Campgrounds around Lake Texoma typically provide basic pet amenities like designated walking areas and waste disposal stations. The park atmosphere stays clean and safe for animals, with sites generally spaced to provide adequate room between neighbors.

Both primitive and developed camping areas accommodate pets throughout the region, with equestrian camping at Platter Flats providing additional space and newly renovated bathroom facilities. Burns Run East and West campgrounds maintain pet-friendly policies with access to water for swimming dogs. Weather considerations include hot summers and occasional flooding that has affected campgrounds like Lakeside. Most campgrounds enforce standard leash requirements, with quiet hours that help maintain a peaceful environment for all campers. Primitive camping areas often provide more privacy and space for active pets compared to the more developed sections where sites can be closer together.

      Sugar Hill RV Resort

      Great North Texas Spot to Explore

      About 45minutes north of Dallas which makes easy entry and exit. Very clean amenities, spacious sites, better than average dog park, good amount of grass and walking trails around. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Even had a small fitness room that will work in a pinch.

      I great place to stop for the night!

      Sites are concrete and level. Bathrooms and showers were big and clean. Nice big dog park. The pool did not look to be very clean and the out door showers by the pool were not working. Wish we could have seen the game room, but they lock it up after they close.

      Waggin Tail Ranch RV Park

      Nice big fenced RV spots

      We stayed here 5 months on a work trip. Nice sites most are fenced in with big yards. A few pull thru sites unfenced. The long term sites are well maintained, the staff do a great job of keeping the place nice. Nice big dog park with a pond, also a grooming and dog wash area. Has a pool with hot tub, and a small playground for the kids. We enjoyed our time here, so unique to have a fenced yard. Only down side is the Texas heat and none of the sites have any shade trees.

      Lake Point RV Resort

      Great RV Site

      We arrived late but were met by the owners with smiles on their faces. They were very helpful and got us checked in quickly. The roads are wide (gravel) and plenty of space between sites. Ours was pull through. The community center is cute! The bathrooms/showers are very clean. The dog park was perfect for my dog on a hot day! I wish there were more mature trees for shade but that’s the only thing I can think of that I would change! Also note there is no wifi in RV area. You have to go to the community center to use it. There is cable internet hookups but you have to have a router.

      Amazing amenities minutes from the lake

      This RV park is one of our favorites. The amenities are amazing, concrete pads, full hook ups, a fishing pond, great pool, volleyball, basketball, and dog park made our 10 day stay incredible. I didn’t use them, but my husband said the bathrooms/showers were the cleanest he’s ever seen. Aside from how great the actual park is, the staff is amazing, best customer service ever and they do all they can to make you feel welcome. 

      The park is minutes from the marina, a fishing pier, and great hiking. We just left and are already booking another trip this summer.

      Shangri-La RV Resort

      Peaceful and quiet!

      We stayed here for 2 weeks over Labor Day 2020. It is a secluded, large property far away from any road noise so it is very quiet. All sites have FHU 30/50 amp. Sites are either grass or some gravel. Our site, 25, was shady, grassy and level with room for us to park our car next to our MH. The owners are pleasant and helpful. When we arrived they were on vacation but they had a woman watching the park. She told us to pick any site. Our Verizon was 2 bars of 4G and I was told that AT&T is sketchy here. There is plenty of shopping in nearby Ardmore. There is 1 set of showers, a laundry room and 3 community fire pits. There are no dog runs but it seems nobody pays attention to the“Pets must be leashed and under control” rule. In my opinion this is one of those places where“Resort” is a misnomer. No picnic tables, cable, WiFi. Pool or other amenities associated with other RV Resorts. If you are in the area, especially for Lake Murray, you don’t need those other conveniences and enjoy peace and quiet this is a good place for you. Website is www.shangri-larvresort.com


    Guide to Calera

    Lake Texoma, situated on the Red River between Oklahoma and Texas, spans over 89,000 acres with 580 miles of shoreline. Calera sits near the Oklahoma side where summer temperatures often reach 90-100°F from June through August. Winter camping offers milder conditions with average temperatures in the 40-60°F range during daytime hours.

