Don Pedro Lake Camping
Don Pedro Lake camping offers fun for the entire family and the area is a wonderful place to enjoy the great outdoors, especially if you’re in to water sports! Located about 2 1/2 hours east of San Jose (CA) Don Pedro Lake has over 160 miles of shoreline and 13,000 surface acres of clear blue water.
Visitors can enjoy some mighty fine fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, jet skiing, water skiing and windsurfing. You can also rent houseboats and spend your time cruising the beautiful lake. There’s also lots to do on shore include hiking, biking, picnicking, hunting, throwing some horseshoes, playing volleyball and softball, or watching the wildlife. The “Fireworks Spectacular” on-the-water show is usually scheduled in June.
There are three campgrounds situated around Don Pedro Lake including Fleming Meadows, Moccasin Point and Blue Oaks. We have campsite photos for both Fleming Meadows and Moccasin Point, and will also get Blue Oaks campground soon.
