About
Wildcat Recreation Area Campground is a developed U.S. Army Corps of Engineers facility on the western shore of Eastman Lake, located about 30 miles northeast of Madera in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The campground provides 19 campsites: 16 standard nonelectric sites and 3 equestrian sites equipped with horse corrals. All sites are nonelectric, making this a solid option for tent campers and self-contained RVs. Amenities include vault toilets, potable water, fire pits, BBQs, and picnic tables. Campers have access to showers. The nearest general store and fuel services are approximately 20 miles away, so arrive prepared with supplies. Eastman Lake was designated California's first Trophy Bass Fishery by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, making it a prime destination for anglers. Beyond fishing, the lake supports boating, canoeing, birding, and wildlife viewing. The Sierra National Forest is a short drive to the east for additional hiking and recreation opportunities.
Directions
From Highway 99, travel east on Avenue 26 then north on Road 29 and follow signs to the campground. Address: 32175 Road 29, Raymond, CA 93653.
