My first time solo camping. The camp ground is super clean and the ranger was really nice.

@GregP7824948 · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #42

Great place, great camp host J and Terri. Wild life around, turkeys, rabbits, mountain lion and fish jumping. Fun kayaking around lake, did it in two days at a slow pace. Will be back for sure

@ClarissaW62556 · Camped on Jul 4, 2025 at Campsite #W18

We had an amazing trip here. Staff were great! Loved our site it was very spacious. I would have given it 5/5 stars however our site was the only one that had cold running water and not the greatest shower pressure.

@Christian35339 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #NGA

@MarkW2201412 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #NGB

Tons of space, nice views and nice amenities

@AngelaH869D51B · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #44

Small pretty campground. The dumpsite is before you enter the campground to the left. They have bathrooms with 1 shower in each. The lake was really low but you were able to still get to it. They lowered the ramp some for boats. Sites were level. W&E hookups. There is nothing out there, the closest store is about 35 mins away so make sure to get gas and stock up before heading out there.

@SandeepYC2EA6D · Camped on Jun 7, 2025 at Campsite #9

Good quite site with access to the necessary amenities. Water was great to swim as well.

@AnitaE2F106E67 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #40

The camp sites were very clean, trash was pickup regularly. The camp hosts were very attentive and even called us when they had not seen our vehicle in a couple of days.We worried about snakes since we had two little ones and a dog, but we never saw any.I would recommend this site

@CliffordACCB2A · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #31

My go to spot, had a quite weekend, will always go back.

@ANAAB344F8416C · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #46

I really enjoy spending time at Codorniz Campground. I go at least once a month. It is a beautiful place to relax and be in connection with nature. Just be careful with the snakes, in my last visit I saw a snake moving across by the ground right in my campsite. I recommend this place, just be respectful of nature.

@SamB6988985 · Camped on Jun 3, 2025 at Campsite #41

Love this place

@EmelGEC994B608 · Camped on May 25, 2025 at Campsite #12

Nice campsite but campers were up till 3 am drinking and being loud , zero rangers around

@SarinC60557F69 · Camped on May 24, 2025 at Campsite #24

The lake was so inviting... Saw a lot of RVers over the memorial weekend. Not much shade around so come with your canopies

@AnnaK4787091 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #W01

Campgrounds were clean a spacious with plenty of space e between campsites. Bathrooms also clean and spacious with working showers. Peaceful place.

@donnaK1849426 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #2

Beautiful campground on the lake. The grounds were clean and well maintained and the camp hosts were knowledgeable and welcoming.

@DanielD4395113 · Camped on May 10, 2025 at Campsite #W12

Had very great time even got to meet the park volunteers which are very kind and told us some other sites will be back we had a wild turkey and its babys walk through the camp

@Justinv1EB7DD4 · Camped on May 2, 2025 at Campsite #9

Really good camping ground. Overlooks the lake. The only downside is that it is the only path that goes down to the lake from that area so youll have multiple random people walking through your campsite to go down the path.

@BenD1731382 · Camped on Apr 30, 2025 at Campsite #4

This was our first time to Eastman Lake and Cordoniz, but it won't be our last.We were impressed by many things. the campground is in beautiful condition. Everything (hot water, showers, tables, water near the campsites, lights) worked properly. the hosts, J and Terry, were friendly and well-informed, and are doing a great job. We were in Campsite #4, and were blown away by the view of the lake and surrounding hills. There were lots of birds, who got used to us in a few hours, and were busy around our camp. Our only complaint is a minor one: the signage directing you to the exits is random and hard to follow. This camp isn't very big, but it is confusing, especially because many of the roads are marked as one way, that that seemed to never by the way we wanted to go! However, we figured it out, and really enjoyed our stay at Cordoniz!

@michaelg734741 · Camped on Apr 24, 2025 at Campsite #9

Decent campground for a longer stay. I used it as an overnighter and back to Hwy 99 which is a bit of a drive.

@VictorD9A423C5 · Camped on Apr 19, 2025 at Campsite #31

Space 31 is great. We visited in April. It has ample flat ground for comfortable tent sleeping. Our party of 6 was able to fit two 6 person tents with plenty of room leftover. The trees provided some shade but especially on hot months an EZ UP is recommended. The restrooms found within walking distance were clean and stocked. We spent 2 nights and couldnt have been happier. The campsite keepers were so friendly and very helpful with any questions we had. We hiked the trail, we fished, swam in the lake and enjoyed the nature. We highly recommended codorniz.

@MarieM9095188 · Camped on Apr 17, 2025 at Campsite #49

We had site 49. Water, 50 amp, firepit and picnic table. Sand and asphalt. Ranger met us as we were setting up. Very polite.

@ChazInSoCal - CA

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
