This location was beautiful. Our site had a direct view of the lake and the sunset. We had deer run through and graze right around us. The site was well situated with the parking right next to the picnic table/fire pit area. Only thing is we were quite close to other camp sites and there wasn't much in terms of privacy. The trash was also over-flowing. There were only a few mosquitos but lots of small flies/moths.

This location was quiet and nice. Shower and restroom on site was clean. The lake was disappointing since I was expecting to play in water and fish.

Not very well maintained and dirty. Water in reservoir was low, neighbors were loud and obnoxious. Will not visit again.

Gorgeous site. The water was so low we could walk around the reservoir for miles. It was beautiful to see the old trees, desiccated by the water, like standing driftwood. The old-fashioned metal pump gave delicious, sparkling clear, cold water, about 12oz a pump. Wonderful sunrises and sunsets, fascinating flora. I would have liked to take a swim but it isn't recommended right now. The ride down Highway 66 towards Ashland around sunrise the next day was one of the best I've done.

The sites are nice and shady. The bathrooms are clean. The only problem was how low the water was. It was hard to launch even a SUP. And the seaweed kept catching on my scagg. Also, I heard a “rumor” that there are leeches in the water. That didn’t keep me out of the lake, but I was VERY careful.;)

I enjoyed it here. It's not heavily wooded where I was so I wasn't often bothered by anyone around me making much if any noise. It's nice just to sit and watch the wildlife and the crows living in the woods nearby were amusing to listen to. The lake was a bit low while I was here which was fine by me since I don't own a boat and didn't come to use the lake as much as just to sit by the water and watch the wildlife. Nice place to get away from the usual noisy hordes of campers that seem to inhabit most other campgrounds. Kind of a hidden gem of sorts and so shhh, don't tell anyone.

We enjoyed being at Hyatt even though the water was very low. Wildlife was abundant. However smoke came in on Saturday and made it challenging to be outside.

great location. campsite was great, bathrooms and showers were clean. water level was extremely low, but that was fine since we only stayed one night. for the most part the campground is fairly quiet, aside from the noise from the birds and geese in the lake reservoir making noises throughout the night.

This horse camp would be a 5 star location if the camp sights were leveled for large trailers, we really enjoyed it there. Water in the camp would great too. The horses drink allot of water. It was sad to see Hyatt lake so very low on water. We will return next year.
