Three Ponds Community offers A-frame structures in a more secluded setting, while Lake Carl Blackwell provides cabins near the water with easy lake access. Most cabins require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited.

A review noted that "what a neat little park in Northeastern Oklahoma! What I really liked was that most of the park was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Depression and New Deal eras. Many of the buildings were still in use including shelters and cabins."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries unless specifically stated otherwise. Kitchen facilities vary widely between locations—some offer only outdoor fire rings for cooking, while others provide indoor kitchenettes with basic appliances.
