Lake Piru is located in Ventura County, California, in the Los Padres National Forest next to the Sespe Condor Sanctuary. You would never know it floating on our peaceful lake, but we are less than an hour away from Los Angeles. Visitors to our campground can also enjoy the uncrowded beaches of Ventura or Hollywood and Universal Studios.
Campground
Lake Piru offers level tree-shaded camping sites, clean restrooms, free hot showers and fully stocked store to meet most camping and boating needs. Motor homes, trailers and truck campers are welcome. Lake Piru has paved roads, pull-through, tree-shaded sites, and convenient dump stations. 
Boating and Fishing
A five-lane concrete launch ramp is available at all water levels for fast launching and a convenient boarding float is located on the ramp to assist in easy access to your boat.
Water skiing can be enjoyed all year on most of the lake and most inflatable water toys are permitted.
Two floating restrooms, aptly named the S.S. Reliefs, help make your day on the lake more pleasurable. Personal Watercraft are prohibited!
Segregated areas for high-speed boating and fishing have proved to be very popular. During the summer season, swimming is available in our designated swimming area. Lots of imported sand make the beach area a relaxing place to lay in the sun or take a dip in the water.
Note: The state of California now requires all boats to have a 10-minute inspection for mussels before entering the lake. We have a tagging program in place so customers who only put their boat in at Lake Piru can avoid this inspection on future visits. Learn more here.
