This facility is for adult inmates.

The inmates housed at Konocti Conservation Camp #27 located at 13044 S St Hwy 29 in Lower Lake, CA are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.

Camp History/Operations – Konocti Conservation Camp CC#27 was opened in April 1963. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) work in concert together in the overall operation of the camp.
