Lopez Lake Campground has 377 campsites and is located 10 miles east of Arroyo Grande, CA in San Luis Obispo County. Many of the campsites overlook the lake while others are among beautiful large oak trees.  There are also 4  cabins available in the Hawk Loop. Each cabin can accommodate up to 6 people (4 adults / 2 kids).

Campsites can accommodate tents, trailers and RVs. Campers can choose from standard sites (no hookups), sites with electrical hookups or full hookup campsites.  Keep in mind that many of the ‘primitive’ campsites (no hookups) are not in the best of shape (uneven and/or rutted parking area and camping area). Amenities include drinking water, flush toilets, hot-water showers (coin operated) and trash collection.

The recreation area also has a marina with a launch ramp, a food store, snack bar and a tackle shop. Boat rentals also operate year-round.

If you’re heading down by the coast you may also like Pismo State Beach Oceano or North Beach campgrounds.
