We arrived here later in the day. We were here and it was chilly in November. Apparently the person working didn't anticipate any body showing up so late in the season. They were surprised and let us in for free. Its a pretty sweet camp right on the lake. 20-30 tent sites. As well as full RV hook ups.
Theres hiking, biking, and fishing in the area. We weren't really sure what to think about camping in Oklahoma and the camp site and people blew our expectations.
Cheers!
ScoutGreat summer time RV and year around tent camping. Several miles of trails for hiking and smooth enough for decent mountain biking. Also a great spot do go down and see waterfalls and throw the kayaks in the water.
RV facilities are clean for black water dump. Also has cabins and small event center, swimming pool, several play grounds. Con- no water in RV spots during winter months and upper tent camping closes during winter.
Traveler
hammock and tent camping. few skeeters and flys and a friendly coon. great weekend.
Guide
Stayed here while barreling across Oklahoma, tent camping. I was able to reserve the last walk in site (Saturday of 4th of July weekend) around 8pm. You can reserve online thru recreation.gov. All sites are for RV or tent, and there was only one other tent camper. There’s not a lot of privacy (which is the only reason I knocked a star) but it’s right on Kaw lake, is clean and all maintained, and even has showers.
Guide
This small campground is perfect if you are tent camping and need a quick place to stop and rest for a day or two. Oologah Lake is beautiful and the hiking trails are beautiful!
TravelerGreat tent campground. Beautiful nature trails for hiking. Fabulous water falls!
ScoutNestled in the beautiful hills of the Osage Hills Nation, located between Bartlesville, Oklahoma and Pawhuska, Oklahoma is Osage Hills State Park. I brought three of my grands who all had a blast! This 1,100 acre park offers swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, & even has a tennis court. The clean restrooms were a plus! Cabins, RV & Tent camping available. There is a small private lake with kayaks (Lookout Lake), many hiking trails, a swimming pool, and playground. We saw white tail deer, armadillo, & wild Turkey. There is a lot to do in the area. Woolaroc, Frank Phillips Mansion, The Pioneer Woman, The Dewey Hotel Museum, Tom Mix Museum, Kiddie Park.
Guide
The title says it all, being right off the lake you get all of your lake benefits.
I went on a very windy day, so tent camping was never going to happen, but getting rocked to sleep in my hammock was nice.
Pros: Electric hookups at all sites No light pollution Good bathrooms and showers
Cons: A Loop, is really the only loop you should tent in Two night minimum The "nature trail" is just a cut from A Loop to the showers
RangerBeautiful old, but refurbished campground in Northeast Oklahoma, built by the CCC! Our last night of a 16-day trip is quietly coming to a close. We made reservations on-line (that's another story!), and when we got there around 8 p.m., the RV campground was about 1/3 full. There are only electric hookups and community water is scattered through the campground. There are tent cabins to rent, and separate tent camping area, also where the overlook is, although it was overgrown and not easy to see the view! There are newish shower and toilet buildings scattered around and my hubs said they were nice and clean... shower water warm only. There is a swimming pool opening early June and nice walking trails. Lots of history if you go that route!

The Rv sites are close together and the tent camping spots have no privacy or shade. Check the event calendar bc it’s fun to stay for one of their events. They do all kinds of stuff! The casino is smaller but a lot of fun with a big dance floor if you like dancing. There’s no places to hike, swim or do any fun family activities unless there’s races or a event going on. You’d literally just be staying to go to the casino unless you were driving thru, it’s a good place to stay but not for a vacation.
RangerWe tent camped here at Tent Hill site C. Had a grassy site which was nice. It was kind of close to D but we had good neighbors. Also, one of the benches at the picnic table was gone. Maybe it was an ADA site. Had a fire ring and lantern pole. Just across the road from the bathroom.
There are some good trails here. But they are in the process of making some changes and the maps are only partially accurate for the time being. We hiked to the old CCC camp and saw some old buildings and stuff.
There is a playground at the bottom of the hill. It’s a bit of a trek back up.
I suggest hiking down to the “waterfalls” on the river and spending some time.
