While camping and day-use at Lake Don Pedro remain open, it is important to note that the air quality is extremely poor due to the Moc Fire. The marina at Moccasin Point is currently closed due to the fire and air quality, but Lake Don Pedro Marina near Fleming Meadows remains open. Please be aware that given the hot, dry conditions, there is a higher than normal risk of fire.
