Link Creek offers a beautiful campground with spacious, clean sites and great access to the lake, making it ideal for family gatherings and outdoor activities. Many guests appreciated the friendly staff and well-maintained facilities, including yurts that provide comfort.

campground in need of some landscape cleanup as many leftover branches from recent danger tree removal. No fresh potable water and it seems like it won't be back on anytime soon. Camp host (contractor) seemed overwhelmed with two many campgrounds to maintain. A danger tree still existed just across site 2 which caused me to park my truck behind trailer as the tree is listing substantially with soil bulging at base. Campground was nice and quite due to weather so we were very happy about that. We'll be back

Our visit was early spring so we enjoyed a mountain rain storm as expected. Link Creek is a beautiful campground operated by the US Forest Service. Clean and quite. There is a easy trail that encircles the Suttle lake for about 3 1/2 mi, the lodge is at the halfway point. The marina offers canoe and paddle board rentals. Make sure to watch the eagles catch fish even if you don,t. Brown trout and Kokanee are in there somewhere.

Nice campground. Need better site descriptions. My 28 ft trailer and pickup would not come close to fitting the site I reserved based on site descriptions. Fortunatly, there was another site open for my dates that was adequate

No fish biting, apparently we must have caught them all back in the 00’s. Water is cold. No OHV’s permitted. If you are from out of state don’t waste your time driving here, the campground is full (of Oregonians). ✌🏻

The yurt was fantastic. Your has bunks, couch, wood stove, coffee table and table with 2 chairs. Nice ramp to walk up to the door.

The only downside was the water was not turned on yet throughout the campground. The host told us there was only 1 certified person to turn on the water in all Dechutes campgrounds.
Bathrooms we clean and lots of toilet paper.
The boat ramp at Link Creek campground was perfect. Easy access and perfect slope for loading/unloading. Easy parking.

We had never been camping in a yurt before, or in the winter either. Not only do we love camping at Link Creek in the summer, but Wow! What an absolutely beautiful place to be in the winter time. So peaceful, and having a cozy wood stove to warm up to made it that much better. Seeing the stars through the skylight in the roof was the cherry on top of a great experience!

What a fantastic winter getaway! At the time of this review, typing “Link Creek Campground” into Apple Maps will not take you to the correct location. Google Maps, however, will get you to where you need to go. The yurt is very spacious and has a bunk bed (a full mattress on bottom and a twin mattress on top), a futon, a coffee table, and a small dining table with two chairs. The wood stove heats the yurt within an hour, but it is on the smaller side so make sure you bring something to cut down any firewood to fit. The campground bathrooms were unlocked and useable during our stay in mid-December. There is a fire pit and a picnic table right outside the yurt. I have AT&T and there was no service inside the yurt, but I was able to get an occasional bar or two when I stepped outside. The closest town is Sisters which is approximately 20 minutes away and has lots of small businesses and shops if you need any supplies. There is no electricity inside the yurt so don’t forget your own lighting source(s). Overall, this was an amazing spot to spend a few nights and I can’t recommend it enough.
