Santee Lakes Recreation Preserve is a beautiful 190-acre park surrounding a chain of seven scenic lakes. The park provides a safe and tranquil setting for camping, fishing, picnics, hiking, fitness, bird watching, boating and recreation in a natural environment.
If you live up north, follow the ducks and migrate to Santee Lakes for the winter. If you already live in sunny San Diego, then bring the kids up for a weekend or week, it's like a trip to the Sierras, without the 8-hour drive. Our 172 full hookup campsites are nestled in the foothills, just 20 minutes from San Diego's big attractions.
Construction has begun on the Campground Expansion Project that includes 130 new hookup campsites, adding to the existing 172 sites. The new campsites will be located in and around the existing Cottonwood Loop in the Northern end of the park. Large deluxe campsites, hiking trails, common picnic areas and a meandering live stream are all included in this exciting design by Nasland Engineering.
