Several RV parks surround Grand Lake near Afton, Oklahoma, providing full-service options for motorhome travelers. Monkey Island RV Resort offers spacious gravel sites with 50-amp electric hookups, water connections, and sewer service. Grand Lake O' the Cherokees RV Resort by Rjourney features both pull-through and back-in rv sites, accommodating larger motorhomes with 30/50-amp service. Zen Monkey RV Retreat maintains 18 sites with full hookups including water, electric, and sewer connections. Waters Edge RV & Cabin Resort provides big-rig friendly sites with lake access points for those traveling with boats. "Cedar Oaks is a very easy campground to find and get into. We got our first choice and after an easy check-in we were escorted to site 90 and were assisted backing in."
Concrete pads are available at some Grand Lake State Park campgrounds, while private RV parks typically feature gravel pull-through sites. Most parks remain open year-round, though seasonal variations in occupancy exist, with summer months seeing the highest demand. According to one visitor, "Sites are very level with crushed stone pads. Good water pressure. Lots of grass. Patio sites are available." Dump stations are present at most parks, though not all sites include sewer hookups - Waters Edge lacks a sanitary dump. Cell reception varies by location, with Verizon service reported as strong at Bernice Area campground. Pet policies generally allow dogs throughout the region, though specific restrictions may apply in certain areas. Reservations are required at many locations, particularly during peak fishing and boating seasons from late spring through early fall.

Lookout Tower Road
Great nook
Great road and nice secluded place. Not very level and acorns attacked us because of a storm but…
Starlink precluded by trees.
Nice place though for our journey!

Cabin Diesel Service & RV Park
Wide open
It is in a big open area behind repair business. You can see highway traffic but it’s not loud. Enjoyed sitting outside after a long day of traveling and enjoying the grass fields around us. Full hookups - no bathhouse and inexpensive. There’s also a train that’s interment but didn’t bother me. Would come back again if passing thru the area

GuideChrist Outpost RV Park
Old campground being renovated by new owners
Hubby had some work to do in Talala, so we stayed here to split the difference between job site and parts stores(O'Reillys, ACE, Tractor Supply, etc.) plus there was 50 amp& full hook ups vs. The local campgrounds that had only 30 amp with water. Cash or Check only! I paid$200 5 days/ Monday-Friday($40/night FHU) Under new management(Todd& Sam) and construction around park, main office/store/laundry and start of concrete pads on some of the sites and water line construction. Campground was Christ's Outpost, which some of the old signage is still up, but is now just The Outpost RV Park. Old office had been torn down and a new building that will house the amenities had just been constructed when we stayed here(Sam was working on her laptop on a folding chair& table). Still a work in progress with plumbing, ac units, washers& dryers being delivered/installed. Did not get any pictures of site or park. Sam was very nice and she was easy to work with, but she is busy! Mixture of long term, residential, work camp, and travelers. Everyone I encountered was very friendly and neighborly!#40 Pull through. South side of park, just beside the new office building. Level packed gravel site, no blocks needed. Full hook-ups with no issues. Some sites had utility peds at the very back of the site, some had traditional utility peds at the middle of the site. 2 dumpsters located on the north side of the park. Very quiet during the day and at night. We had no issues with noise or lights/flood lights. We would stay here again. We camped at The Outpost RV Park in a Travel Trailer.
john S.ScoutCamp Mi Casa on the Route RV Park
Bait & Switch
I would not recommend Camp Mi Casa based on my experience. When I originally chose this park, the website clearly advertised the monthly rate as $500 plus electric. After I arrived, however, I was told the price was $700 per month. There was no written lease or rental agreement explaining the difference. I paid the $700 for the first month. The following month I was charged another $700. Then I received a bill for $738 with no itemization explaining the additional $38. When I questioned the difference between the advertised $500 rate and the $700 I was being charged, management refused to correct the website price. I was also told that what I was paying was a “subscription” rather than rent, which I found very strange. For comparison, I eventually moved to another RV park. They charge $450 per month plus electric, exactly as advertised, and I received a clear receipt showing what I paid and what the deposit was for. My issue isn't simply that Camp Mi Casa charges $700. A business can charge whatever it wants. My problem is advertising one price and then charging a different price after the customer arrives, without a written agreement or clear itemized billing. I would strongly recommend getting the exact monthly price, all fees, and the terms in writing before committing to a stay at Camp Mi Casa. My experience was enough that I chose to take my business elsewhere.

