    Fort Cobb State Park Campground

    Whites Catfish Cove

    We stayed in the Whites Catfish Cove campground at site #16 during Father’s Day Weekend. This site was located on both sides of the roadway and was at the end of the road. It was hard to back into given the many vehicles parked on the street. I would not recommended this site for longer rv’s or travel trailers. It had 30 amp hook up and water available. No sewer hookup, but dump site was not far off. Bath houses were close by, but could have been cleaned a little more.

    Walking distance to lake beach swim area and playground directly across from this site (great if you have kids).

    Prime spots for this campground area would be site #60, 62, 64, 66

    Pros: Close to lake Close to playground Only one camper next to you

    Cons: Small site No sewer Fire pit was overgrown with grass Right next to busy roadway

    Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area

    "LETRA" on Fort Sill Base

    Military CG on Fort Sill's base. Spent 5 weeks here. Scenery and base is beautiful. It's in the Wichita Mountains near Mt Scott and Medicine Park. Clean lake with paddle boat and kayak rentals. Mini golf, beach and water slides. Nice museum and Indian Cemetaries on base. Saw geese, fox, Coyotes, Buffalo, prairie dogs and rattle snakes. All sites are pull through and fairly level. Full hookups with 30 & 50 amp service. Laundry room with 4 washers & dryers, $1 (when working). There is also a laundrette by the Commissary. Didn't use showers or restroom but checked them out. Ladies room was very dated and needs a really good cleaning.
    There are a lot of long term rvs. Some not stayed in by the owners the entire time we were there. We didn't have any issue getting the site we reserved as someone mentioned in a previous review. The staff was nice when we asked to change our site to one with a better view. Biggest con was absolutely no warning on their site that there is training going on all around the CG. If you have a Veteran with PTSD like I do prepare him/her that they shoot howitzer rounds at any given time. We had no clue and the 1st week there was a rough one for my DAV. Do not use Letra Gate. It's closed. Ignore GPS and go to Apache Gate. Better yet set GPS for Apache Gate. It's the quickest route and you won't have to drive through the busy base and narrow roads.

    Pecan Grove RV Resort

    Love Gina & Glen!

    We stayed for 8 months & it has been our favorite campground to date! It’s quiet, clean, friendly & most importantly safe! Gina & Glen are so sweet- they take very good care of the campground & are constantly doing more to improve it! Propane on site, wifi, dog run, showers/bathrooms, laundry, & storm shelter.

    Fort Cobb State Park Campground

    Great For Fishing

    In our opinion after coming from a really great campground with everything you need, this park didnt really rate too high on our scale. However, others might think differently. It was a great.campground for fishing (we dont fish). There is a store near where we were staying that catered to those fisherman. Also had a kitchen with several items on their menu. Boat rental is available. The pull through site we reserved was not paved. There was a kiddie park right across from our site that had spider webs all over it. A downer for those in tents, you have to pay for showers. There were handicap rv site near restrooms. Some wildlife, bugs (something Ive never seen before flew on me and gave me a nasty bite) the sites are really close together and traffic is heavy. Roads are thin. Picnic tables and fire ring was available at our site. The pier was pretty nice and we enjoyed watching the geese. There is a dump station just outside the exit across the street from park office. No full hook ups on our site. There looked to be some really nice sites right off the water, overlooking the lake. Not much shade where we were at even though I reserved a spot with shade, it only covered about half of our rig.

    Doris Campground

    Locals Gem of Oklahoma

    Absolutely wonderful camping and hiking!! Lots of camping spots - and most were well distanced for plenty of privacy. Due to COVID all spots require pre-registration online and only self contained vehicles are permitted (all bathrooms are closed). There is no service in the park, but about 2 bars next to the Visitor’s center (which is also closed), so be sure to reserve a spot before you get close to the park. Some sites are dry and some have electric hookups. No water available due to an ongoing E. Coli issue. The camp host was really nice and stopped by both nights we were there. There were lots of hikes and we are looking forward to coming back for an extended stay. For hiking, we loved 40 foot hole (nice waterfall) and Little Baldy for sunset. Wish we had been here a couple weeks earlier because I bet the trees would have been at peak fall foliage color. We saw long horns and bison several times, but unfortunately didn’t see any prairie dogs. We heard this park is mostly used by locals (~80 miles from Oklahoma City), and not many long distance travelers hear about it. Also heard there are great mountain biking trails.

    nice overnight spot

    overall, this campground was a nice overnight spot on our route to Dallas. There were nice paved pull through sites and a good gravel pad surrounded by grass.  There were large trees, which seem rare in this part of Texas, but they were mainly on the perimeter back in sites.   The restrooms looked recently redone, but it did take a while for the hot water in the shower to warm up.  Be warned that mosquitoes were pretty thick when we visited.

