Lovely setting beside upper Buckhorn Lake and good facilities make this a great camping spot. It had vacant sites even late afternoon on a Saturday. Each site has water and electricity as well as a picnic table. Restroom has hot showers. Drive in is 2.6 miles and well signed, but watch for bits of loose gravel. Sites cost $24, half price with federal senior or access card.

My husband and I just spent three days/nights at Trace Branch Campground. We thoroughly enjoyed our tent camping trip.The staff were friendly and helpful. The grounds were well maintained and the bathrooms/showers were clean. The only reason I gave Trace Branch Campground 4 stars instead of 5 stars was because the restroom/showers had 42 steps (round trip) or a very steep road/drive up to it. It seems there should be a winding concrete path to make them more accessible.

The water was pretty dirty. We used the picnic tables and play ground. The kids enjoyed the playground. There were folks camping. It's a good place to take your boat to catch some fish but I'm not so sure about swimming in the nasty water.

Wonderful park and wonderful people. Only thing I could give advice on is to make every turn correctly on the way to the park. If you miss one the alternate routes are horrible and I do mean horrible. As for the park itself it is beautiful. Everything you need to get away from the your world.

Questions & Answers

Is this an extended stay camp ground? I need something for 20 weeks

They are only seasonal with two week limits. But you can't beat it for great hosts and fellow campers, mostly locals. There is a year-round near there. Not as big and pretty but safe and clean.

How far from the campground to hazard hospital ?

I can't tell you the mileage. But it didn't seem to be a long ride, from the back of it, anyway.

I'm having difficulty in convincing my family to come since it's small and secluded. Is it nice there, bath houses and all?

Yes it is. It's very nice. I love it. I grew up just a few miles from there. We still camp there every year.
