Buckhorn Creek

Site E138 has a large tree that obstructs ingress & egress. A very large hole along the site entrance is enough to swallow a semi-truck. Well it’s an exaggeration but a very large hole to sink a R12 dual tire in to the axel. Beautiful site and loved it.

Buckhorn is our favorite area for camping on the Lake O’ the Pines

Our favorite place !!! Love Lake of the Pines !!! This place is ALWAYS spotless......no trash at all......ever.

Office was very friendly and helpful

Beautiful park. Sites and park overall well maintained.

We loved our weekend getaway! Very clean and easy to access.

Can’t wait to visit again!! Beautiful, and clean park.

We arrived to have someone else in our spot! It was an hour before check in tome at 2! I called
The office then sent the volunteer down and he told us we had to call and see if someone was in our spot before coming’. We have camped
many times at this lake and never had an issue! We were made to feel as if this was our fault for showing up early! There was no one at the camp packing up to move. The volunteers at
the gate called
The number on the reservation and the mother of the occupant showed up and was upset because we wanted them to move. They finally moved to a different spot about 4;30 which was two and a half hours on our dollar! I have never been treated this way by a Corp of
Engineer park ever!

Sites are close together. Closest restroom was out of service .

If you are not 55+ this campground is probably not for you. We stayed three nights and while we absolutely loved the site location, and serenity of the campground the gate keeper made it clear he has a problem with younger couples with children. (Note: we barely left our motorhome due to work obligations, did not have unleashed dogs running around like other campers, and our kids were quieter than people outside around the fire at night). Perhaps it was because of a misunderstanding when I went to reserve our second night there and tried to pay cash (cash is not acceptable due to covid-19 which isn't a big deal) but the gentleman at the gate immediately drove back to our campsite (which is at the farthest corner of the campground and I walked therw 6 months pregnant so I couldn't exactly sprint back) to tell us at 2:24 as we're waiting for payment transfers to clear that we need to pay online or leave, which we were ALREADY doing. Despite this we still paid for another two nights yet I watched the gate keeper park in front of our motorhome each afternoon verifying our reservation. As if this harassment wasn't enough to make us feel unwelcome, as we're packing up to checkout by 2pm on our day of departure he starts calling our phone at 1:47 over and over to tell us we NEED to contact the gate immediately because checkout is at 2pm. It wasn't 2pm and we won't even mention all the 55+ campers he allowed to check in starting at 9am. (Note: Every other camper we came into contact with at this campsite was sweet as pie and so respectful). Unfortunately the gate keepers attitude essentially just ruined the stay.