    Camp Doris

    Outer Loop Sites Almost Always Great

    Doris CG, Wichita Mnts, OK: This park was a pleasant surprise. The hiking was splendid and much better than expected. The visitor center deserves at least an hour of time. Fabulous. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good

    (71 yr olds in 17’ trailer.)

    Overall Rating: 4 for the scenery, and bathroom cleanliness. General layout of campsites is a bit of a minus.
    Price 2023: $ 11 for non electric w interagency pass

    Security: Not at night Usage during visit: Full during spring break Site Privacy: Open sites. Some back up to each other. Our site, 9 backs up to #7. Site Spacing: varies - the map in photos is pretty representative Pad surface: blacktop Reservations: Yes Campground Noise: A bit noisy during this spring break week. Outside Road Noise: None. Some campsites back up towards the campground access road. I would rather have one of these sites than any inner loop site I saw. Through Traffic in campground: No Electric Hookup: E loop Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: Yes Potable Water Available: Yes, near the pit toilets.
    Generators: Allowed Bathroom: New and clean pit toilets in most loops . Whoever cleans the pit toilets has high cleanliness standards. . . E-loop has flush toilets. The sinks and toilets were very clean . Showers: Near E Loop. Fairly clean after a busy weekend. Pull Throughs: I didn’t see any Cell Service (AT&T): No bars at Campground. 2 bars outside of visitor center Setting: In an oak Forest. Recent Weather: 70s downtown 30s Solar: Yes, but when trees leaf out, the solar will still be available in most sites but not as great.
    Host: Not in all loops Rig Size: E loop has some larger rigs. Sites: I don’t particularly like the sites on the inside of the loops. Water view sites are circled on the map. I would be happy with these. Best sites in Loop A: 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 13, 15. E63 is the only site I liked in the electric loop. A 7&9 are not good sites as far as privacy from each other.

    Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park

    Gorgeous sites, crappy bathrooms

    Awesome surroundings, incredible hikes, broken pool, showers and toilets were very rough but worked well.

    Trees at site, a grill, picnic table. 2 shower and bathhouses both far from site. Lovely creek behind us.

    Worth it for the hikes, sites, and views. All awesome. Best of all were the endless wildflowers on the ridge hike.

    Dump station but water hookups and electric. Sites are close to one another but not cramped.

    Verizon and ATT worked well!

    Came for pool, it was out of commission. When I asked about it they gave a half refund, this wa very appreciated! Nice staff too.

Guide to Elgin

Campsites near Elgin, Oklahoma range from military facilities to lakeside locations, providing diverse terrain and amenities for outdoor enthusiasts. The area falls within the Cross Timbers ecoregion, characterized by a mix of prairie and small oak forests. Summer temperatures typically reach 90-100°F, while winter nights can drop below freezing, affecting camping comfort and accessibility throughout the seasons.

What to do

Fishing at Lake Lawtonka: Visitors staying at Lake Lawtonka East Campground enjoy proximity to excellent fishing opportunities. "We needed a quick spot for an impromptu camping trek so hike the Wichita mountains. Setup directly next to the lake and had a great view of Mt. Scott at sunset!" notes camper Ryin J.

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.

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Many rv sites near Elgin, Oklahoma operate on different reservation systems. For Military Park Fort Sill, "If you don't have a military ID you can stop at the visitor center and get a pass for your stay," explains Rosemary M., highlighting important access information.

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 for camping with families

Recreational areas: When camping with children, plan for additional entertainment options. "No playground for kids, but load up and go down to the rec area for picnicking, swimming and playground," advises Ashley H., providing a practical solution for families staying at Lake Lawtonka.

Safety considerations: Security ranks high for families choosing camping locations. One long-term camper at Pecan Grove RV Resort noted it's "quiet, clean, friendly & most importantly safe," making it suitable for extended family stays.

Tent camping locations: For families preferring tent camping, site selection requires careful consideration. "The first primitive campsite is called the ponds. It's very heavily wooded and Lush. The other primitive campsite is very open with almost no trees," explains Justin F., offering useful comparisons for families choosing between camping environments.

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.

Site orientation considerations: Positioning your RV for optimal views may require planning. "Make sure you have a long electric cable. Service was on the wrong side if you want to face the lake," notes Mimi B. about her experience at Time Out RV Park.

Amenities for extended stays: Long-term RVers appreciate additional facilities. "Propane on site, wifi, dog run, showers/bathrooms, laundry, & storm shelter," were highlights mentioned by a camper who stayed at Pecan Grove RV Resort for eight months, demonstrating the importance of comprehensive amenities for extended stays.
