This is a very nice area and we enjoy staying here, however, the loop C road is narrow. It's difficult to back into your site when vehicles are pulled off to the side or extending out into the road.

We stayed 8 nights at this campground which was so clean and well maintained during late April and early May. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed visiting the Chickasaw National Recreation Area hiking trails, especially along the lovely springs, the Lincoln Bridge, and the amazing Buckthorn Campground with our two dogs. Our dogs were not allowed at the springs area, but welcomed everywhere else. We also enjoyed the fried pies from the Arbuckle Mountain Fried Pie company nearby.

This was my third visit to this buckhorn loop c and the first time I stayed in this campsite. I immediately noticed a lot of trash and cigarette butts littered throughout the site. It looked like previous campers dumped oil on the ground and in the campfire ring. There were several wasps that must be from the huge nests that are in the gables of the bathroom building.

What a great campsite. Parking is elevated from the campground platform, so there's 3 steps down. There were great trees for hanging hammocks too. A good distance to the service center for showers and bathrooms, which were very clean! TMobile cell reception was spotty.
