Bucks Lake is located on Oroville-Bucks Lake Road, 17 miles southwest of Quincy or 32 miles northeast of Oroville. Bucks Lake is a high mountain lake surrounded by the Bucks Lake Wilderness on one side and recreation residences/resorts on the other side. The area offers year-round recreation opportunities, making it a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Showers are available nearby at Sandy Point Day Use / Boat Launch.
Getting there From downtown Quincy, take the Bucks Lake Rd. for 17 miles. From Oroville, you have the choice of two alternate routes. You can either take Hwy 70 east through the Feather River Canyon to Quincy and then follow the Bucks Lake Rd. to the lake. Or, from Oroville, take Oroville Dam Blvd., turn right on Olive/ Hwy 162 and follow it to the lake. This route is only open during the summer months after the road is plowed. Call ahead for road status.
We had a great time at Bucks Lake Camp. The hosts were so kind and so helpful. We loved our site it was perfect for our large group. Right on the lake!
Beautiful resort. The staff was wonderful, friendly and accommodating. Can’t wait to go back…
I took my 4 girls to camp here and we have such good time. The bathrooms and campsites were very comfortable and clean. We will definitely be coming back here for another visit.
This is one of our favorite places to go camping on Bucks lake, always a great time. Beautiful campground. Hosts are awesome and helpful. We usually come up twice a year.
Awesome campground! I've been here several times now with my family and I would definitely recommend it to others. It's located at the best spot on the lake for swimming, kayaking, fishing and hiking. They even have several paddle boats and canoes that are free to use while staying there. The grounds are kept extremely clean and the staff is very friendly. They keep it quite later in the evenings as well so you'll get great sleep.
