Sunset Point Campground
Sunset Point Campground at Lake Pillsbury in the Mendocino National Forest is operated by the Pacific Gas and Electric Corporation. The campground is about a quarter mile from the Pillsbury Pines Boat Launch and Day-use Area on the northeast side of the lake.
Notice: Due to area waterways recently infested with invasive, harmful mussels, PG&E has closed Pillsbury Lake to all motorized watercrafts. At this time, non-motorized watercraft, such as kayaks and paddleboards, are also still allowed. Please CLEAN, DRAIN, and DRY all non-motorized vessels prior to launching in the reservoir.
Visitors to Sunset Point Campground enjoy boating, swimming, and fishing. Nearby is the Lakeshore Trail used by hikers, cyclists, and equestrians. Keep your eyes open for tule elk in the meadows at the north end of the lake.
Sunset Point Campground has 53 sites which can accommodate tents and small to medium RVs or trailers (up to 22 feet). Fourteen of the sites are doubles. The campsites are spread through a pine forest offering plenty of shade.
General Camping Information
Opening and closing dates of campgrounds are only estimates, usually dependent on weather conditions. Not all campsites can accommodate trailers or RVs of all lengths. If using a reservation website, check to see if your vehicles will fit in the provided space.
In order to prevent the spread of invasive insects, obtain firewood from the local area of the campground.
Accessible Sites
Designated Accessible sites are usually reserved for people with disabilities who have a vehicle displaying an accessible parking placard or license plate.
