The campsites were clean, all were close to the lake and the bird songs and variety were amazing. The yellow warblers looked like canaries flitting amongst the tops of the trees. The camp hosts were very affable and helpful. This was base camp for us kayaking here, and at nearby Lake of the Woods and Fish Lake.

Had a hard time finding the camp loop, due to tree removal. Large clean sites. Quiet! VERY clean toilet area. Host came by several times to ensure everyone was satisfied and answer questions. Definitely come back to stay again if in the area.

We stopped and camped here on our road trip from Washington to Northern California. Excellent resting spot after doing bunch of activities around Diamond Lake and Crater Lake. Sunrise at the lake was something we really enjoyed. Clean and well kept campsites. Certainly worth a visit and camping at this location.

I stayed at Wildcat campground. The site was very clean and the host had used a weed eater to knock down the grass around the campsite. The camphost were very friendly. The day before I left I mentioned to the camp host I had to go to Another lake to dump cause the gates were locked going to the dump at Hyatt. He asked me what time in the morning would I need the gates open so I could dump my tanks. I thought that was great and couldn’t thank him enough. The BLM employees and the Rangers are great at Hyatt too.

Very nice location, even with the lakebed almost entirely dry. Good birding - bluebirds ( both kinds), bald eagle, pine siskins. Bring yellowjacket trap.

Had the cg almost to myself. Camp hosts stopped by to check in. They were gracious and lovely. Site and grounds well maintained. Sadly, the lake is almost non-existent now. Water was down to 2% capacity.

The hosts were more than welcoming, as well kept the grounds in amazing condition, restrooms included. Nature was against as far as not much water in the lake and fire danger not allowing campfires, was able to still enjoy ourselves. Even took the wife and kids hiking on part of the PCT. Will be camping here again in the future.
