Well maintained campground; short walk to lake from campsite. Would visit again when the lake is higher and probably not again on a Sun-Wed; because of the days we were there everything was closed.

Camp host was nice and helpful. The camp sites have excellent separation compared to most campgrounds. The site was immaculately prepared, freshly raked and clean. I’ll definitely be back.

It was easy to book our reservation, When we got to our site our name was on the lot number post! The gravel had just been raked. The site was immaculate! The Restrooms were equally if not more immaculate! The campground host came around, and was very friendly, but not intrusive. The only thing is, they take the "one way / exit only" very seriously! If you drive IN through the exit, your tires will be punctured. A bit excessive in our opinion.

The site volunteer was very cordial and helpful, even when correcting me on errors I made in setting at the wrong campsite. The sites were very well maintained.

Nice campground in the woods and they are spread apart so not on top of each other especially the double site. The lake and lots of hiking trails abound.

Lynx Lake campground is a fantastic place to car camp! The area is stunning, very short walk to the lake and the camp hosts are friendly and ensure a great stay. Highly recommend it if you are able to get a reservation...it's in very high demand because of these things.
