About
Buck Creek Campground is a small, primitive camping area nestled in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest along Forest Road 3348. With only 2 campsites, this remote location offers a quiet escape for campers seeking solitude in the forest. The campground is positioned along the Powers to Glendale Bike Route, making it a convenient stop for cyclists traveling through the area. Each campsite includes a picnic table and fire pit, but amenities are minimal. There is no drinking water available, so campers must bring their own supply. A vault toilet is provided, but there is no garbage service, requiring visitors to pack out all trash. The campground's location provides access to the Panther Ridge Trail #1253, approximately 6 miles away, which leads to Hanging Rock and enters the Wild Rogue Wilderness. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations. Campers can stay for a maximum of 14 consecutive days. Quiet hours are enforced between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., dogs must be kept on leash, and OHV/ATV use is prohibited within the campground. Campfires are allowed only in the developed fire pits. The remote location, accessed via approximately 9 miles on Forest Road 3348 from its junction with Forest Road 33, makes this an ideal spot for those seeking a backcountry camping experience.
