About White Rock Campground
White Rock Campground is a small developed campground, a short distance from Peña Blanca Lake, with 13 tent spaces, picnic tables, fire rings, parking spaces, a vault toilet, and many lovely mature Oak Trees shading most spots. During cooler months and holiday weekends the spaces are quick to fill, so get there early to secure your spot. White Rock Campground is located off Forest Road 39 about ¼ mile southwest of the lake. Campsites are located on the banks of Peña Blanca Canyon in the shadow of rocky cliffs which give the area its name. Additional dispersed camping can be found nearby at Pena Blanca Canyon, Alamo Canyon, and Walker Canyon.
