Link Creek

Been coming here my whole life and it just keeps getting better.
Looks like they may have algae blooms this year, but they were delayed because of the moderate weather we've had so far. Just be careful moving forward...best to just ask the park rangers!

George and Leah are fantastic! Very helpful and friendly!
They made our stay extra special with their kindness!
Thanks for everything!
You're the best!

Great. Clean bathrooms and great hosts. People next to us were pretty loud after hours but it was addressed. Dogs running around unleashed. Garbage was well handled. Friendly hosts. Excited for next year.

A busy, family-friendly lake. Clean, nicely kept up, helpful host. A surprising number of sites were marked as reserved but unoccupied even on Friday night.

- Hike around Suttle Lake was short but pretty
- Scout Lake: easy drive to nearby smaller lake to splash around
- Metolius Preserves: nice shorter hikes with a good flavor of the area
- Small lakes south of the Corbett sno-park on NF-2076: every one we stopped at was crowded mid week
- Hiking beside the Metolius River (got a good map at the Wizard Falls Hatchery): very pretty!

Sites are near the lake. Difficult to drive and park trailers.
Very busy and noisy.

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!

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.

Great time!

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.

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.
