Very well maintained facilities. Many trails to hike. Short distance to Lake. Everything was great. Will definitely come here again. Only wish water level in the lake wasn't so low.

Had a great time camping at Lynx for the fourth; the campsite was pristine, the neighbors were quiet, the road noise was bearable - there WERE a lot of bees around the water pumps, so take that into consideration if you have an allergy. Otherwise, would absolutely stay again.

Site was very clean and well-kept. Park ranger (shout out Mark) was friendly and knowledgeable! Lake access was easy, and a good amount of hikes around this campsite. Would come again!

I had site B06. I was happy with this site. Perfect for a single vehicle. There appears to be 3 campsites for each letter. I like that. My site was close to the restroom and drinkable water spout. We went tor a hike around lynx lake. There is a trail #305 to #311 near the site that takes you to the lake.
A total of 3 mi mostly easy some parts moderate.
My friend had site B05 that could fit 4 cars. Had two tables and a Ramada. Prime site. windy at times. no service. Tmobile at site B05. limited service at B06 two bars tmobile. Trash receptable gets locked down at around 7pm. Kayak rentals at the lake are available.

We had the most amazing weekend at Lynx Campground celebrating my mom’s 50th birthday! The campground was clean, peaceful, and so well maintained. The lake was beautiful, and the scenery was incredible.

The campsite bathrooms were kept clean, and everything was easy to access. It was the perfect place for families with kids because there was so much room to explore while still feeling safe and quiet.

This weekend became one of our favorite family memories, and Lynx Campground was a huge part of that. We couldn’t have picked a better place to celebrate such a special milestone. We will absolutely be coming back!

We had two spaces reserved. When we arrived, both were clean, raked, and ready for us. The host was friendly and helpful, and the spacing between sites was fast enough that other campers didn't bother us and we didn't bother them. It's a great campsite.