Registration is totally online- you register, pay, and check in online. You will receive a text message the morning of your arrival day asking you to provide an ETA. You will be assigned a concierge who will meet you when you arrive and escort you to your site.
All the park and on-site restaurant staff we dealt with were very friendly and helpful. The entrance to the resort is directly off the main road and is easy to navigate for any size rig. The same inside the park; it's well-marked and easy to navigate.
We were assigned to pull-thru site number S-6. All sites had concrete pads, and they all appear to be fairly level. Power, Water, and Sewer were all conveniently located, and the power supply had no issues at all. We use a power management system, and all electrical parameters were spot on during our stay. Water pressure was very good, and the in-ground sewer connection was conveniently located. Bathrooms, showers, and a laundry area aren't available, although both restaurants on the property do have bathrooms for their customers.
Wi-Fi, Satellite, Cable, and OTA: there is no Wi-Fi in the park. We were able to get AT&T 5G with 4 bars. AT&T achieved 399 Mbps down and 10.6 Mbps up. Satellite reception should not be an issue at most sites, as you can move your dish around to an open area on your site. There are plenty of OTA stations available, and they all had great reception with clear HD pictures. Cable was not available.
Dog Park: They have a nice fenced-in park that is in great condition. The park has a covered bench, and they also provide doggie bags and a trash can.
Amenities: Lots of items are listed on their website, and you are only a few miles from area stores and restaurants. Summary: A great place for an overnight or an extended stay, even if they don't have the normal RV park amenities like showers, bathrooms, or a laundry area

Guide to Afton
Grand Lake is the largest of Oklahoma's reservoirs by volume, covering 46,500 acres with 1,300 miles of shoreline in northeast Oklahoma. RV parks near Afton, Oklahoma typically remain open year-round but experience highest occupancy from May through September when water temperatures reach the mid-80s. Most camping facilities in the area are situated within a 20-minute drive of Grand Lake O' the Cherokees.
What to do
Hiking opportunities: Visitors staying at Blowing Springs RV Park & Campsites can access nearby trail systems. "There are great hiking trails in wooded hills on either side of the campground. The hiking trails up top are really pretty and surprising. I came across a cemetery up on a bluff, and found another small spring," notes Annie C.
Mountain biking: The Bella Vista area offers excellent biking trails. "This camp ground is close to a mecca of both biking and mountain biking trails," says Mike B. who stayed at Blowing Springs. The location provides "incredible instant access to the trailhead of many singletrack bike and hiking trails."
Fishing access: Pine Island RV Resort offers water access with boat-in camping options. One camper mentions, "We come here and stay every summer! The remote location is great when you want to get away and feel like you are actually camping."
What campers like
Lakefront sites: Many campers appreciate the water views at Waters Edge RV & Cabin Resort. "We stayed at one of the Premium Waterfront sites in early April and absolutely loved it! Having a picnic and campfire area right next to the water was a unique experience for a campground," writes Jenifer L.
Clean facilities: Campers regularly mention well-maintained amenities at RV parks near Afton. "The bathroom & shower facilities are always clean, with excellent water pressure, and hot water," notes Brittany G. about Pine Island RV Resort.
Convenient locations: Whispering Woods RV Park gets positive reviews for its accessibility. "Easy to get in and out. Free shuttle to the casino if desired. Nice bathhouse and showers. Beautiful view," states Carrie.
What you should know
Reservation timing: Many campsites at Grand Lake fill quickly during summer. "It looks like many of the people here have year-around rentals so I would imagine if you are booking throughout the summer, you'll want to get your reservation in as early as possible," advises a Waters Edge visitor.
Electrical setup: Some campgrounds have unusual utility layouts. "One thing you will want to note is that you may need an electrical extension if you're bringing a towable as the electric is on the opposite side from the sewer and water," reports a camper at Waters Edge.
Limited dump stations: Not all campgrounds offer sanitary dumps. "The campground does have a supply of these, if needed. Oh, and the wireless can be spotty depending on your site location in the park," notes Jenifer L.
Varied terrain: Grand Lake O' the Cherokees RV Resort by Rjourney offers diverse site options. "Sites are good size and can accommodate large rigs. Full hookups, nice common area... easy access to launch ramps," reports John F.
Tips for camping with families
Lakefront safety: Some lakefront camping areas have steep dropoffs. "The drop off from the camp sites to the lake was so steep that we had to constantly remind our children to stay back from the edge. Luckily, there were no mishaps," cautions Kevin H. about Waters Edge.
Recreation options: Families appreciate having activities beyond water sports. "We absolutely love the mini golf course and game facility, as well as the Eagles Nest! There's nothing better than sitting out on the deck watching the sun set after a long day on the lake," says Brittany G. about Pine Island.
Shaded sites: Downstream RV Park provides concrete pads with some grassy areas. "Clean. Safe. Great for an overnight on our way from Joplin to OK City. $30 for electricity and water. Easy check in and plenty of spots," notes Jennifer M.
Tips from RVers
Site spacing: RV campsites vary in proximity at different Grand Lake campgrounds. "Most, if not all, spots have decks overlooking the water. Also, the spots had full hookups!" shares Brandy C. about Waters Edge.
Cell reception: Connectivity can vary by location. "We got 3 bars on Verizon and the park WiFi was average for a park this size," notes a visitor to Grand Lake O' the Cherokees RV Resort.
Level pads: Most RV parks in the Afton area feature gravel or concrete pads. "It is a parking lot behind a casino but backs up to a beautiful pasture with pond. Site had electric and water. Community sewer drop with washout. No wifi but cellular was good," explains Sommer J.
