GenieSummary

What others are saying about this campground
Buckhorn Campground is a great spot for car camping, located just 1.5 hours away from Los Angeles. It is nestled up at 6,300 feet and has 38 campsites, with plenty of restrooms, running water, bear-lockers, and maintainable staff on site. There are also hiking trails leading to a couple of seasonal waterfalls and peaks, and a plane wreck (Mount Williamson). Each campsite has a picnic table, firepit, and bear box for food storage, and the campground is set back from the road a little, giving you a quieter experience away from the highway. It can get very hot in the summer with limited shade, and the campground is a little loud during the day time due to the highway. However, it is a great spot for families with young children and those looking for a peaceful getaway. The scenery is beautiful with tall cedar, pine, fir and spruce, and a nice creek in the wet season. There are trails going all over the place, some easy and some steep, and plenty of wildlife to spot. The campground is first come first serve, and it fills up quickly for the weekend, so it is best to plan ahead. It is also important to bring bug spray, as there are lots of flying critters.