LegendI have been going to Skiatook Lake almost all of my life with friends and family to boat and enjoy the beaches. The campground is rather pleasant, if small and the spots are pretty close to one another. Mostly geared to RV's, tent camping is loud and not the most fun. We wouldn't go here for hiking and only to enjoy the lake. The beach is great for dogs but we got kicked out because we didn't have a spot when literally no one was in the park. That sours my opinion of the campground but overall, if you are a boater and RVer it is one of the best spots in the region.
TravelerOsage Hills State Park is tucked away in the rolling hills and tall grass prairies of NE Oklahoma, and home to over 1100 acres of forest, lakes, creeks, trails, and fun. The park offers 20 fully-outfitted RV campsites, 8 rustic cabins, and over a dozen designated tent-camping sites. Advance reservations are recommended, but not required (if the designated camping areas are not full). The park also has a swimming pool, ball field, tennis courts, and an abundance of heavy concrete picnic tables available.
For the more adventurous, the park has easily-accessible lakes and creeks, hiking trails (easy-to-moderate in difficulty for the average, able adult), mountain biking trails, and scenic overlooks.
Wildlife is abundant throughout the park, but in my many experiences, have never been invasive of the camping areas. Depending on the season, ducks, geese, wild turkey, deer, squirrels, and many other forms of wildlife can be seen in proximity, with relative ease. Fishermen will enjoy the park's waterfronts, at Lookout Lake & Sand Creek, where plentiful bass, perch, crappie, and catfish can be had.
My family and I have made many great memories at Osage Hills over the years, it's a great place to get away for a weekend & enjoy nature. My favorite time of year to go would be early-mid fall, as the foliage can be truly brilliant & breathtaking. Highly recommended!
LegendWhat a neat little park in Northeastern Oklahoma! What I really liked was that most of the park was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) during the Depression and New Deal eras. Many of the buildings were still in use including shelters and cabins. What I didn't like were the terribly short hours of the office- open 8:00-4:30, although no one was around as late as 8:30 in the morning. Back to the positives, the tent sites were separate from the RV sites by a good 1/4 mile so no worries about generators. I camped in site Q which was on the interior of the tent loop, but the prime spots were on the outside of the loop. If you can get site R you will be in heaven!. Each site had a picnic table and fire pit and there were nice level places for tents on all sites. There is a nice overlook in the tent loop to watch the sun rise over the valley. The bathhouse was clean and had electric. There were two shower stalls, but no doors or curtains, so best not be modest. The RV sites seemed well spaced and well maintained. There were several nice trails in the park, with one that left from the tent loop, but they weren't really well marked and it was difficult to find any trail maps. There is a pretty little lake near the entrance that you can rent canoes to take a spin around the lake, but again, it depends on whether someone shows up to man the office. Apparently I wasn't the only one struggling to deal with the office hours as someone just dumped their boat paddles and PDF's in front of the office door since there was no one to turn them in to.
RangerI had a nice, one-night experience at the Caney Bend campground. I did not take advantage of Copan lake, but I noticed there was a boat ramp which would be a great amenity for someone with a boat/kayak/canoe. Saw a great amount of wildlife such as birds, woodland critters and even a lizard. I saw one other camper during my time here. Beautiful, early Summer, Oklahoma weather and gorgeous night sky. I gave this site four stars because even though it was a nice experience it wasn't anything special, in my opinion. However, I would be interested in returning and having a full camping/hiking experience instead of just passing through like last time. Also hopefully my device won't be dead like last time so I can actually take pictures of the area. Give this place a try!
LegendOsage Hills is historic for Oklahoma as it was developed by a CCC camp in the 30's. You have the ability to see the work they did and even hike to the camp itself. The park consists of approximately 5 miles of trails for hiking and a nice smaller lake for fishing. It also has a creek that you can swim in if the water is high enough. The park is on the smaller side and reservations are a must. We usually visit this park when it is cooler and the weather is dicey since it is only an hour from Tulsa. The upper section is for tents only and every time we go it is either not open or has a boy scout troop that takes it over. The bathrooms are a mix of typical Oklahoma State Parks 50's style run downish and one newer facility. I would recommend this park as a great place for family's that are camping with younger children or trying it out for the first time.
