What Guests Are Saying
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.

Not too many spaces but mine was pretty level and plenty of room in the spots. I did not use any facilities but the grounds were well maintained. Beautiful serene views. I'll be back!

We loved our site by the lake. It was windy, but we bundled up and spent most of our time enjoying the hiking trails. Afternoons were less windy and very pleasant. Beautiful! we will be back!

Clean quiet campground. Beautiful hiking and wildflowers in the Spring. The reservoir water levels are still really low for some reason. Roads and camp sites need some repair work.

Outstanding campground! We were at site BH13. We camped in a travel trailer. It was clean and level, all we had to do was level front to back. We hiked for about 2miles at Buckhorn Trail. We camped on April 1 2023. I rebooked for a future date to try a different campground.

We were only here for one night, this was a very nice pull through spot. The campground and boat ramp were very nice.
