About Hyatt Lake Recreation Area

Nestled high in the Cascade Mountains among towering firs and pines, the Hyatt Lake Recreation Area is located in the northern corner of Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument on the shores of beautiful Hyatt Lake. At just above 5 ft of elevation, the 745-acre Hyatt Lake Recreation Area provides options for summertime camping, picnicking, hiking, horseback riding, biking, fishing, swimming, boating, and many other recreation opportunities. The recreation area offers dramatic views of Mt. McLoughlin and serves as a great basecamp for access to the Monument and the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail. Day-use is on a first-come, first-served basis and permits may be obtained at the self-service pay stations located at the main campground entrance and Wildcat Campground.

This place is such a gem! Beautiful surroundings, quiet, perfect weather, nice showers, some service, great hikes nearby. We actually extended our trip by a day because we had only booked one night here but we loved the site and area so much we added another. The hosts are so helpful and friendly as well!

Site 25 is an easy back in with ample room for shorter trailers to open slides. The facilities are clean and the water is hot. The hosts are polite and professional with the mindset of continuous improvement of the campground.

Wild Cat campground (Hyatt Lake) is a favorite of ours. We really appreciate the recently planted Aspen groves placed around the campground. They were thoughtfully located and appear to be doing well.

Beautiful area outside of Ashland. Close to a small resort but you need to bring everything with you. The lake itself is pretty muddy but there’s lots of wildlife. The sites are large and have areas for some privacy.
