Campers next to us had little dogs that barked all day and evenings for 2 days.The forest Service started a controlled burn that caused us to leave early due to very heavy smoke.The camp host was super nice and agreed with the poor choice of starting a controlled burn the week before the campground closed.We saw many campers evacuating the campground due to the inconsiderate poor planning by the Forest Service.

Our campsite host/ranger was great! The bathroom by our site was the cleanest bathroom i have ever used while camping! We weren't thrilled about the bear sitings around us but nobody but the bear is to blame for that.

Firstly, the camp host was friendly and attentive.But the particular spot I booked was not so hot. It was close to the toilet, which up there are pit toilets, not flush toilets. I prefer them, especially as the water to the campground is still off. Been off all summer.This spot was pretty much parking on the road and walking down stairs to the lower level to do anything. There's not a stitch of privacy for this spot. And pretty much the same for shade unless you walk into the woods.Cell service was a joke!I wish spots like this didn't exist! The only good thing was solar.

I camped in a tent with my twin boys, age 4. It was their first real camping trip (not Grandma's backyard). The site was clean and spacious with a great view. Nice hiking trails, relatively quiet after dark, and wonderful weather. The proximity to the lake was perfect for a short hike. We caught and released a gopher snake and that was the highlight of the boys' adventure. The restroom was clean and well-stocked with paper. I highly recommend this campground.

Lucked out and got a REALLY nice spot pretty out of the way from other people; one very close RV spot (but they were very much quiet and kept to themselves), good location for tents and a campfire. Really good walk from loop 3 out to the lake and around. Highly recommend this one, get as Southeast as possible at this site would be my recommendation!

Wonderful and clean but I think a garbage can in each area would be nice.

While the campsite was very clean, the hosts were great, the walk to the lake itself was easy, and the lake was beautiful, the campsites are closer to one another than I had expected, and there is absolutely NO shade over the campsites. We had to go buy a pop up shade tent to put over the table and considered a second for the tent. If there were trees to cover the table and where the tents go, this would have been an amazing place to stay!

The camp ground is scrupulously maintained! Mike, one of the camp hosts, is such a positive asset to welcome campers.

The campsite is one which we have used on many occasions. It is always clean and well tended. There are bathrooms and a fresh water pump within walking distance. The people who operate the campgrounds are very friendly and check on us shortly after arriving. Lynx Campground is far enough away to feel secluded and natural, yet it is actually just 2 miles from the main highway. The lake and the Lynx Lake Cafe (open Thursday through Sunday) are a short scenic walk from the campsite. It is definitely worth the price of 28 dollars for the site, especially considering the beautiful surroundings and the convenient location. An added bonus is the 20 degrees less of heat if you are coming up from the Phoenix Valley during the summer months.

The sites are terrible and the host was very rude. We ended up leaving and going to another campsite.

The site for setting up our tents (2) was fantastic! It was a large area, level, and covered in small size granite gravel. Parking was adequate for a vehicle and tent trailer. The walk to the lake through the woods is short.
