Hutchins Group Campground

Hutchins Group Campground offers three large group sites (accommodating up to 24 people and 8 vehicles each) positioned near Bucks Lake at 5,000 feet elevation in Plumas National Forest, making it ideal for group fishing and boating trips.

The closest boat ramp is at nearby Sandy Point, which provides a dock for launching boats, though note that the campground itself has no potable water on-site (available at Sandy Point Day Use Area or Haskins Campground) and limited shade due to 2021 Dixie Fire damage.

Be prepared for hot days and cool nights, and check road conditions on Highway 162 before visiting, as past closures have occurred.
