From their website: Nestled among scented pine trees in a deep cove at the south end of Bucks Lake, Haskins Valley Campground is a popular vacation spot in California's Plumas County. A portion of the 65 campsites can now be reserved through the handy online system. Haskins Valley Campground has a trailer/camper sanitary station, double vault toilets and a nearby boat ramp. RVs up to 40 feet in length can be accommodated on a few of the no-hookup sites, which feature tables, food lockers, fire rings with grill and piped water. The campground is part of Pacific Gas and Electric Co.'s recreation area which centers around enticing Bucks Lake. The lake is home to five kinds of sport fish, and is a terrific place to swim, boat and water ski. It is remote, but there is a general store just across the street should you need anything. No flushing toilets, but everything seemed clean and orderly. For 4th of July weekend it was still relatively quiet, the weather was fantastic and the swimming really is perfect! I would return.

Unfortunately, during a busy holiday weekend like Father's Day, quiet hours were not enforced at all. There were barking dogs, loud music, yelling, and even gunshots well past midnight. To make matters worse, a nearby RV/trailer ran its generator all night right next to our tent, making it nearly impossible to sleep, and no one stepped in to address any of it. Also want to note that during the busy Saturday morning, all the restroom was completely out of toilet paper. We've always loved Bucks Lake, which is why this experience was so disappointing. The rowdy atmosphere and lack of enforcement left a bad taste in our mouths and made for a frustrating and sleepless camping trip.

He cares for the campers to have a fun and safe time. Each site is beautiful in its own way. All the waterfront sites are gorgeous. Love this place!!

It's an amazing, natural and private environment. The short walk from the campground is beautiful well-kept and well-lit with small lights in the bushes next to the trail. The Hot Springs are clean, beautiful and relaxing. I love the location right on the river as we spent one afternoon soaking in the hot interspersed with cold dips in the river. The kids loved floating down the river through the small Rapids and getting out at the Hot Springs where they could warm up for a couple minutes before repeating the process! Be sure to make reservations ahead of time. The proprietor is very responsive via text.

But it's not for novice driver. We watched many rigs slow to a crawl and inch their way around it. PS - Bears do visit this campground!!!

The host was aware of rain for the evening and offered us a site that was a little more enclosed and protected from the storm. It also happened to be about 3 times larger than our original two sites (which was really nice for us). The water is definitely not great for kayaking but seems to be really nice for boating and such. There is a path that goes around the campground and through the campground next door. You can see views of the reservoir and lots of beautiful pine trees, etc. If you walk far enough you will end up at Maidu Beach which has a boat launch and a nice place to enter the water. Note: Once you book your site there will be instructions on how to get to Red Feather. Print the instructions and follow them. Do Not try to find the campground via your smart phone app, etc. you will get lost! The smart phone will tell you to turn right on Silver Tip Springs Road, INCORRECT. Other people traveling to the campground got lost this way too.

I can tell you that my experience there as a camp aid back in 1986 was amazing and unforgettable. It is an international camp. So I got to meet and work with many campers from all over the world. I did things that I never thought I'd ever get to do, waterskiing for one. I learned to ride a horsey and camp out at some amazing locations with scenery that would reset your soul for enlightenment.

After staying here for a week I figured I should write a review for this place. Overall it was a…read morevery good stay. The campground is about 3 miles off of Prattville Butt Reservoir Road. It's a narrow and winding road with steep grades so be cautious. Once inside the campground you will find signs clearly marking the sites so finding where you need to be shouldn't be an issue. The sites are spaced far enough apart and are decent size as to not be a problem with your neighbors. Parking spots are also fairly large. We easily parked two vehicles in one spot. There was a faucet fairly close to our site, but they ask that you do not wash at it. We took paper plates with us, so that wasn't a big deal. Trash bins are few and far. I only saw two dumpsters (there might be more, not sure) and for us they were a bit of a walk. No big deal, though. We just saved our trash in a bag and hiked it over at the end of the day. The camp hosts seemed friendly. No problems with them to report. They were always buzzing around in their golf carts checking on things and cleaning up after slobs. Cell service is obtainable. I use Verizon and had to drive back out towards Prattville Butt Reservoir Road about 1.5 miles to get a signal, but I did get connected. During our stay the campground literally went silent at 9:00pm. Not sure why, but it seemed the entire population all went to sleep at the same time. The town of Chester is only about a 12 mile drive from the campground, so if you forgot something you might be able to just drive into town and get it. The wildlife was our only worry. During our stay there was a report of a bear wondering around. We never saw it, though. There are food lockers, but most are made of old plywood. I can't see those being much use against a bear. We just put all our food in the car at the end of the day. Bear spray is something you might consider as a "just in case" item. Hornets and flies were another issue, but when you are out in nature like that what can one expect? Chipmunks were running all over the place and were very entertaining to watch. They didn't cause any problems, and didn't try to steal anything. In conclusion I would rate this campground 5 stars. We had a great time just relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. I was able to fly a small drone (DJI Mini 2) around and snap a bunch of photos. I posted some here. Just a side note: The Dixi Fire burned right to the edge of the campground, so that much was saved and is still worth a visit. The grounds were not effected by the fire.
