Perris Lake Access provides entry to Lake Perris State Recreation Area via two main entrances (Moreno Valley and Perris), with the Lake Perris Marina on the north side offering two boat ramps with four lanes each, boat rentals, and a marina store.

The lake is located 11 miles south of Riverside off Highway 60 or I-215, and hikers and bicyclists can access the lake from most trails without paying day-use fees, while vehicle access requires a day-use fee.
