What Guests Are Saying
Hayward Flat Campground offers a beautiful location near a lake, providing opportunities for swimming and kayaking, which many visitors enjoy. While recent tree clearing has left some debris and reduced shade, the campground remains relatively quiet and private with well-maintained restrooms. However, there are concerns about maintenance and the absence of a camp host, leading to mixed experiences regarding campsite conditions and amenities.

Beautiful site, shady mature trees and access not too bad to the water. Very rocky and steep shore with no shade, so better for motorized watercraft than swimming/paddling. Facilities were great.

The campground facilities were clean and campsites were nice. Other campers were respectful. Daily rounds done by the hosts and the local Sheriff. Quite a hike down to the water level, but the water was great. Bring water toys. Not a lot of level ground by the water, easier to just be on the water :).
My family needed some time away from our home and this is just what the doctor ordered. Rest, relaxation, family and fun.

We have been coming to Lake Trinity, Hayward Flat, for at least 40 years. This year the lake was down 50+ feet but that varies with rainfall. The company managing the campgrounds does a pretty good job. We love the lake and the 2 major campgrounds. It feels like home. One suggestion is that as lower lake levels are becoming more the norm, the forest service should really improve the Minersville Ramp. It is very challenging compared to the other ramps, which unfortunately come out of the water at 50 ft down. Mysteriously to me the other end of the lake at Trinity Center, which is a very small town and no campgrounds, has just had their ramp improved to two concrete lanes to 70 ft down and a 200 car parking lot. It would make sense to improve Minersville which is where the 2 large campgrounds are and closer to Weaverville which has restaurants, a nice grocery store, etc. Thank you.
