    McGee Creek State Park Campground

    Hidden Gem

    McGee creek State Park is a beautiful state Park. It has beautiful campsites nestled along the lake shore. Their campsites can accommodate big RVS. The lake is beautiful. The fishing is great from boat, shore or covered fishing dock. I love swimming and kayaking in the cool water. They also have campgrounds for people with horse. The lake is surrounded by the kiamiche mountains. There is no lights around the lake except at the park. Star gazing is amazing. The lake has 2 dams. The park has beautiful hiking trails going through the Pines. If you like to hike you can choose the type of hiking you want to do from just a few minutes hike or carry gear for camping in the forest. You have to sign in when you go hiking back country. I went hiking in the winter and because I took a trail that was new to me I was 5 minutes late getting back to the Ranger Station and when I came out of the Forrest their was a search team assembling. Very embarrassed but it felt good to know if I had been lost or injured they would have found me. The state Park also have 8 camping huts that are air condition and heated that have a fireplace, screened in porch that you can relax and look out over the lake. They are nestled in the Pines along the shore at Potapo Hill.They are unique. They were built back in the 40s I believe by WPA. The huts have a set of bunk beds, picnic table, heat and air, fireplace, fireplace, barbecue grill. The huts do not have bathrooms in each hut but have shared bathrooms outside that are clean and kept up. The huts are not equipped with refrigerator, cook stove or bed linens. So if I'm going for a few days or longer I take a mini fridge, hot burners for cooking. Basically this is camping with the luxury of having a roof over your head with the comfort of heat and air without bugs bitting. The huts have plenty of room for 2 queen size air up mattresses. They also give good discount for vets, military and disabled.

    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

    McGee Creek State Park Campground

    Private balconies overlooking the lake

    I had never heard of McGee Creek State park but had a blast here last weekend! We stayed right on the water at Potapo Landing. Definitely the nicest campsite I’ve seen. Aside from electricity, water, picnic table, fire pit and grill, each site also had their own deck! We got lucky as our site was not directly next to other campers, however most sites were pretty close together. It seemed like many of the RVs that were parked were there permanently (or at least for a very long time). Every now and then we’d catch a whiff of sewage smell but other than that it was very quiet and peaceful weekend.

    Buckhorn Campground Loop C — Chickasaw National Recreation Area

    One of Our Favorite Places

    This was the first time we camped in Loop C, which is reserve only. It was in January, so the Loop was about 1/3rd full with mostly RVs. Loop D, first come, first serve, had less campers. RV sites have water & electric & tent sites have shared water. The restrooms were very nice, clean and heated. We stayed at site 81C, which was a challenge to back into because of trees that were close to drive. The pad was fairly level & the picnic table/fire pit pad was separated from the RV pad. I could only imagine how secluded this site would feel with vegetation on the trees. This loop also had many tent sites and all the tent & RV sites are well sized & spaced. Some RV sites closer to the water look like they would be a challenge to level, but most sites have fairly level pads & all sites have very level picnic/fire pit pads for an area that has some generally steep slopes. There was only one lake view RV site in Loop C, 56C, that had the hookups on the side that pointed the front door towards the lake, but all had a gorgeous view from the picnic/fire pit pads. Absolutely love the Chickasaw National Recreational Area because of the many activities this park offers & its history.

    Red River Rose RV Resort

    Lovely but noisy

    We stayed for an overnight with our 36’ trailer. It was easy to find and we chose the easiest spot to park. Our spot had a cement pad which was mostly level. The resort is well maintained and clean. Looks like a fun location with kids. Staff was polite and helpful.

    Propane refill available on site (big plus).

    Be ready for highway noise and the occasional train whistle.

    Thousand Trails Lake Texoma

    Not as far if you take picnic trail

    One big issue with this park is the distance to the actual lake itself. You will need a cart or be ready for a hike to the beach area as it is quite a ways from the campground. that is an issue for us as my wife is disabled and needs a walker and we have no cart. But, lucky for us we were in the B section and decided one of the days we were there to attempt the picnic walk. Well worth it, even with a walker we managed to make it down to the waters edge within 15 minutes and its an easy gradual walk. Bring a picnic basket. tables to sit at or on the waters edge.

