What’s your idea of the perfect outdoors getaway? Whatever your favorite recreation, you can be certain there is something you’ll enjoy to do at Lake Casitas.For outdoor lovers, Lake Casitas is the perfect place to explore both on and off the water. This alluring lake has it all, except paddle boarding is prohibited. Popular activities include hiking, biking, camping and fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and fishing.

This picturesque lake offers miles of shoreline to paddle along a serene landscape of oak woodlands, flowering meadows, and gently rolling hills. The diverse terrain provides striking landscapes to capture on film taken from either along the shoreline or from on the water.

The western side of the Lake Casitas has more scenic coves to explore than the eastern half. Unfortunately, the wind and fog sometimes present a problem at this lake. Visit in spring for the best wildflowers and cooler weather.

Once inspected and approved, kayaks and canoes must only launch at Lake Casitas (without a re-inspection process) so that Lake Casitas will continue to be protected from invasive mussels.   

The campsites overlook the water and offers opportunities for tent camping and RVing.
