What campers say

Eldon Hazlet State Recreation Area offers large Carlyle Lake views and a mix of camping options including cabins, electric sites and primitive coves. Amenities include a camp store, clean shower houses with hot water, a zero‑entry pool (fee), paved roads and trails, boat ramps, and many sites with 30/50 amp hookups plus a dump station. Families enjoy fishing, boating and shoreline spots. Expect older but generally well‑kept cabins and campsites; some cabins lack accessibility and a few units show maintenance issues. Water hookups can be limited and some lake access is steep, so plan accordingly.
