This was exactly what we needed after being in Yosemite, which had been crowded. It was so peaceful, we were there during the week. The camp hosts were amazing. They were very helpful. The campsite was clean. The bathroom was clean. We had full hookups and after having no hookups in Yosemite it was amazing to have water and power and sewer. And the views of the lake and rolling hills were beautiful. We saw so many birds and hawks, even a bald eagle! We didn't want to leave. I'm ready to go back. Thank you to the camp hosts and the rangers.

The campsites for RVs with sewer connections are small and can feel over crowded.

Campground was very busy due to a large group at the three group sites, otherwise it is normally quiet.

My husband and I went to this campground and stayed at site 23 from September 9th to the 23rd. It was a great and amazing site. Just from where you park you will be able to see the lake right from there. You are not going to be disappointed.
The road to get there depending on which way that you are coming from is smooth but you will deal with some bumps and small holes in the road getting there. But besides that the sunset is amazing and great for a photo. The staff was great and the best part that at site 23 the restroom is right there and they have showers also.
Not to mention that they do have rattle snakes and coyotes. While we were staying there we didn't see none but on our last day a coyote came out of the trees but didn't bother us. But overall this is a highly recommend campground to stay at yourself or with your family. We will be staying there again and forgot to mention that you will run into the most nicest people. It is really family friendly and pet friendly. And the closest stores are only about 25 to 30 minutes away.

This campground was interesting. I arrived at sunset and there was not a single other soul staying there. It was especially eerie because this campground is 40 minutes from the nearest town. Also got attacked by a camel spider. I hope to never see a camel spider again.

We have camped many times at Eastman Lake, but this trip started out bad. When we arrived there was a group playing live music and talking on a microphone. Even though it was hot we opted for the primitive campground with no electricity because of noise. When we pulled into a shady site a ranger pulled up and scolded us for parking there without a reservation. He stood there putting pressure on me until I completed the reservation. We were the only people in the Wildcat campground. He also said he had a report of someone driving fast through the campsite. My husband is the slowest driver i know. He left a pamphlet of the rules with reckless driving and parking in a site we hadn’t reserved yet circled. We’re seniors who camp there quite often and have always been treated with respect except by this young ranger.
