tent, RV and group campsites with convenient lake access.
If you are a nature lover, looking for leisure, or just want

Our Sites
Our property offers a one-of-a-kind camp experience with plenty of options to fit your needs. All sites have water hookups (no sewer or electric), and are either waterside or a short walk to the beach.
A quick note on pricing and campsite capacity: we book according to Units. What is a Unit, you ask?
Let's get into the math:
One RV Unit = 1 RV + 1 tent + 1 vehicle + 4 people over the age of 12
One Tent Unit = 2 tents (site size permitting) + 1 vehicle + 4 people over the age of 12
There are opportunities to add "Extras" (additional person, vehicle, pet, etc.) to your reservation at the time of booking but if you are interested in going over a sites guest limit, please contact our Bucks Lake Team at buckslakecamp@gmail.com for approval,
