Pilot Lake Camp
Welcome to Pilot Lake Camp
Pilot Lake Camp is set in the Sierra mountains near the town of LaPorte, California. It is a beautiful, rustic setting that boasts of a six-acre lake where campers can canoe, kayak, paddle board, swim, and fish. Founded in 1964 as Regular Baptist Camp, Pilot Lake is a seasonal, summer camp facility that provides great opportunities for church camps and retreats.