    As for the rest of the camp, most amenities due to winter months and covid were shut down. Did see people enjoying the hot tub. The roads in many of these TT campground in the loop around Dallas do need attention so take your time going through them. We did need to use the laundry and they had ample enough machines and the basic price which was 1.50 and 1.75. The sites are nice, many shaded but snug not of other campers but trees. Some have fire pits, some do not. As with more and more campgrounds these days many annuals throughout the park.

    Martin's Landing Campground — Lake Murray State Park

    Martins landing Area 1

    We grabbed sites 52 and 53, for two families! Perfect size and perfect spot right on the water- in cove like area of the lake. The sites are spread out a decent amount. There is a fire pit and grill, for charcoal grilling. There is a wooded area next to these two sites where you can go for a nice little walk. There are bathrooms, with a sink and toilets, cleaned daily, as well as showers. Tons of space for grass games and kids to run free.

    Buckhorn Campground Loop C — Chickasaw National Recreation Area

    A cut above for National Park campgrounds

    General: Buckhorn is one of six campgrounds in Chickasaw NRA (Central, Cold Springs, and Rock Creek are located in the Platt historic district closer to the town of Sulphur. These are best for tent camping with no hookups. Guy Sandy, The Point, and Buckhorn are located on or near Lake of the Arbuckles) with a total of over 400 sites. I am not sure why we chose Buckhorn, but it was possibly due to a Dyrt review and we were not disappointed! Some are reservable, some have water and electric, and some are walk-in. If you enter the park via the town of Sulphur, make sure you stop at the visitor center for a map and information. There is no fee to enter the park.

    Site Quality/Facilities: Buckhorn has four loops, two of which were closed when we were there in early May. We reserved site 56 in the C Loop, which had a view of Lake of the Arbuckles. The sites are large, spaced a good distance apart and wooded, providing privacy. Our site (but not all of them) had a large picnic table, water, electric, lantern hook, bbq grill, and fire pit. There is an amphitheater between the C and D Loops, but I am not sure when/if programs will resume.

    Bathhouse: The restrooms were very clean, and the good surprise was showers, a rarity in National Park Service campgrounds. The shower is clean, solar heated and operates on a timer. The water was immediately warm and although I did not time it, I had sufficient time to shower and wash my hair, and not feel rushed. There are plenty of hooks and a bench plus an outlet for a blow dryer. Only one spider made an appearance! Soap dispensers in the bathroom and air dryers (I bring my towel).

    Activities/Amenities: There is a nature center, two springs, some small waterfalls, and a 2.9- mile paved path around Veteran’s Lake (you would need to drive to get to these areas from Buckhorn). There are also multi-use trails closer to Buckhorn which are used for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Fishing appeared to be popular as we saw several boats by some of the sites. Swimming is also allowed but I would imagine this would be in the summer when it is warmer. No to fleeting cell service on Verizon although we did have cell closer to the town of Sulphur in the Platt Historic District.

    It was very quiet and peaceful when we stayed here on a weekday in early May with only about 20% occupancy. For $11($22 for non-seniors), this campground is an excellent value, and I would absolutely return.


Guide to Coleman

McGee Creek State Park campground offers tent sites with varying levels of privacy across multiple camping areas. Tent Hill provides more secluded options with only four sites in this section, while Buster Height campground features multiple sites positioned closer together. The park includes a playground, pavilion, swim beach, fishing docks and climate-controlled lake huts built in the 1940s by the WPA. Lake Texoma's camping areas provide access to multiple recreational activities with several campgrounds located on peninsulas extending into the water.

What to do

Trout fishing in Blue River: Visitors to Blue River Campground need an Oklahoma fishing license even if not planning to fish. "Great place to camp. Stayed during Thanksgiving, after Blue River was stocked with Trout, fishing was awesome. Great family camping and fishing," notes Hope F. This natural aquifer offers clear flowing waters over rock ledges with pools between.

