Needs a little work
We ended up there a day after some good rain so the site was a little washed out, but that's nature. #19 is a pretty big spot on the lake. Bring a water hose extension for the hose bib. I caught one tiny fish but look forward to better luck during Labor day.

Great Central Location
Stayed here for a couple days in late April. Reserve in advance if possible. We chose a spot near the lake and were able to fish and canoe right from our campground. Plentiful shade and good amenities including showers, concrete picnic tables, fire rings, and firewood for sale at the check in station. Cell service was basically non existent with Verizon, and given the frequency of severe weather in Oklahoma it’s important to be weather aware. We were not and the park ranger luckily notified us of severe warnings. Wildlife is abundant throughout the park and has free range even in the campground, we saw longhorns 20 yards from our site. Would revisit again.

Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park
Beautiful and well kept
I came here with my dog and cat in April and I would say it is one of the most beautiful well kept campgrounds I’ve ever been in as I make my way cross country from Florida to California that wasn’t all booked up and in fact, I was the only tenter there.
I picked a spot that had a red rock wall cove because I knew it would protect us from the coyotes. And I was right — by dusk you can hear them howl and yelp in the bushes so definitely watch your pets especially at night.
The camping spots are big enough, so you have ample room. I could’ve probably fit 3 to 4 tents easily in my spot with room to spare.
The only thing is, there’s no water at the tent site so I borrowed some from the recreational spigot across the way.
The bathrooms are semi-rustic but I’m sure you’ll survive.
There were a lot of old trees and moss on the ground so the ecology is really healthy and I don’t know if it’s because I was there in the spring.
I also like that they have ice and firewood delivery. Their café and snack bar was also a nice touch.
I saw mostly RVs. But they’re mostly in the back of the park.
They also have other amenities like a swimming pool, volleyball courts, playgrounds etc. It would be a perfect place for a family event.

Beautiful location
Beautiful water & mountain views. Entry way definitely makes it secluded & could use a machete trim as branches were unkind to our vehicle & small camper. Advise to only come by 4 wheel drive as a few trenches & soft surface at site.
Alexandria C.GuideGreat Plains State Park Dispersed Campsite
Beautiful spot but rough road
Google Maps correctly navigated me to the side of the lake but the road was rough! Giant potholes and probably impossible in what conditions unless you had a really good four-wheel-drive. Me and my Subaru seemed to get in okay but it was a negotiation!
Brian P.ScoutCreekside Cabins and RV Park
Quiet and comfortable
The property has 12 RV lots and 4 cabins. It also has water and sewer hookups. It is nice and quiet here and not a lot of light or noise polution either.

Tons of wildlife
Visited first week of November 2025 during the government shutdown. Campground and all trails were open. Visitors center and environmental education center were closed. There was a camp host on site. All bathrooms were being maintained. PLEASE NOTE THE CAMPGROUND MAP ON THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE WEBSITE IS OUTDATED. I booked site 22 to be close to the restrooms and showers only to find out the building no longer existed. The area marked “Restroom & Shower Complex” is dirt. Also the two restrooms directly across from site 34 no longer existed either. I attached a picture with red Xs marking those out. The area marked “Central Restroom” is the only restroom with running water, flush toilets, and showers. All other restrooms on the map are vault toilets. Campground had lots of trees that made the sites feel a little more private even though some sites were close together. There are 4 individual shower rooms. Water was warm and it seemed that both the central bathroom and showers were heated. Firewood bundles and ice available on the backside of the campground entrance station. Cash only and self pay. So much wonderful wildlife. Take the time during the first hour of sunrise and the last hour before sunset to drive around to look at wildlife. I was able to see elk, deer, turkeys, and of course the bison and longhorns which are out and about all day.

Wildlife viewing: Campers can observe native Oklahoma wildlife at the nearby Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. "If you drive to Witchita Mountain Wildlife Refuge you may see elk, bison, Longhorns and deer. The hiking trails are great and worth the visit," reports Kathi V., who stayed at Military Park Fort Sill Medicine Creek RV Park.
Water recreation: Lake activities are popular during warmer months. "We stayed for 3 nights, view of Mount Scott was amazing. Had our 2 golden retrievers with us and they loved the lake," shares Kelsey S. about her experience at Lake Lawtonka.
What campers like
Scenic mountain views: The unique landscape offers impressive views of Mount Scott. As one camper notes, "East Side – Lake Lawtonka primitive tent camping sites are very well scattered and away from each other... Both sides have a beautiful view of Mount Scott & Lake lawtonka," according to Justin F.
Campsite privacy: Many campgrounds offer well-spaced sites. At Pecan Grove RV Resort, "For being a RV park, the spaces were not right on top of each other like some parks are," according to Lisa M., making it more comfortable for those seeking some separation from neighboring campers.
Friendly management: Campground staff receive consistent praise for helpfulness. One camper at Buffalo Bob's RV Park shared, "John the person who runs the place is very helpful and friendly. It's a nice clean Park, easy in and out," demonstrating the value of good management to the camping experience.

Road noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some campgrounds. "The only negative thing I have to say about this campsite is there's no restrooms for the primitive camping areas. Both of them have only portable outhouses," notes Justin F. about Lake Lawtonka East Campground.
Restroom availability: Facilities vary significantly between campgrounds. "We didn't check them out because we were so far from them," mentions Ashley H. about the bathrooms at Lake Lawtonka East Campground, indicating the distance can be an issue for some campers.

Tips from RVers
Electrical connections: RV campers should prepare for specific electrical requirements. "All rv sites are 50 amp, so bring an adapter for your 30amp rig," advises Ashley H. about Lake Lawtonka, a critical detail for those planning to connect to power.
