The State Park Campground is managemed by concessionaire and has some weird reservation rules and requirements (visit the website for information) The campsites are situated on a slight hill/ slope and are accessible to most sized RVs. Located back in a canyon there is no cell service in this area. The road leading to the park is paved but winding and steep. Lake Piru is under quarantine due to a Quagga Mussel Infestation. In response the water district is draining the reservoir in an attempt to eradicate the mussels. Boaters can still use the lake as it drains but their boats will be flagged and they will be forced to prove a dry bilge and boat to launch in any other local waters.
