Buckhorn Campground (Chickasaw)

Very beautiful and peaceful. Returning for more in 2 weeks.

Beautiful Park! We loved our trail hike trail 1 and trail 4. We hunted all our down fall wood and enjoyed being in and interacting with the woods and fishing. Thank you!

Nice and clean campgrounds. I to tent camp here.

We were totally unfamiliar with the Chickasaw National Rec Area. So when the direction took us to the visitors center (remember, driving a large rig here) we couldn't just stop and park so we continued on. I quickly pulled our reservation and typed in Buckhorn. Much to my surprise it was a "known" destination. I just wonder with all the emails sent prior to the trip something couldn't have been said about the direction. Here we were probably 8 mi away from what looked to be an interesting area that would have been nice to be able to explore. Here again, we knew nothing of the area and what was available. Buckhorn itself was pretty, hilly and the site seemed to be nice, at least ours was. However, where are the trails? There was one noted on a map but we never found it. I think you had to traverse down a busy road. Great idea if you have kids on bikes huh? Would we come back? No. We were disappointed. The only walks we took were around the Buckhorn sites and the lake. Not enough to keep you busy and challenged.

Nice camp sites, good camp host, incredibly clean restrooms/showers.

The camp host was friendly and helpful. The shower house and restrooms were very clean. I liked that the park is a good distance from the closest town - close enough to visit, but not a lot of traffic. I wish there was better internet reception.

Beautiful sites, friendly camp host, beautiful lake view and clean, fully stocked bathroom facilities.

December is a great time to visit the park if you want to experience the serene stillness of the wood and lake. We mornings weren't too cold and the afternoons were splendid.

The host was friendly and kind. We enjoyed meeting him. We had a great campfire thanks to him

Wonderful place. Meet up with many forest and prairie animals. Extraordinarily warm weather - enjoyed a quick dip in the brisk water. Liked hanging out at the springs and nature center. Very well maintained facilities.
