Santa Margarita KOA

Campground Setting and Atmosphere

Tranquil rural setting, wildlife, beautiful panoramic vistas, rolling to rugged terrain.

Fishing and Boating at Santa Margarita Lake

We are located a quarter mile from the Lake. Boating and fishing are welcome there, but the lake is a no-contact lake. Picnic areas and BBQ grills paired with fresh caught fish make for some tasty BBQs! There is a marina at the lake along with a fish cleaning station. Boat rentals are also available at the marina.

Equestrian, Hiking, and Bicycle Riding Trails

We are only about 10 minutes from Pozo National Forest, which offers many trails for horse back riding, cycling, and hiking. There are several trails even closer to our KOA, such as the Rinconada Trailhead. We also have some hiking areas on our grounds.
