About Us
Lake Pillsbury Resort is located in the majestic Mendocino National Forest. The Resort sits along the west shore of the peaceful and inviting Lake Pillsbury. By reservation, you can plan your weeks vacation up to a year in advance for our summer season. For shorter stays, give us a call to see what is available about a week or two out. This is a great location for a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With just over an hour drive from Ukiah in Mendocino County, or Upper Lake in Lake County, your journey into this rustic paradise hideaway begins.
The History
Lake Pillsbury was created by the building of Scott Dam along the Eel River in the early 1920’s. Lake Pillsbury Resort came to be a destination for outdoor enthusiasts and families to visit for sport, vacation and relaxation since the 1940’s. As purveyors of this hidden gem since 2005, and Lake Pillsbury regulars since the 60’s, we understand what the Lake Pillsbury experience is and should be. Our mission is to keep the family tradition alive for all our returning families, and also introduce new families to this wonderful escape from the big city and back to nature.
