Beware! Don’t stay here. The lake is haunted and the forest is infested with giant skunks.

We LOVED this campground and our host! We were very impressed with the setup of most of the sites, and even though the grounds are set just outside of suburbia, we still felt like we were "out there" once in the campground
We booked #12, which is set down a little from the road and surrounded by mostly trees. And just a quick 5 min walk through the woods to the lake. We were so happy with our site selection! We had originally booked #10, but when we got there we saw how close it was to the bathroom. And it smelled. The site is set downhill and down wind from the bathroom and I would bet it smells quite often. I would NOT recommend booking #10. It's such a shame because its a cozy little site!

Excellent! The caretaker was super friendly and helpful. The areas are so well maintained and our loop had a flushing toilet! Not to mention how incredibly beautiful it is.

This was our first visit to Lynx Campground and we will definitely return! We camped on Loop D and a path down to the lake was just steps away from the campsites. The campground was quiet and peaceful and the camp host was fantastic. He was friendly and helpful as he made his rounds daily through the campground. He was also knowledgeable and advised us that it was tarantula season during our visit...which we appreciated. We saw several tarantulas during our 4 night stay, which we may have missed has the host not made us aware! The sites and grounds are well maintained and the campground is in close proximity to the amenities of Prescott if needed.

It was a lovely campground and close to a great little lake.. we would have enjoyed it more if we were not next to a large group of peoplevwgo partied all night, screaming, puking and fighting. According to campground rules, it’s a max of 5 people per site yet there were more, and quiet hours are at 10pm. The camp host was only a few spots from us so it was very disappointing that the rules were not enforced and it ruined our experience. People are rude and disgusting. We will probably not come back. It’s a shame because it was a beautiful and peaceful place apart from the crazy neighbors.

Nice location but pit toilets were never serviced during our stay. Our site was on a small side loop, but saw a number of cars just driving by.

Luckily the customer service individual found me a canceled reservation so I had a place to stay for the night. Much appreciated! I do think the service charge is high or should be waived if an additional reservation (due to a cancellation) should be waived.
