The camp host was absolutely amazing very helpful very friendly. We did have some super loud neighbors for a while, but they finally quieted down. The camp was clean. The camp was beautiful and the ride in there and out of there was absolutely amazing.

Our spot (A1) was shaded with a view of the lake. The restroom and shower building was cleaned daily. The camp host was friendly too.

We had a great time visiting with family and other campers in the park. The campground host was a hoot! She made our stay more fun. There were a bunch of kids riding scooters around living their best lives! This is one of my family's favorite campgrounds.

Our experience was wonderful, the sites were clean, mowed and it was quiet. This was our family reunion and we set the pavilion up to hang out for the evening, but the lights were not working ( probably because of the previous flooding). We would like to see the pavilion lights fixed so that we could spend the evening down there. We appreciate this opportunity , thank you to all that work to keep Buck Creek up and going, we have a long history of coming and staying every year!
Kind regards
