Directions From Hwy. 70/89 Quincy turn on the Bucks Lake Rd. (county Rd. 411) Continue on up to Bucks Lake, approx. 18 mi. Turn Right (you will see a Firehouse)on County Rd. 414 this will take you through the resort area, soon after leaving the resort area you will see White Horse Camp Site on your right. NOTE: As you travel up to Bucks Lake, you will drive through the community of Meadow Valley, soon after that the road splits, either direction will take you up to the White Horse Camp BUT if you go right the road is very windy and steep at times. It is recommended that you stay to your left on County Rd. 411. It's a few miles longer to your destination, but easier travel with your trailer.
