Fuller Grove Group Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Upper Lake Ranger District of Mendocino National Forest in California. It sits among a cluster of campgrounds and trails, with Fuller Group Campground just 0.2 miles away and Oak Flat about a mile off. The site has restrooms, and it is not reservable, so it works well for a spontaneous overnight stay. The nearest town is Upper Lake, which makes it an easy base for exploring the surrounding forest. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 79°F and October highs around 79°F, while July and August average in the mid-90s. That station sits roughly 900 feet lower than the campground, so temperatures here run cooler. Lake Pillsbury, about a mile away, offers fishing, and the Oak Flat Access Trail and Sunset Nature Trail are both within 2 miles.
