Overview

A brief introduction to Lake Sonoma

Lake Sonoma is located in the wine-growing region of Sonoma County, CA. A picturesque lake with secluded vehicle and boat-in camping available for the fishing and boating enthusiast.

Lake Sonoma is a reservoir west of Cloverdale in northern Sonoma County, California, created by the construction of Warm Springs Dam. The lake provides water for countywide growth and development, and for recreation.
At full capacity, it has 50 miles (80 km) of shoreline, a surface area of more than 2,700 acres (11 km2), and holds 381,000 acre-feet (470,000,000 m3) of water. Activities include boating, swimming, fishing, riding, hiking, camping, and hunting. Notable features include the Milt Brandt Visitor Center, the adjacent Congressman Don Clausen Fish Hatchery, and the Warm Springs Recreation Area below the dam. Access from U.S. Route 101 is by way of Canyon Road (from the south) from Geyserville, or Dutcher Creek Road (from the north) from Cloverdale. The Warm Springs Creek Bridge crosses the lake just south of the dam, connecting the communities east of the lake to the Rockpile AVA to its west.

Camper reviews for Lake Sonoma

Rains filled lake - beautiful!

In drought, the shoreline scar on reservoirs is not aesthetically pleasing. But this year CA lakes are full and gorgeous, with green rolling hills still lasting to June. Lake Sonoma is 1 of only 2 places I know of in Sonoma County to backpack now. The Bummer Peak backpack is great, with beautiful views. Shoreline camps are awesome but boat-in is also allowed at those.
