usually just gets wasted into the pacific. Very poor water management here. The lake is usually very low in drought years.
