Codorniz Recreation Area Campground

Site 43 has some nice features:
It's very close to Restroom #3, about 200 feet. There are two trash cans only 30 feet away. It's well-aligned with the access road, so it's easy to back your vehicle in. The picnic table and fire pit are 10 feet away from the back of the parking pad, and on the same level - no having to climb a hill between the parking pad and the picnic table like at some of the sites in this campground. The view to the east is very scenic. There is a large oak tree right next to the rear section of the parking pad on the west - hanging a light or lantern from a tree branch and angling it just right lights up the picnic table after sunset so you can easily do food prep at night if you want. There's plenty of flat space around the rear of the parking pad and the picnic table to set up a tent.
Activities:
There is a boat ramp 1/4 mile away, and day-use areas 3 miles away on the west side of the lake. There are hiking and biking trails, and in springtime when the grass is green, the whole area around Eastman Lake is very beautiful, with wildflowers growing all over. It's very peaceful, and the spring season soundscape is relaxing: lots of birds, and in the distance you can hear cattle in the pastures, and coyotes yipping at night.
If you don't have a boat, but do have a car for making day trips, it's 90 miles each way to Yosemite National Park, via Highway 41. If you can get up early and get on the road by 06:00am, you can be in Yosemite Valley by 09:00am, and have more-or-less a full day to explore the place, then drive back to Codorniz after sunset. There are other National Forest campgrounds closer to Yosemite, but none with electric hookups that I know of.
If you are tent camping, as I am, the optimal season here is about October 1st-to March 31st. From April through September, it's very hot in the daytime, and December through February can be very cold at night, but March is ideal for tent camping, with the spring flowers and green grass.

Codo 11 was the perfect site to camp with family! Just a few steps away to capture a beautiful sunset and another few steps to check out the water. Definitely recommend!

it was great and relaxing! watching all the wildlife

Absolutely loved this place! Lots of wildlife and beautiful scenery. Bathrooms were clean.

Great tent camping venue for the cooler months of the year. Nicely maintained sites and restrooms. Friendly volunteer camp hosts.

Scenic. Quiet.

My party had a great time. The weather was great. The Volunteer hosts were also very friendly and accommodating. The camp was clean and quiet.

Clean camp grounds, clean bathrooms. Friendly and helpful camp host.
Sites are level with almost all sites on lake edge giving a great view of the lake.

The campground was clean and quiet. Host quickly got me checked in and directed me to my campsite.
It was my first time there and I was camping in a tent. I lucked out when I chose site #14 in the Cordoniz campground. The site has a large flat level area for the biggest tent or several small tents. No power only water. A clean bathroom nearby. No real lake view from the campground (except for maybe sites 9-12 not real sure though) and it would be a good hike to the waters edge from any of the campsites.
I was there early in the year so i'm not sure how hot and rowdy this place gets in the Summer.

Campground host is excellent and keeps this place looking great! Rangers are really friendly and helpful, we will definitely be back!
