Harassment, racial profiling, my kid crying and the host gets bothered , kids can’t talk or cry . No music is allowed during the day she got bothered because it was Spanish movie .
-But others can be loud and talk loud in the night and passed curfew . Worst camping experience ever! Being babysat annoyed I would not recommend this camping site ! A Karen lives there! I also have a video where she tries to twist the story !

We absolutely loved this campground and can’t wait to return! The site was awesome, the bathrooms and honestly the entire campground including the trails were all clean and well maintained. The staff was very friendly. It’s definitely going on the list of favorites.

I guess maybe I’m a little naïve but when I go camping to spots, that do not have hook ups. I assume people are just camping, enjoying nature, listening to the beautiful birds. Unfortunately, all I heard was generators running!! It wasn’t the experience I was hoping for didn’t even stay my three days left two days early. Stayed on some BLM land close by where it was nice and peaceful quiet was able to really enjoy nature.

My son and I enjoyed our time at Lynx Lake Campground. We were first time visitors.
Unfortunately I didn't find out till after the fact that I didn't have to pay the parking fee at the Lake since I was already staying at the campground. So make sure to ask the camp host for a free pass to put on your dash.
Hope you won't mind flies in the stalls and lil mice roaming around the campground. Squirrels are bold so don't leave anything out. Don't mind the coyotes howling in the night.
There is a water pump available near the restroom building for filling up water jugs which I wish I knew about sooner.
If you go in the summer, don't forget sunscreen. We got sunburned the first day hiking around the Lake. It's a nice hike!
