Link Creek

Overall nice campground and lake site. Trash needs to be emptied more often- overflowing on a Thursday when we got there. No real sign of a host (although I did track them down when needed). Half the campground was empty even though all sites appeared reserved. Sad that they were not open for others to use. DON'T RESERVE IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO SHOW UP!

Link creek camp ground was great. There was nice shade in our campsite. So even in the heat of the day we could get away from it. The walk to the lake was easy and we enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding for the duration of our stay.

Beautiful camp spots with lots of room located on the less windy side of the lake. The campgrounds are maintained but have a nice natural feel.
We had a great time and will return again.

We love Link Creek … this is our fourth time camping there. A negative issue is that some sites, including the one next to ours, had 4 vehicles, 8 tents and 24 campers in a single site with a max number of 12 people, 1 large and one small tent. They also went and brought back two pickup loads of firewood scavenged from somewhere. Having served for several years as campground hosts for at 2 Oregon state parks and a large county campground, we routinely walked and drove through the grounds each day. In 6 days, we saw a host only twice. This overly populated site definitely had a negative effect on our time there. I saw the same issue at several other sites, as well as at South shore.

Really nice place

The place was great! Our yurt site was the best, very spacious yet private and close to the water spigot. Camp host was very friendly and bathrooms were clean. The nearest bathroom was a walk, which is good, since apparently they smell for some reason, even though they are perfectly clean. The lake was very pretty and we brought SUP. Fish were jumping around at sunset but we did not catch any :) The trail around the lake is a must do and is very beautiful as well. 2-3 hours round trip.
The chipmunks are everywhere and have no shame. They carried away half of a hot dog, a baked potato and chewed through the garbage bag. So don't leave anything outside, day or night.
Overall the place is great and we would love to come back.

Leah and George are OUTSTANDING camp hosts. We spent a lot of time with them on their off time, which isn't much. I have been going to Suttle lake since I was 9 months old. It is a beautiful place. The yurts are comfortable and well maintained.

Great time!

We love Link Creek. The only issue this time was the green algae in the water. We were surprised as it is only mid July. Don't think there is much that can be done about it. There were not any signs posted warning guests about it. We did not even put our kayak or paddle board in the water.

The yurts are great! Each one has enough room for 4 people easily maybe even 5. They were within walking distance to the lake so we could easily transport our SUP boards. Plenty of tree cover for shade and a picnic table and fire pit at each yurt. My only complaint really is that there were several overfilled garbage cans that weren't able to completely shut around the site which gave off a foul scent. We also had dinner at the boathouse at the lodge across the lake but its about a 1.5 mi walk so def worth it to drive. Overall a great experience! Coming back in October!