    What to do

    Swimming beaches and water access: Burns Run West has a sandy beach area ideal for dogs and families. "The beach is all along the shore. Really nice sand for running around barefoot and you can wade out a long ways. The bottom is all sand no rocks to step on," notes Melanie W. from COE Lake Texoma Burns Run West.

    Fishing opportunities: The lake offers excellent fishing year-round, especially for striper. "We caught nice catfish off the big rocks. The sunsets and stars are beautiful," shares a visitor at Burns Run West. Lake Texoma RV Resort offers "great fishing! Some of the best hybrid Striper in the country," according to Kelly B.

    Hiking options: The area features several marked trails connecting campgrounds. "There is a long equestrian trail that goes over to Lakeside Park across the lake that can also be hiked pretty easily that has a couple secluded spots to swim along the way. The trail is well marked and easy to follow," notes a camper from Platter Flats.

    What campers like

    Well-maintained facilities: Eisenhower State Park receives praise for its upkeep. "Bathrooms are always clean. Fellow campers are very friendly," says Susan F. from Eisenhower State Park Campground. Another camper mentions that "Most camp sites are shaded with pull through sites full hook ups, well maintained and quiet."

    Spacious campsites: Many campgrounds offer good site spacing. "The sites were a good size and had lots of shade. We had an amazing view of the lake!" writes Christina H. at Burns Run West. Another review states that "Whoever designed this campground did a great job."

    Pet-friendly atmosphere: Dog friendly campgrounds near Calera offer accommodations for four-legged companions. At Choctaw RV Park, "There's a small pond that had Canadian geese swimming in it... There's a kids playground, nice pool, and dog play area," according to Stephen K.

    What you should know

    Seasonal considerations: Summer heat can be intense. "In the summer it gets very hot, nice hiking," notes Alice R. at Eisenhower State Park. Lakeside Campground has experienced flooding issues. "It has flooded twice that I know of that caused the entire camp ground to be under water and closed for a lengthy time," reports Lee L. at Lakeside (OK).

    Reservation requirements: Most campgrounds require advance booking through Recreation.gov or campground websites. "Make sure to reserve your spot online if it is near a holiday," advises a Lake Texoma RV Resort visitor. Holiday weekends fill quickly, especially May through September.

    Varied camping options: Sites range from primitive to full-hookup. "Most rv sites are 30 amp. Section B is 50 amp. Sites are water and electric, no sewer sites. There are 2 dump sites on the way out," notes Rick V. about Lakeside Campground.

    Tips for camping with families

    Beach access considerations: Check water levels before planning beach activities. "The swim area in this park is down a pretty steep gravel trail that I had a hard time navigating. There is very limited bank access since the park sits about 50 feet up from the water line," cautions a visitor at Eisenhower State Park.

    Equestrian camping: Families interested in horse-related activities have specific options. "Half of the campground is an equestrian camp. There are great hiking trails and beautiful views. Good shady spots. We had two kids with us and we loved walking around the campground and seeing all the horses!" shares Rachael H. from Platter Flats.

    Playground and recreation areas: Some campgrounds offer dedicated children's facilities. At Riverview RV and Recreational Park, "They have a playground and dog area" according to Ryan H. Burns Run West offers "Lots of shade trees" which provides relief during hot summer days.

    Tips from RVers

Safe atmosphere with gated access," notes Nick & Allyssa S. at Riverview RV Park. Another camper reports "Nice level pads, full hookups and a view of the river."

    Campground security: Several RV parks offer enhanced security features. "Gated security, general store, propane and shower houses. Lots of golf carts and full timers," mentions Ryan H. about Riverview RV Park.

    Convenience amenities: Casino-adjacent campgrounds offer unique features. At Choctaw RV Park, "They have a shuttle that comes right to your spot to take you to the casino. Cable tv and a great pool as well!" explains Chris P. The park is described as "Beautiful clean park with great facilities and amenities. Large concrete pads and shuttle to the casino."
