Buckhorn Campground

The above snow pictures IS NOT BLACK BUTTE/BUCKHORN. There are no rock outcrops this proximal to campgrounds and that is not what the campgrounds look like. There is almost never snow, and once in ten years it snows it does not stick. Black Butte is a oak woodland/grassland area on a man made lake with very manicured and controlled campsites. In the winter, they close down to one little loop and then you are closed in by generators growling all night from RVs. They also do not close the campground gates at night so you are also subject to folks arriving at 2 am in the winter to that one little loop. Rangers like to pick on whom they think is vulnerable. The bigger and more expensive your rig, the less the rangers will bother you no matter.

Open year-round with flush toilets and hot showers. We camped here once in January and were the only ones here! They have a playground for the kids and it is a good place to ride bikes. You can't beat the scenery here or the price.
