Don't you try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a good time here at Lake Buckhorn. If you came for an overnight stay Lake In The Forest is a good spot to camp, and Moss Bluff Lock and Dam is lovely. Go for a hike on the Baptist Lake Trasil, and Lake Bessiola is a good lake nearby. This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike on the Prairie Trail is always a fine adventure.
