I love Buck Creek State Park! I enjoy the life of nature out there. I play basketball at the hoops because it is in the middle of no where and peaceful. I just shoot by myself. The one thing I don't like is groups of kids and young adults come out to the basketball court and throw trash everywhere. So the state park officials are constantly stopping and looking at me out there by myself. That is fine but the groups of people coming out need to be warned and held accountable for their behaviour of talk, action, and despicable littering! Why monitor a situation if nothing is going to be done. I feel so ashamed to be fellow humans when I step into nature on that court and see all of the garbage those souls leave behind. I alone am almost ready to take action.
An experience contrary to negatives reviews I read online. I camped there for several days. The campground was well maintained, and the shower house was as spotless as is realistic to expect. The staff stopped in at least twice a day to keep it that way. The biggest surprise was no mosquitoes! The only bite I received my entire stay was from a fly. They must fog regularly. Lots of level sites, (except 91 and 92). I will be coming back.
Beautiful site on a man made lake. The campgrounds are well maintained and what staff we did see were knowledgeable and friendly. Our camp site was very nice as well as our neighbors next to us. Only, bad thing to say about it is the unfortunate troubles the lake has with the blue green algae. Great trail, beautiful lake with many hidden private outlooks. Highly recommend a trip.
We love this state park. Sometimes we stay in the older "standard" cottages and sometimes we stay in the "remodeled" preferred cottages. If you can afford it it's worth the upgrade. If not you'll still have a great time. There is a lot of easy walking and trails. This is an excellent place to ride a bicycle. The lake is warm and beautiful but in most cases the beach is covered with geese droppings. Everything you could need is a short drive away. If you need a restaurant or grocery store it's only five to fifteen minutes away.
This place is so huge. Went to watch my daughter's cross country race. This time I was able to park within a mile of the finish line but last time it took me 45 minutes to walk to the starting line. They definitely need more parking if they are going to hold huge high school events like this every year
