    Tulsa NE-Will Rogers Downs KOA

    Nice clean campground

    Spent one night at this campground. Grounds were clean, restrooms and showers were also clean. The check in office was inviting and pleasing. We didn’t use the laundry facility while we were there, but they are available should the need arise. Bathrooms were locked and secure and passcode was required to enter. Passcode was provided upon check in. Our site was a pull through level gravel pad with full hookups. The off leash dog park was a small fenced in area with a couple of benches. Horse track and casino were well within walking distance from the camp sites. Quiet location, just off the highway. Highway could not be heard from inside our camper.

    Checotah-Lake Eufaula KOA

    Checotah, OK….Really nice campground .

    If I was in area would stay again. Easy to get to and they take you to your site. Our 42’ 5th wheel snuggled in nicely. Sites have a large patio with chairs, table, gas grill and one for a wood fire. Each site is nicely landscaped. It’s quiet except for a bit of road noise but certainly nothing to complain about. You can still hear the sounds of nature. It’s very clean, lovely staff and gentleman that takes you to your site was very friendly and welcoming. They do have a laundry but didn’t use it. Our 2 dogs had a great time in the dog park which was really close. Highly recommend!!

    Claremore Expo RV Park

    In town Rv lot

    I wouldn’t say this is camping. The people that usually stay here are in town for events at the Expo or driving thru. There is a lot to do nearby. TWithin walking distance there’s the expo center (you can go in and pet horses) and a Rec center with a pool. You can go to Will Rogers Museum, JM Davis fun museum, RSU has a nice little hiking trail as does the Lake.

    Dog Iron Ranch & Will Rogers Birthplace

    Gorgeous place

    I grew up in Oologah and frequented the birthplace often. There’s lots of animals to pet and lots of history to learn. You can tour the birthplace for free, there’s an old barn to explore, you can go hiking, there’s horse trails as well. It’s very close to Oologah lake so you could go swimming for the day, rent seados or a boat etc. You can rent a spot for $25 to RV camp with a maximum of 3 days. You have to apply for it as well. No smoking is allowed and you can only drink past 5 pm (wine and beer only) if that’s your thing. It is such a beautiful place, rich in history and I highly recommend visiting at least once!

Guide to Kellyville

Lakeside camping opportunities surround Kellyville, Oklahoma, located in Creek County about 20 miles southwest of Tulsa. The area sits at approximately 800 feet elevation with hot summers where temperatures frequently exceed 90°F from June through August. Winter lows regularly drop below freezing, making April through October the primary camping season when most facilities offer full water hookups.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: Heyburn Lake near Heyburn Park provides excellent fishing with minimal boat traffic. "I live a short drive away in Tulsa, but when hunting season started, this is where I stayed on the weekends. Lots of WMA land to be explored, the park is nice and quiet with beautiful surroundings and a smaller, peaceful lake to enjoy," notes Stephen R.

Wildlife watching: Bring binoculars to spot diverse birds and animals. "We actually saw a pair of bald eagles and noodlers while out kayaking! Can't wait to go back," shares Jacquelyn L. from Heyburn Park. Multiple visitors report eagle sightings throughout the year.

Boating access: Appalachia Bay provides boat launch facilities and waterfront camping. "Weekend it gets full of atv riders due to the huge atv island that sits off the shoreline of the bay," explains Jason, indicating the popularity of motorized recreation in certain areas.

What campers like

Sandy beaches: Multiple campgrounds feature swimming areas with natural sand. At Sheppard Point, "The lake has a great swimming beach area - this seems to be a fishing lake, only a few jet skis were out besides fishing boats. Sandy bottom lake near swim beach," according to Megan B.

Uncrowded swimming: Many campers appreciate the quieter swimming areas compared to other Oklahoma lakes. "We love this little lake bc the swimming area rarely has people there and it's a nice long sandy beach," reports Jennifer D. about Heyburn Park.

Playground facilities: Families appreciate the recreational options for children. Jennifer M. shares about Heyburn Park: "Fun playground for the kids. Surrounded by water. Clean bathrooms. Season ends 10/26-no water but still has electricity. Host was helpful. Plenty of large wooded spots."

What you should know

Campsite leveling challenges: Many sites throughout the area require significant leveling. At The RV Park at Keystone Lake, which opened recently, "Streets & parking areas are blacktopped and pretty level," notes Neda H., making it an exception to the common leveling issues.

Seasonal water availability: Water services typically shut down from late October through March at most campgrounds. "Stayed here for several days. Season ends 10/26-no water but still has electricity," confirms Jennifer M. about Heyburn Park.

Supply accessibility: The nearest major shopping is in Bristow or Sapulpa. "It is near a little town of Kellyvielle and about 10 miles from Bristow, which has a nice Walmarts for getting things you might need," advises Melanie W.

Train noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience railroad noise. At Warrior Campground, Richard G. notes the campground is "fairly close to a primary road and an interstate highway," so light sleepers should select sites accordingly.
