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.

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.

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!

Despite our rig not fitting into the original site that we booked we were able to fit into another site that the ranger has showed us. The butterflies were everywhere, the campground was quiet, the ranger and camp hosts were nice. The bathrooms have free showers for campers and flush toilets. They could've been a lot cleaner. There is a fill and dump site at the campground. Kayaking on the water is amazing when it is a no wake lake (10 mph I think). The fishing was great!

The sites were clean. The hosts were very helpful. Free showers were awesome- one ran out of hot water on occasion but we just walked to the other. We were hoping there would be good swimming there but the lake didn’t look the best for it. Overall would return!

We stayed at Hyatt lake on Thursday and Friday nights. The sites are very well spread out and private. Lots of shade. Bathroom and showers were totally fine. We hiked on the PCT (beautiful), and kayaked on the lake using the campground put in

The lake is FULL! It's so beautiful at Wildcat, a bird watcher's paradise. they did a lot of work during the off-season, burning slash and planting trees between the campsites. Our favorite camping spot will be even prettier in a year or so.
