YOLO COUNTY, CA (MPG) - Cache Creek Canyon Regional Park is located approximately 6 miles north of the town of Rumsey along State Highway 16, providing over 600 acres of natural wilderness. The Regional Park is divided into three use areas: the Cache Creek Upper Park Site, the Cache Creek Middle Campground Park Site, and the Cache Creek Lower Park Site. The three park use areas offer a range of activities such as white-water rafting, rural hiking, kayaking, fishing, and nature walks.

Starting Friday, April 1st, 2022, Cache Creek Canyon Regional Park reopens all its 45 campground sites and 4 group sites. Back in April of 2020, when the Yolo County Shelter in Place Order came out, all Yolo County parks closed. Despite parks reopening in May of 2020, Cache Creek Campground remained closed. With high restrictions, the campground reopened some of its sites in late June of 2020.

In August of 2020, the campground had to, once again, fully shut down, due to the LNU fires, and it remained closed until late September of 2020. But then closed for the season only a few days later.

For the camping season of 2021, Cache Creek Campground opened its doors, but once again with limited sites, no group sites and high restrictions. 

Today, Supervisor Barajas, residents, & county staff helped open the doors to the 2022 camping season that will be open from April 1st to October 10th with no restrictions.
