Lake San Antonio

Lake San Antonio Campground distinguishes itself as a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, combining extensive on-site amenities, abundant water recreation opportunities, and stunning wildlife experiences. Spanning two expansive areas—North Shore and South Shore—this campground offers over 500 campsites, including options for tents, RVs, and group gatherings, with many sites positioned right by the lake for optimal access to water activities like boating, fishing, and swimming.

The South Shore features popular spots like Lynch Campground, offering electric and water hookups, and Harris Creek Campground, known for its proximity to the lake. North Shore's McCandless Springs Campground stands out for its mix of full-hookup sites and primitive camping. The site amenities include picnic tables, fire pits, restrooms, showers, a dump station, and a marina complete with a boat launch. Anglers can enjoy year-round fishing for bass and catfish, while bald eagle sightings during winter make it a birdwatcher’s paradise. The 26 miles of surrounding trails cater to hikers, mountain bikers, and horseback riders alike.

Located approximately 22 miles north of Paso Robles in Monterey County, this campground provides convenient access to scenic trails and unique attractions like the historic 18th-century Mission San Antonio de Padua, just a short drive away. Whether for a weekend getaway or an extended retreat, Lake San Antonio Campground promises a diverse and immersive outdoor experience steeped in the natural beauty and tranquility of Central California.
