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.

Spot #69 was nice and flat. Perfect spot to place multiple tents. Short walk to the water. Will definitely be visiting again.

We have been camping here for nearly 40 years. With the exception the last couple of years due to low reservoir water and COVID. We made it, finally again this year. The reservoir was looking good, water levels were up, not full, but up. My issue is price now vs what we got. In years past the bathrooms were cleaned and checked daily. That never happened our entire 5 night stay. Thank goodness we were in an RV instead of a tent. Bathrooms were dirty, no TP. Pretty disgusting. I’ve always been happy to recommend Hayward Flats campground, not so much now. We will probably try again because of the nostalgia, and we love the reservoir. But come on. We pay more and we expect a clean restroom at least

Was looking forward to this campsite in the Trinity Alps region of CA. When I arrived I was shocked to see a very empty campground and most of the trees marked up with brighly colored paint (due for 'thinning'; very heavy thinning IMHO). The 'lake' is way down so the shoreline is fairly ugly red gravel/sand. Facilities were not topnotch. So I cannot say I highly recommend this campsite.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
