We really enjoyed our stay at Lynx Campground site #D19. The double campsite worked well for our two 20ft. camper vans. The ramada with two picnic tables was also very handy. It kept the sun off of us during the afternoon. We enjoyed hiking down and around the lake in the late afternoon, and in the morning we ate breakfast at Lynx Cafe. All in all it was a very good experience.

Always a great campground, been going to Lynx Lake for over 30 years! We have seen so many changes and improvements. This year's host was ok, really was not doing anything in between campers. The other host was down at the boat ramp watching people fish, weird but they also left everyone alone.

We have camped here several times and have always enjoyed it. In the past, the host has kept toilet area clean and the site prepared for a new guest. This time, however, the camp host was unavailable during the full 3 days we were there. The trash in the vault toilet building was overflowing and never emptied. For this reason, I cannot give more than 3 stars.
