Camping at Hayward Flat near Redding

Public campground · Redding · 84 campsites

A forested campground near trout fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Hayward Flat sits along one of Trinity Lake's more active arms, shaded by Ponderosa pines and Douglas firs and threaded with reminders of the area's Placer mining past interpretive signs and scattered relics make the campground part outdoor basecamp, part informal history stop. Water is the draw: the Dogwood and Elderberry loops (22 and 18 sites respectively) offer lake views and informal boat mooring, while a boat ramp and marina are about three miles away for larger launches; water-skiing, power and non-motorized boating, swimming and fishing are the day-to-day rhythm here.

“Spot #69 was nice and flat. Perfect spot to place multiple tents. Short walk to the water. Will definitely be visiting again. ”

How far ahead to book Hayward Flat

For June weekends, book about 180 days ahead. Three in four June Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 118 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

August32 days ahead117 days ahead67 days ahead157 days ahead
September13 days ahead27 days ahead——

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (3,716 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
