      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.

      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

      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.

      Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area

      Beautiful Setting, but Military Ordinance can be noisy even inside a Cabin

      Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area, Fort Sill, OK

      Cabin 3 (both late June and mid-October)

      Lake Elmer Thomas(LETRA) is a 334 acre lake located on Fort Sill in Comanche County, Oklahoma. LETRA offers a pretty nice location for recreating. Offering quite a bit for families in a limited space.                                                                                                            •A nice beach and cordoned swim area, complete with restrooms and shower house(11a-7p)…lifeguards                                                                                                          •Sand volleyball court                                                                                                             •Watersport rentals: paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, pontoon boat                                      •Mini golf course                                                                                                                         •Disc golf course                                                                                                                     •RV/Camper area                                                                                                                         •Rustic rental cabins                                                                                                                    •Random primitive tent camping                                                                                        •Fishing                                                                                                                                              •Nearby off-base hiking(Mount Scott and the Medicine Park Wildlife Refuge)              •Bicycling-ample quiet, paved road opportunities but surprisingly limited off road options 

      Tent Camping: there are no specifically designated loop or numbered site tent areas. Tenters are permitted to camp all along the lake’s edge in the grassy area. There are a few picnic tables and elevated charcoal grills(no ground fires permitted), so you may have to do without. There are also a few picnic tables under shelters, but half are in a state of disrepair and caution-taped off. Tenters cannot set up tents within the cabin rental inner circle. 

      The modern facility restrooms are across from the playground as you enter the cabin rental peninsula. Tent campers are able to utilize the shower house/restrooms in the RV/Camper section, as well as the beach areas during open hours. There is no ground cover to separate one tent from the next…all can be seen and heard. 

      RV/Camper Sites: big rigs are lined up side by side in a separate gravel loop immediately to the left of the entrance. Sites have water and electric hookups. The nicest shower house/restroom is located there. There is a small patch of grass between sites, picnic table and elevated charcoal grill. These sites are closest to the entrance, beach area, watersport rental and campground activities. 

      Cabin Rentals: log home rentals are on a small peninsula with great views of Mount Scott and Lake Elmer Thomas. At the time of this review, you must bring your own bedding linens/blankets, towels, etc. I would also recommend packing extra eating utensils, condiments and any other items that you would take camping. We rented Cabin 3, which the website says will sleep 4…inaccurate. One full size bed and a small futon will sleep two average-sized adults and one small child in marginal comfort. The table only provides two chairs, not four for two not four. I would subtract 1-2 persons on the cabins unless you count floor space. Cabin 3 was$80 nightly. 

      Painted turtles are in abundance around the lake, as are smallish ‘fist-sized’ tarantulas. Bicycling the Artillary Range perimeter roadways on base, coyote dash across in early morning hours. Note: you are on a military base, so there are a number of restrictions that you need to be aware of and abide by. 

      Additionally, the campground is positioned along the northern side of the Artillery range. Yes, you will see and hear C-Ram’s lighting up the sky randomly during the day and night hours, as well as other ordinance. I enjoyed the display and out-of-the-ordinary disruption. Think unanticipated fireworks.

      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.

    Guide to Fort Sill

    Fort Sill camping destinations sit within the ancient Wichita Mountains, where granite peaks formed over 500 million years ago create a unique landscape in southwestern Oklahoma. The area experiences hot summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 95°F and mild winters, making spring and fall the most comfortable seasons for outdoor activities. Artillery training at Fort Sill can create unexpected noise disturbances that affect campgrounds within a 15-mile radius.

    Water recreation: Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area provides multiple water activities during summer months. According to one visitor, "A nice beach and cordoned swim area, complete with restrooms and shower house(11a-7p)…lifeguards... Watersport rentals: paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, pontoon boat."

    What campers like

    Military history access: Military Park Fort Sill Medicine Creek RV Park serves as a convenient base for exploring the fort's historical sites. A reviewer mentioned, "Within a few miles of the campground is amazing fishing and hiking. Fort Sill is a nice base with everything you may need."

    Clean facilities: Buffalo Bob's RV Park maintains well-kept amenities that receive consistent praise. One camper noted, "We came to Lawton to see family for Christmas and this place was very clean with both pull thru and back in sites. It was perfect for being near family for the holiday."

    Wildlife encounters: The proximity to nature is a major draw for visitors to Camp Doris. A camper shared, "Hiking trails can be accessed directly from Doris Campground, or there are numerous other trails in other areas a short drive away."

    What you should know

    Water quality concerns: Some campgrounds in the region have reported water issues. At Camp Doris, a visitor warned, "Please note that at the time of this review (3/2020) there is NO potable water anywhere in the WMWR. An e.coli contamination in 2017 is still not resolved."

    Electrical adapters needed: RV sites near Fort Sill, Oklahoma may require specific equipment. At Lake Lawtonka East Campground, one camper advised, "All rv sites are 50 amp, so bring an adapter for your 30amp rig."

    Artillery training noise: Military exercises create unexpected sounds, especially at LETRA. A reviewer cautioned, "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."

    Reservation reliability: Booking systems may have limitations. At LETRA, one camper reported, "You can reserve a spot online but they will not save your spot for you. I visit yearly and have never gotten the spot I reserved."

    Tips for camping with families

    Beach facilities: Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area offers child-friendly water options. A visitor described, "There is a nice sandy beach area, waterslides, paddle boats and kayaks for rent, a restaurant and a playground in the camping area."

    Recreation options: Various campgrounds provide family activities beyond hiking. According to one Lake Elmer Thomas visitor, "Mini golf course... Disc golf course... Random primitive tent camping... Fishing."

    Seasonal timing: Consider school breaks carefully when planning trips to popular campgrounds. One Camp Doris visitor noted, "Weekends at WMWR are very popular beginning early in the camping season making it difficult to find open spots by Friday evening."

    Tips from RVers

    Connectivity considerations: Cell service varies dramatically between rv sites near Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Pecan Grove RV Resort offers better coverage with "wifi" according to a reviewer who stayed "for 8 months & it has been our favorite campground to date!"

    Site selection strategy: At Buffalo Bob's RV Park, a camper recommended, "John the person who runs the place is very helpful and friendly. It's a nice clean Park, easy in and out. It's on the plain side, but all the sites have concrete pads and a little bit of space between rigs."

    Gate access information: When staying at Fort Sill campgrounds, approach routes matter. For LETRA, one camper advised, "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."
