Hutchins Campground

Hutchins Group Campground is a reservation-only facility in the Bucks Lake Recreation Area with three large group sites accommodating up to 25 people each, offering direct access to the 1,820-acre Bucks Lake for fishing, boating, and canoeing.

Each site provides picnic tables, campfire rings, and bear boxes for food storage, with the closest boat ramp at Sandy Point.

Note that the campground was severely impacted by the 2021 Dixie Fire and currently has uncertain opening dates; campers should bring shade structures and check availability before planning trips.
