Buck Creek State Park

Buck Creek State Park is an Ohio state park. ReserveOhio lists 107 campsites there: 41 with water, electric and sewer, 45 with electric, 21 without electric. It also lists 23 cabins and 1 group camp. The 1,896-acre park is centered on a 2,120-acre lake and has wetlands and meadows.

Cabins at Buck Creek State Park are frequently described as clean, private and well-equipped (screened porches, working heat/AC), and staff receive positive notes for prompt maintenance. The lake, marina, beach and trails are the main draws for boating, fishing and walking. Campsites are generally level and roomy, though some sites sit fairly close together; group areas have basic restrooms but no showers. Expect a few tradeoffs: sections of trail have closures or uneven maintenance, shoreline can be rocky, and camp-store firewood quality is inconsistent. Overall it’s a peaceful, well-located park with good recreational options.
