The camp was well kempt and clean. Its in a great location: on the lake and nearby numerous trails. This camp is great for families or those looking for a base for hitting the trails. Ive been hiking and camping at Trinity since the mid 90’s, Hayward Flat was easy camping with plenty of sites.

Water was lower than expected given the winter snowpack and amount of rain.
A lot of branches and downed trees around the camp area. Bathrooms poorly maintained.

We love this campground!! It sits 2 miles off the highway, so very quiet. Big spacious sites with lots of trees. Clean restrooms and water close by. The perfect place for relaxing.

This is a basic, no frills campground. It’s a very long and exhausting walk down to the water. The shoreline was muddy and steep. The forest is beautiful and the toilets flush so that’s a plus. I’m not sure that we’ll return. It wasn’t worth the drive for us.
