Spring rains are a blessing for Lake Pillsbury

April 21, 2018

What a wonderful sight to see Lake Pillsbury so full this April, 2018 from early spring rains. As of July 2017, both the Lake and Mendocino county roads in from Upper Lake and Potter Valley were open and passable. By reservation, you can book your week stay in our campground with many choice sites still available early June and later in July.  For shorter stays with large groups, we have some areas open for group camping that can be booked now.  Weekend reservations are only taken a few weeks out from check-in date once we roll into our busy time.

Camping at Lake Pillsbury Resort

March 10, 2017 by LPR No Comment

This summer we are going to shift things around a bit with a new structure in our Loafers Point area (camps #21-#30). We are accepting group reservations now for check-ins mid week with the full weekend included in your stay. The only camp that is not in this mix is camp #27F as it is reserved weekly almost all summer and a year in advance. So right now, you can reserve as a group for a 5-night stay for 5 camps or more, checking in mid-week and ending after the weekend.

Lake Pillsbury Resort – Summer 2015 – Made Great Lemonade!

Less access to the lake made for fewer boats, especially during the week, and many had the best water conditions they have ever experienced here. Everyone came in to report after a few days on the lake "Wow, we had perfect water and the lake almost all to ourselves; it was great!"
