Buckhorn Campground offers beautiful views and spacious sites, making it a great location for rustic camping. Many guests appreciated the cleanliness of the porta-potties and the peaceful environment, especially during off-peak times. However, the lack of functional restrooms, noise from nearby generators, and occasional pest issues detracted from the overall experience, leading to mixed reviews about maintenance and amenities.

I love Buckhorn. It was quiet this weekend. I love riding my bike around the roads and campgrounds. I got 25 mi in. Cheyanne the park ranger was so friendly. It was a great windy day to fly kites on Saturday.

Johnny on the spot comes frequently to clean the port a pottys since the restrooms are closed. The lake is low on August. Better to go in the early part of summer.

They shutdown the Buchhorn Camp completely last year for “repairs”.
Now, it’s much worse than before. Not only were there not any repairs done, but now the bathroom facilities are shut down, no on-going maintenance, or clean-up to sites from prior campers.
There aren’t any “hosts” as there were in prior years to help.
Also, the wind generator that I’ve only seen operating once since it’s installation, and a power generating hydraulic dam a mile away….is replaced by a rented (for over a year now) power generator that drones 24/7 over the camping area.
The place has never been this bad….but hey, the staff got a new office facility!

I paid for 2 nights and only stayed one. Once the sun went down there were THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of cockroaches EVERYWHERE, big and small, no exaggeration. Also 2 baby rattlesnakes just feet away from the campfire- which is scary but doesn't bother me like the overwhelming amount of roaches. We slept in the car and left as soon as we woke up. I wanted to refund the second night but decided not to bother.

Camp site was good, but noise was ridiculous. Group campground across the street literally played non stop live (no joke they had a whole instrument set up and different singers) rock/metal music from 9am to 1am both days I was there. No breaks, and no experience. It'd be one thing if they were decent, but they were not.
