Awesome location. But weekend was completely ruined by super rude camp hosts. Not family friendly all... definitely never coming back.

Only giving 2 stars because the camp host was very kind when we arrived (if we could give 5 stars…read morejust to the lady we spoke with we would). Unfortunately, during a busy holiday weekend like Father's Day, quiet hours were not enforced at all. There were barking dogs, loud music, yelling, and even gunshots well past midnight. To make matters worse, a nearby RV/trailer ran its generator all night right next to our tent, making it nearly impossible to sleep, and no one stepped in to address any of it. Also want to note that during the busy Saturday morning, all the restroom was completely out of toilet paper. We've always loved Bucks Lake, which is why this experience was so disappointing. The rowdy atmosphere and lack of enforcement left a bad taste in our mouths and made for a frustrating and sleepless camping trip.

This is a well-maintained overnight campground in a beautiful location near the Haskins Bay area of…read moreBucks Lake. From their website: Nestled among scented pine trees in a deep cove at the south end of Bucks Lake, Haskins Valley Campground is a popular vacation spot in California's Plumas County. A portion of the 65 campsites can now be reserved through the handy online system. Haskins Valley Campground has a trailer/camper sanitary station, double vault toilets and a nearby boat ramp. RVs up to 40 feet in length can be accommodated on a few of the no-hookup sites, which feature tables, food lockers, fire rings with grill and piped water. The campground is part of Pacific Gas and Electric Co.'s recreation area which centers around enticing Bucks Lake. The lake is home to five kinds of sport fish, and is a terrific place to swim, boat and water ski. It is remote, but there is a general store just across the street should you need anything. No flushing toilets, but everything seemed clean and orderly. For 4th of July weekend it was still relatively quiet, the weather was fantastic and the swimming really is perfect! I would return.

Very clean, beautiful campground. The hosts were great and the reservoir is within walking…read moredistance. The campground was almost completely empty when we arrived. The host was aware of rain for the evening and offered us a site that was a little more enclosed and protected from the storm. It also happened to be about 3 times larger than our original two sites (which was really nice for us). The water is definitely not great for kayaking but seems to be really nice for boating and such. There is a path that goes around the campground and through the campground next door. You can see views of the reservoir and lots of beautiful pine trees, etc. If you walk far enough you will end up at Maidu Beach which has a boat launch and a nice place to enter the water. Note: Once you book your site there will be instructions on how to get to Red Feather. Print the instructions and follow them. Do Not try to find the campground via your smart phone app, etc. you will get lost! The smart phone will tell you to turn right on Silver Tip Springs Road, INCORRECT. Other people traveling to the campground got lost this way too.

This is a very nice campground. The road into the campground is paved then gravel then back to…read morepaved. There's a few big potholes but overall a good road in and out. Once at the campground loop E sites #23 to #60 the road is a different story. Very narrow and there's 1 pretty hard corner, it's not impossible to make even in our 40 foot motorhome. But it's not for novice driver. We watched many rigs slow to a crawl and inch their way around it. PS - Bears do visit this campground!!!
