Welcome to Cachuma Lake Recreation Area ... A Santa Barbara County Park renowned for its natural beauty and variety of fun things to do. For park information, weekend events, and Fish Watch call (805) 686-5054 or 686-5055 (Voice/TDD).

Tent, Trailer and RV Camping
More than 550 campsites, 90 with full electrical, water and sewer hookups, and 38 with electrical and water hookups, can accommodate any size tent or RV. Each campsite contains a picnic table and BBQ pit, with showers, restrooms and water nearby. An RV dump station is also available.

Yurt Camping
Yurts provide a camping experience with homey comforts. A cross between a tent and tepee, the yurts at Cachuma Lake feature platform beds to sleep 5 or 6, lockable door, inside lighting and heating, and screened windows in the fabric siding. Set on the bluff with access to the lakeshore, the view is spectacular.

Yurts may be reserved year-round and up to one year in advance (after Labor Day for the following year). Fees range from $30 to $50 per night depending on Yurt size and season. A non-refundable $15 reservation fee will be charged, and all reservations must be secured with a credit card. There is a 2-night minimum stay for weekends, and a 3-night minimum stay for all major holidays. Yurt information and reservations: (805) 686-5054 Monday through Friday, 9 am - 4 pm.

Recreation Facilities
You'll find a fully stocked general store, gas station, coin laundry, and hot showers. Great care has been taken to make our facilities accessible to everyone. Children's playgrounds, fishing piers, and hiking trails await you and your family. The Marina is open year-round and sells bait and tackle, fuel and fishing licenses. It also boasts a terrific snack bar & grill. The Family Fun Center includes a swimming pool, video games, miniature golf, bike rentals, and snack bar, and is open daily during the summer.
