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.

On the good part the price is great, free dump station and shower is free, on the bad side bathrooms are really dirty and shower was plugged up, and half the bathrooms are closed so you have to walk a mile or more to get to a bathroom that is open. There is host there but they don't clean or take care of it.

We stayed two nights. The campsite wasn’t crowded the first night and it was very warm! (End of June) Second night was very windy and became a little more crowded as could be expected (we stayed a Wednesday and Thursday night. Camping neighbors were amazing people! Bring extra tent stakes, firewood and sunscreen and it’s a great time! We even did it with a 6 week old baby!

We have always enjoyed our stays at Buckhorn. This trip was different. The bathrooms were filthy and showers n toilets were clogged up. We even volunteered to help out. But the rangers said no. We applied to help. But turned away. Sad but true. Not sure if we will come back until plumbing is fixed. Its a nice place on the Loop and down at the lake.