LegendThis is a nice, newer feeling recreation area with a large lake for boating, fishing and water sports. The campground is large with several loops and sites on and off the lake. Most of the sites on the lake were taken by RV'ers, with most tent campers choosing sites up the hill away from the lake (and lake noise). I was in site 44 which backs up to the woods (making it easier to gather downed wood for my fire and cooking). I thought I was going to have the back end of the loop all to myself, but lucky me, someone with a camper decided to be my next-door neighbor. Sigh. It was a fairly nice site with a paved parking pad, picnic table, grill, and fire ring, with plenty of level space for my tent and trees for my hammock. The trees provided a nice wind break from the relentless Oklahoma winds. The shower house on my loop (there was one on each loop and it seemed like a few spare mixed in) was clean and maintained daily. The actual shower portion had two stalls, one handicap accessible, and both with a few resident spiders. Speaking of wildlife, there were plenty of deer in the field in the evening and several turtles and snakes hanging out in the late afternoon. All sites had electric and there was a shared water pump for every two sites. The Recreation Area had a manned gate house and the campground host manning it was very nice and helpful. There weren't any hiking trails in the campground, but then again, its main claim to fame is the lake. If you are looking for things to do in the area, Pawhuska is home to Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman from the cooking channel. Her store and restaurant are in Pawhuska and its a pretty good place to get breakfast or lunch.

Surprising find in Oklahoma. Quiet, spacious and cheap. Great campground overlooking Hulah Lake and Dam on the Camry River. I really enjoyed my three night stay here. Decent nearby facilities and water and electric at most sites.
GuideMy husband, 2 dogs, and I stayed here in our tent multiple weekends in a row this past summer. We went jugging in our canoe and caught some really good size blue cats. The camp hosts are the absolute best! And never ending gorgeous evenings spent by the campfire watching the sunset.
GuideNice lakeside campground. Electric at every site and communal water spigots. Flush toilets and showers. Site has a playground, disc golf course, volleyball, basketball hoop. Site is set up for trailers but they accept tent campers.

This campground is so beautiful. I have to be honest, we’re traveling the country and I didn’t have high hopes for liking Oklahoma. This campground has changed my mind. We haven’t even left and I’m already writing it down for us to visit again. It is beautiful here.
+Awesome playground & basketball goal +the VIEWS!
Traveler
Clean campground but it was way too well maintained as far as it being very out in the open, there were no woods around us for our campsite so the wind almost knocked our tent over. But it was a very pleasant one night stay! Loved being so close to a little pond and lake. My toddler loved watching the fish
Legend
This State park has a ton of campsites that are close to Keystone Lake. The sites are spread out but most offer little to no shade in the hot Oklahoma sun. The facility is maintained and has plenty for families to do. The fishing is awesome from the banks and I was surprised but the trail network.
Legend
This is a nice little campground that overlooks Skiatook Lake with many of the campsites right on the lake. If you are lucky you can snag a site that is up on the bluff over the lake, the views are amazing (and it was less windy than the sites down on the lakeshore)! But be careful because if you roll out the wrong side of your tent you could end up with a sharp drop into some cold water. The campground was pretty empty when I was there due to late season and some poor weather expected to roll in. There wasn’t anyone at the gate, but there was an honor system pay tube, and the campground host was really helpful. The vault toilet was really clean which made me not mind as much the lack of showers. There seemed to be more tent campers here which might have had to do with the lack of RV delights like dump station or hookups. The area is run by the US Army Corps of Engineers and does not take reservations. The true draw is the lake, which is beautiful and had a nice boat ramp and dock. Might be a good place to spend a little quiet time.
Scout
I visited this campground in October of 2018. The campground itself is beautiful, but recently part of it had been submerged in water which was problematic for us tent campers. Sunset Point is beautiful, but I'd recommend it only in the summer and on weekends when there is no chance of rain. We were soaked all weekend. I'd definitely return because the park has nice trails, great views, and a serene lake setting, but I'd make sure I'm in a different campground than Sunset Point.
Traveler
Stayed here in mid October-- RV side of campground was full but I was the only person on the tent side. Spot was nice, altho folks before me had left some trash around-- fire pit was still hot so not sure if the park caretakers had gotten a chance to run by before I got there to clean. Bathrooms were well kept and stocked, view of the lake was gorgeous. Will definitely be back! Had good signal with verizon.
