Buck Creek State Park's modern campground has 113 campsites, 89 of which  have electricity.  Each site has a fire ring and picnic table.  The electric sites have 30 amp service.  There are no water or sewer hook-ups, but a Dump Station and Gazebo where you can fill up water are available.  Amenities in the campground include two shower houses (both heated), flush toilets, coin laundry facilities and a pay phone.  A playground is also centrally located in the campground. Bicycle rentals are available at the camp store. Other sporting equipment may be borrowed from the camp store.  There is also a sand beach designated for campers only.  In the summer months, Buck Creek State Park offers naturalist activities

The Buck Creek Snack Shack is located in the campground near the amphitheater.  Stop in here for convenience items such as firewood, ice, pop, ice cream and candy.

Campers with pets may camp on any site.  There is a limit of 2 pets per site.  All pets must remain on a leash at all times.  The leash may be no more than 6 feet in length.
