Hyatt Lake Recreation Area

Gorgeous campsite. And lovely hike on the PCT!

Made a last minute reservation and just stayed for a night. It was quiet and serene by the lake, with beautiful opportunities to watch for birds. Definitely appreciated my mosquito repellents!

Our usual trip to Hyatt Lake Horsecamp was excllent. The camp hosts were awesome.!

The camp hosts at Hyatt Lake Recreation area were EXCELLENT! We initially reserved a site that wasn't ideal for our size toy hauler, and they helped us transfer to another one. When backing in was complicated by stumps in the way, they cut the stumps out to make it easier. Not only were they friendly and personable, they went over the top to help our time at the campground be enjoyable. They get 10 stars. The campground gets four stars because the it was made in the 60's, making access to larger sites difficult.

After we were set we took inventory and for a 34' toy hauler, reserve one of these sites: A16 near bathroom path, A3 pull through, can't use awning, have to go down hill to table, B28 nicely private but no lake view, C31 leveling might be a challenge but beautiful view of lake, C39 lake view but can't use awning, C43 lake view but small landing by door, C44 door faces away from lake, near bathroom, nice lake view. FOR WILDCAT: 1 needs a bit of leveling, 2 nice site, 3 awning would bump trees but good otherwise, 5 pull through would have to drive loop backwards to enter but nice site, 10 nice with close neighbors, 9 nice with close neighbors. 9 and 10 together would be great if traveling with another family.

Check lake levels before you go, Boat ramp A was closed due to low water, but ramp C and wildcat ramp were open.

Lovely lake campsite with clean bathrooms.

I reserved a spot but when we arrived we couldn't even fit a suv in the spot even though on the reservation I selected 2 vehicles and 5 to 6 people. That was the first problem, the second was there wasn't room to put up even one tent! We tried multiple ways for about 30 minutes before having to just look elsewhere. We didn't find another place at another lake until 1am. So I paid for that spot at Hyatt and wasn't able to stay then had to pay for another site elsewhere.

Only stayed one night during the weekday, it was pretty empty. Campsites are nicely spaced out, some have view of the lake. Roomy bathrooms with showers (didn’t get a shower). Had a great conversation with the hosts. Campgrounds is a bit of a distance from the nearest town, so make sure you fuel/stock up before going.

My favorite campground, awesome bird watching. I had one peaceful day and night until a rowdy group of two families
came the next day. Screaming, cussing, dogs barking, and kids yelling.
I left a day early, has happened before, I think I'm giving up my favorite place to camp.

The camp host Kim was fantastic, so helpful and accommodating and just generally cheerful. Facilities were clean, campground was beautiful and we had a wonderful time.

This is a beautiful campground. It's well-run by hosts Deb and Dave. They are compassionately strict, kids safety first. Quiet time is enforced, and the campsites are well laid out, spacious and clean. Bathrooms are heated, with hot showers. You just can't go wrong staying here.