Explore hiking trails: Chickasaw National Recreation Area offers well-maintained trails with varying difficulty levels. "We hiked the Bromide Hill and Bison Overlook trails for some really nice views," shares Jasmine M. The park contains multiple swimming areas, including Little Niagara and Travertine Creek, which get crowded during peak hours.

Equestrian experiences: Platter Flats includes a dedicated equestrian camping area with trails connecting to Lakeside Park. "We ended up about halfway down on campsite 1... There are great hiking trails and beautiful views. We had two kids with us and we loved walking around the campground and seeing all the horses," reports Rachael H. Non-horse owners can also camp in the equestrian area when regular sections fill up.

What campers like

Lake access: McGee Creek State Park campground offers sites with direct lake access. "We met the camp host who assisted us in finding our spot. We had a site far from anyone else and had a lakeside camp spot. This made our site feel huge," says Jo L. Many campers appreciate the sunrises over the lake, often with fog rolling across the water in early morning.

Stargazing opportunities: Several campgrounds in the Coleman area provide excellent night sky viewing due to minimal light pollution. "This place is really dark at night and some campsites are very private. You can see so many stars," writes Paul T. about McGee Creek State Park. The park features gravel campsites, each equipped with a grill and table.

Well-maintained facilities: Lake Texoma State Park provides clean camping areas with amenities. "Great sites with picnic tables and grill/ring. Great fishing-local guides available," notes Keri F. The park offers boat launch facilities, making it convenient for visitors bringing watercraft.

What you should know

License requirements: Blue River Campground requires every visitor to hold an Oklahoma fishing license regardless of planned activities. "Luckily our friends in the area knew about this spot and the restrictions: you need to have an OK fishing license to camp (or visit) here," explains Dan N. The license serves as your entry permit even if you don't plan to fish.

Limited services at some sites: Primitive camping areas have fewer amenities. "There is no electric, water faucets, picnic tables, or grills. The bathrooms are primitive as in no flushing toilets. No showers," mentions Melanie W. about Blue River. Some campgrounds feature pit toilets in certain areas with proper bathrooms requiring a walk or drive.

Seasonal crowds: Swimming areas become extremely busy during summer months. "Nearby swimming areas at Little Niagara and Travertine Creek were very packed during the day, so we only visited during the early morning when the water was very cold," reports Jasmine M. Early morning or off-season visits provide more solitude.

Tips for camping with families

Water safety precautions: Eisenhower State Park Campground features a swimming area accessible via a trail. "The swim area in this park is down a pretty steep gravel trail that I had a hard time navigating," notes Dude R. Parents should supervise children on trails leading to water areas and bring appropriate footwear.

Wildlife awareness: Blue River campers should watch for native wildlife. "Hiking is great but watch out for snakes on the ground along trails. I saw a few. There are many snakes such as rattlesnakes and copperheads," warns Melanie W. Teaching children to stay on established paths and examine surroundings helps ensure safety.

Food storage practices: Wildlife may disturb camp areas if food isn't properly secured. "The raccoons can be aggressive, keep your food put up in your car or a cooler and throw away your trash nightly unless you want to pick it up in pieces the next day. They may rip your tent to get to food," advises Tracy C. about Blue River Campground.

Tips from RVers

Site selection considerations: Choctaw RV Park offers level concrete pads with full hookups. "Very clean KOA right next to Choctaw casino. They have a shuttle that comes right to your spot to take you to the casino. Cable tv and a great pool as well!" shares Chris P. The campground provides amenities for extended stays.

Leveling challenges: Some sites require significant leveling equipment. "Just beware if you are camping in an RV, the site is VERY unlevel! We were in a pop-up camper and had one tire up off the ground at least 6 inches with our Baleveler," warns Gina H. about Buckhorn Campground at Chickasaw National Recreation Area.

Utility access variations: Lake Texoma offers different hookup options based on location. "The RV section has both full hookups and water/electric hookups. The prettiest sites are the ones without sewer, and the next time we go for just a weekend we'll pick one of those," advises Brian B., noting that "most of the RV sites have nice, level concrete pads."
