What campers like
Riverside views: Riverside RV Park and Campground offers sites along the Caney River. "It sits in a strip of forest along Caney River with a walking/biking trail right adjacent to the park," reports one visitor who appreciated the natural setting despite noting some road noise.
Pet-friendly amenities: Some campgrounds feature dedicated spaces for four-legged travelers. "There's a paved walking trail right next to the campground that is well maintained and leads to the campgrounds dog park. Dog park is clean and spacious," notes a monthly guest at Riverside RV Park.

What you should know
Water quality varies: Some parks have reported water issues. At Buckeye RV Park, one camper noted: "The electricity worked. We had to bail out green water from our water hookup and the drinking water had a green tinge. We couldn't dump because the sewer was full."
Space constraints: Several parks have tight spaces that can challenge larger rigs. "The sites are pretty narrow with some overhanging trees on the corners - we pulled two fifth wheels into two sites and both were within inches of the trees and the edges of each roof while pulling into the sites," reports a visitor to Settle Inn RV Park.
Maintenance considerations: Upkeep varies significantly between parks. "The park does not seem to have regular maintenance; a little sprucing up and regular attention would go a long ways for this area," notes a visitor to Claremore Expo RV Park.
Tips for camping with families
Indoor recreation: When weather doesn't cooperate, look for parks with indoor facilities. "Within walking distance there's the expo center (you can go in and pet horses) and a Rec center with a pool," shares a camper about Claremore Expo RV Park.
Limited kid amenities: Many parks cater primarily to adults and lack dedicated play areas. At Allens Point R.V. Park, a visitor observed: "There appear to be many long term campers here; there are not organized places for children to play. However, there are places that any kid could find to play; this park is mainly structured to attract older campers."
Educational opportunities: The region offers several learning experiences for children. "This is a great location for the RV person who is going fishing or setting out to see sites in the area," notes a visitor to Winganon RV Park, mentioning nearby attractions suitable for families.
Tips from RVers

Surface conditions: Most sites in the area feature gravel pads. "The campground is all rock/dirt so it is very dusty, however the staff do a great job of keeping up with the area and making it a nice place to stay," notes a reviewer at Riverside RV Park.
