We loved the spot. Plenty of room.

This is one of our most favorite parks and campsites that we stay in once a year. We love the double site with the huge wood deck overlooking the lake. It's gorgeous and we will continue to stay here for many more camping trips!

Very nice campground
@TinaS5EFEA16F9 · Camped on Mar 8, 2025 at Campsite #E201
The campground is extra clean, bathrooms clean and lots of hot water! The camp host,Gil, is great! He's helpful and funny and a joy to visit with. That can make or break a camping experience! Buckhorn is within 45 miles of my home so it's close and convenient for me. I also have the lifetime senior pass so it's very affordable! I'm blessed to be able to enjoy this Campground and I know whoever visits there will have a wonderful experiance!

Site E115 is an average campsite. All site utilities were functional, but water ponds at the back end of the parking pad and there are some holes that present a tripping hazard next to electrical hook up. Not many amenities such as fuel, food, firewood, hardware or ice near the park's entrance. However, I would not discourage camping at this site and would consider staying at the campground again.
@LaurenT4CE5E36 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #E139
Nice park! It would be great if there were more full hook-up sites.
@GeorgeU8022526 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #E138
We enjoyed our stay in one of the lake side sites.
@JimF2202636 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #E101
Nice campground with many sites having lakeside or lake views. Electricity was out for about 2 hours one night giving us an excuse to go into Jefferson to Don Juans' for dinner.
@TeriT8481460 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #E136
We loved the park and will go back. Just so much trash everywhere from cigarettes butts and other types of trash. Hope fully that will improve.
@ThomasC6214588 · Camped on Feb 5, 2025 at Campsite #E130
The campsite was clean and mostly level. The grounds were kept nicely and the campground was quiet .

Great place
@hughm67CA96316 · Camped on Dec 30, 2024 at Campsite #E123
Camp sights are cleanBathroom at the end is clean and warm showers
@TravisJA262376 · Camped on Dec 29, 2024 at Campsite #E117
Locals have overrun the park! There was some obvious locals on the FHU sites that were abusing the park. 2 campers on a site, 2 boats on a site, cars everywhere, cargo trailer, A frame tents, just stuff everywhere making it very hard to get through the park. For a Corp park the site are close together which only compounds that problem. No Ranger presence.
@MikeT3189940 · Camped on Dec 29, 2024 at Campsite #E109
nice big campsite, easy access to back camper, great roads for walking, nice view of the lake
@KarenR20722329 · Camped on Dec 11, 2024 at Campsite #E122
Pretty park with lots f room.
@AnnEB6053DCAF5 · Camped on Dec 9, 2024 at Campsite #E133
Nice quiet area, great walking at the tent section (which was empty) including the gravel roads behind it in a lovely forested area. Few campers, shopping not too far and even some TV channels available.There was a very festive Christmas light/decoration contest at another campground on the same lake (COE also)That was very fun and spirited to the holiday!
@TerryC3713393 · Camped on Dec 6, 2024 at Campsite #E134
We always love this campground!!! Its very spacious and always quiet at night
@BillyF7018375 · Camped on Nov 29, 2024 at Campsite #E110
Great accomodations with concrete pads, abput a dozen with sewer. Jefferson City great historical place to go nearby!
@RickeyP3090AB9 · Camped on Nov 27, 2024 at Campsite #E106
Park was in fair condition, could use a little more upkeep, weeds growing up badly in places that used to be kept neatly trimmed, small amounts of trash scattered about the park, fire pits not cleaned.For the most part it was a pleasant stay, but could have been better.
@GwenM621735399 · Camped on Nov 25, 2024 at Campsite #E139
This is a gorgeous lake and a nice small campground. Our spot was perfect and overlooking the lake. Fall colors were all around and the quaint town of Jefferson and a drive through safari gave us plenty to do nearby. Would be 5 stars if full hookups.
@RachelS6363728 · Camped on Nov 21, 2024 at Campsite #E110
Campsite was very nice, Check In was quick and Staff was great. We will definitely be back and will also recommend Buckhorn Creek to friends.
@TimC9142347 · Camped on Nov 17, 2024 at Campsite #E117
Awesome views. Awesome park. Definitely will go back

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
