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.

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.

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.

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!

Camp host very cordial. The campground grounds could use some maintenance in some sites. Mostly cleanup. Many sites were tidy but others could use a good raking. Dock needs the sand swept off. Minor issues .

Fantastic trip out to Link Creek. A bit windier on the lodge side than we expected, but the boat launch area by the campgrounds was calm. Scout Lake was a nice little swimming hole for the kids, and it's close enough to Clear Lake to shoot over there if anything is off at Suttle with the weather. We were next to a giant family that was loud and partying, but at the same time they shut things down at around 10:30 so it wasn't like it was unbearable. Camp host Leia helped tend to one thing we had happen and was great. Great spot and fits us well. We'll be back!!
