Lynx is beautiful campground professionally managed by wonderful hosts who's priority is maintaing cleanliness and order throughout the grounds for their guests to enjoy. Sites are breathtaking, well-spaced for maximum privacy and connected to winding trails teaming with wildlife, beautiful flora and fauna. Easy access to town. Highly recommended!

I went with family and stayed for 2 days and felt really good. Min cellphone signals so only thing is to spend time with self and family. Loved the spot. It was cleaned and swept by the time we reached at 4PM. Washrooms are clean. The foxes 🦊 sounds at the night was chilling experience

Had an amazing time this last weekend for my birthday on the 16th. Manny and Sheila were excellent hostess and gave information to us about bears, mountain lions, and Rattlesnakes. Also they were so kind to my daughter which awesome. Not only that they gave my daughter a necklace they make as souvenir to remember that place for her first camping trip

This campground was one of the friendliest and best maintained. The bathrooms were clean and well-attended, our campground was swept, and the site attendants were very friendly when they checked in on us. We took five families and rented basically an entire loop and everyone remarked on what a great experience it was.
