Weve stayed at this campground before and enjoyed our stay. However, it has been neglected this year. It had been mowed prior to our arrival, but no one has used a weedeater on this property in quite some time.

Had a great time

Mowing in this park was terrible. Although the Park Rangers came the second day and started mowing, Stacy was great and mow were we had a large coming in which help a lot. She did a great job.Thanks so Much

If you plan on visiting, bring your weed-eater and lawn mower. The grass was high and unkept.
@DuncanC3037917 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #E117
great, quiet campground.
@toml3206649 · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #E126
Grass was not cut very high
@AndreT8856D556 · Camped on Jun 10, 2025 at Campsite #E214
We went early June. The park is beautiful, the park is well maintained (except for the restrooms, could us a little maintenance, but was clean) No trails but plenty of streets to walk.
@CarolynWF74EA4 · Camped on Jun 9, 2025 at Campsite #E107
The park is not well maintained, the grass and weeds are high. Ive seen someone mowing one time in the four times weve camped there. (Mar, Apr, May, and June)
@CharlynnFB3E93 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #E134
Spacious sites, some shade, quiet, peaceful, clean. All sites needed mowed due to tall bahia grass (we were there 5 nights in June).
@SaraFB7FAA4B8D · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #E137
The restrooms near our campsite were closed down all weekend, so we had to drive down to other end to be able to shower or use restroom. Besides that it was an ok stay and fish were biting.
@BradleyH440951 · Camped on May 25, 2025 at Campsite #E107
Everything went as planed. The Park was clean; we had not problems. Will visit again.
@jeffk5543088 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #E139
The nearest bathrooms were out of order and the grass around the site looked like hasnt been mowed in weeks. Holiday weekend especially everything should be in tip top shape.
@genet2C4DDC51F · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #E123
Park was in good shape from clean to grass cut! great water pressure and level pad!
@KimberlyH57940 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #E121
We love camping at Buch Horn Creek. It's peaceful and pet friendly. We have never had a bad time.
@KelliH0495EBD4 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #E130
WE HAD A GREAT WEEKEND. WAS SO GLAD THE AREA HAD BEEN SEMI-MOWED. HOWEVER, THE FIREPIT WAS FULL OF PARTIALLY BURNED CANS, WOOD AND PAPER. WE'VE CAMPED AT BUCKHORN FOR 30+ YEARS AND WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK. HOW A BOUT A 2ND DUMP STATION! LOL
@NellJ493E9F2F1 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #E133
The park location was good. Had a good view of the Lake and access to it from our site. But I had to weedeat around the water hookup and a walk way for the kids to walk to our/their friends sites. Also only one bathroom station worked with was quit a ways away from our site, and this was Memorial weekend. Also the kids playground had a slide and swingthats it. All in all a good time there with friends.
@LindaS8448936 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #E203
It was ok, but the bathrooms air conditioning NEEDS to be fixed. Can't take a shower and sweat soooo fast because it is so hot in there. Also, just to use the bathroom toilet, it is too hot. All that heat makes it smell BAD.
@GeorgeS7112210 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #E136
The least maintained USACE campground I've camped. Sites overgrow with grass and weeds. Ant hills EVERYWHERE. Bathrooms could use a cleaning as well. I doubt I'll be back as there are better maintained places on Lake O the Pines.
@KristiH6116534 · Camped on May 8, 2025 at Campsite #E119
Beautiful lake views! Some spots are a little tricky to get into, but we make it work.
@JoyceOli9F0BFB · Camped on May 1, 2025 at Campsite #E129
Grass was tall and not mowed in quite a while. The boat dock was moved off the landing. This was very unsafe. There are no lines for boat trailer parking. People park all different directions.
@GaryB5198117 · Camped on May 1, 2025 at Campsite #E133
Buckhorn use to be a beautiful park! Now its not! Grass is not mowed and the weeds/grass was horrible!! The site was not clean and the fire pit was filled with cigarette butts! Whats happened?? We have stayed there several times, but if not cleaned up we will go elsewhere!
@DeannaD6937901 · Camped on Apr 30, 2025 at Campsite #E126
The campsite was great except the grass was very very tall.
@KathyM4352816 · Camped on Apr 25, 2025 at Campsite #T207
Obviously they don't want tent campers in this park. Substandard maintenance for tent campers.
@JamesK1667053 · Camped on Apr 22, 2025 at Campsite #E137
Grounds were in bad shape. Grass was ankle to knee high. Grounds were not well kept. No range enforcement of rules and regulations. More than two vehicles in a campground cars parked on grass boats on grass trailers on grass, etc. very pathetic enforcement of the core of engineers, rules and laws.
@JohnR2194126 · Camped on Apr 17, 2025 at Campsite #E203
Quiet, easy access, well laid out, lots of room. Very helpful Ranger, lots of water access, overall very satisfied with stay!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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!!!
