Buck Lake Campground

2 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Okanogan National Forest's Buck Lake Campground sits at the end of a steep dirt road, so rigs over 20 feet should plan accordingly. The lake is kayakable and draws anglers, and the open terrain around the water gives the site a spacious feel. Cattle grates keep the surrounding livestock out of the camping area. Mosquito repellent is worth packing, especially in summer. Campers exploring camping spots around Okanogan National Forest will find Flat Campground less than a mile northeast if Buck Lake fills up.
