Hyatt Lake Recreation Area

Just a quick one-night stay, but a clean campground with water, trash, and bathroom facilities that include showers. Toilets could have been cleaner, but it’s camping so I brought my own sanitizer for the seat. Host was on sight right by my camp space. Plenty of dry wood around the camp sight for kindling or a quick-burning Fire. If you’re willing to chop up some logs there’s ample wood for a month’s worth of campfires.

Used to be a beautiful full lake, great for fishing. After recent years of drought, not much left. Sad to go back out there to see it so low. Pictures taken in 2022

Very nice campground I would give it a 5 but the water and power are under renovation. Bathrooms and showers are closed for the season but they do provide outhouses. WildCat and C loop are open but loop A and B are closed for the season until renovation are complete. You can get spring water from tub springs State Park a few miles away. The lake is a bit low but people still fish and boat.

It's a good place to hike. It would have been better if there's any water in the lake.

Visited with a small group of friends this past weekend and we got a spot at the Horse Camp. After being there for a few hours with no sign of anything off, two camp managers came by and told us that since we didn’t have a horse, we needed to leave immediately. The woman was very hostile right away and kept saying there was a sign and we should have known. They insisted to stay and wait till we were gone, even though we had four tents and quite the task before us. I had to diffuse the camp manager and insist that we did not know about that rule and would leave soon. It was quite upsetting for my group to get such a hostile confrontation as we are a very kind and understanding group. It saddens me that they assumed we would be hostile towards them, perhaps that had that happen in the past which I can understand. But they initiated all hostility which was quite unwarranted. As someone who has worked a lot of customer service and hotels, this is not how you do it. If this is happening so much, don’t let people reserve without some confirmation they are bringing a horse. Plus they are not giving any refund, which makes no sense as we were gone by 2pm. I hope they learn to not assume the worst in people. None of my group, who are local, will be interested in ever being customers for them. Future customers be warned.
