Review:
Located near Parker, Buckskin Mountain State Park stretches along the shoreline of the Colorado River in the shadow of the Buckskin Mountains. This picturesque park is great for a scenic camping, mountain hikes, a desert escape, and exciting water adventure. The park has a good campground, camping with river views, a swimming beach, miles of hiking trails, a boat ramp, a picnic area with tables and benches, volleyball and basketball courts, a restaurant, a playground, a park store and even an arcade.
The River Island, about one mile north, is part of the park and is ideal for tent camping.
In the summer, both Buckskin and River Island are popular destinations for boating, swimming, jet skiing, and camping. In the winter, the mild climate allows visitors to enjoy fishing, camping, and hiking.
