This was the worst camping experience I’ve ever had. Campground host is incredibly rude and targeted us. He used nasty language and was incredibly sexist. Don’t come here if you have dogs, he approached our dogs and then complained that they barked when a strange man walked up to them. His own dogs were howling frequently, off leash and walking in the street. Everyday he came by our site multiple times and yelled at us. Incredibly rude and unprofessional. Will never stay here again.

Host and site was great. Took the road going next to the site (431/76) further and hiked a short distance on the Buffalo Peaks and Salt Creek Trail Loop. Water didn't work at the time and T-Mobile service was available on the Northern side of the campground.

We stayed at Buffalo Springs C.G. during the middle of the week and almost had the place to ourselves. There are lots of trees which makes for a very peaceful stay. The campground is very well maintained!
