Beautiful campsite on the edge of Buckhorn Lake backwaters. Very clean, nice for family camping.
The camp host person (didnt get her name) was very helpful and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay!

Buckhorn is a nice, small campground. The bathrooms were very clean and everyone was super friendly. We sat in our campsite and watched turtles foating and fish jumping. Our cell service was spotty.

We love this campground. It is quiet, well maintained, clean bathrooms, fantastic playground and basketball and sand volleyball courts for kids as well as access to the spillway for fishing. It’s our family favorite campground. Highly recommend if your goal is a peacefully relaxing camping experience.

We really enjoy the rest and relaxation of being in the outdoors. Such a peaceful atmosphere. One of our favorite things to do is fish. We love meeting new campers and making new friends each time we come. The camping attendants are so nice and helpful here.
