Best Tent Camping near Henryetta, OK

341 Reviews

Tent campgrounds near Henryetta, Oklahoma offer several rustic options for outdoor enthusiasts seeking simpler accommodations. Okmulgee & Dripping State Park Campground provides secluded tent sites amid shade trees, while Lake McAlester and Sunset Bay provide additional tent camping alternatives in the greater region. Most sites operate year-round with varying levels of accessibility and amenities depending on the season and location.

Tent campsites throughout the area typically provide basic facilities with limitations visitors should prepare for. Sunset Bay offers drinking water, picnic tables, and toilet facilities, making it more suitable for those seeking minimal amenities. Many sites lack electrical hookups or showers, emphasizing the primitive nature of tent camping in this region. Bathroom facilities at locations like Okmulgee State Park are described as functional but outdated. Campers should note that some areas have restrictions, with Arrowhead Point reportedly having limited accessibility due to barriers blocking the entrance road.

The tent camping experience varies significantly between sites near Henryetta. Okmulgee State Park provides a quiet atmosphere near a bass fishing lake, offering water-related activities and shade trees for campers. Sunset Bay has been noted for its peaceful environment, though accessibility and security can depend on timing. A visitor remarked that "It was empty and quiet during our stay." Access to some areas like Newt Graham Lock and Dam requires additional effort, with uneven terrain and potentially difficult road conditions, but rewards tent campers with natural exploration opportunities including shoreline hiking and wildlife viewing. Most campgrounds remain uncrowded except during peak weekends, providing a genuine outdoor experience with limited interference from other visitors.

    Robbers Cave State Park — Robbers Cave State Resort Park

    Perfect for a quick trip

    We decided on a whim to get away from home for a few days. This was a very relaxing stay. We stayed in the ATV campground as we brought our side by side. We did more hiking than off road riding. We discovered that the off road area hasn’t been open for very long. We went out the first day, but not again after that since we felt like we needed to be with other riders for safety. The hiking is so nice here we have a 5 year old and he hiked with us on four different trails during our stay. We found registration an easy process, and it was easy to find our campsite once we arrived. Each spot has a picnic table, lantern hook, grill, and fire ring. There are other accommodations such as tent camping, hike to camp, and regular RV spots with concrete pads. We enjoyed our stay and we will come back.

    Bluff Landing

    Quiet, fishable, secluded

    Peaceful area outside of Tulsa metro on the outskirts of Broken Arrow near Coweta. 25min drive into Tulsa. 10min drive to Walmart and fast food. Checkout Smokies BBQ nearby for great food. Sites were pretty level using gravel. A few were completely shaded but most were barely shaded. Shoreline really close to campsites with boatdock and fishable shoreline. Restrooms were clean but very hot. Showers available but did not use. Fire ring, picnic tables and lantern hooks available. Dump station is clean and easily manageable. Grass needed to mowed especially since several snakes were seen. Whole area was pretty clean and peaceful.

    Robbers Cave State Park — Robbers Cave State Resort Park

    Something For Everyone

    This was our first trip in our new 21’ camper. Robbers Cave was quiet, and the sites were huge. Be sure to check if your site is flat, ours had a huge step down to the picnic table and fire ring. Plenty of tree cover, restrooms and showers if needed. They have upgraded most bathrooms/showers and have one left to upgrade in the RV parking.

    There is putt putt, a mini museum, fishing, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boats and playgrounds. If you want to rent a Yurt - they have two!

    They are also in the process of upgrading and building a huge boat house.

    WalMart is 40 minutes away but there is a small town less than 10 minutes with most amenities if you need something or just want a meal out.

    Highly recommend and we will be back.

    Wonderful sunsets along the rocky shore.  When the mist is rising over the waters a feeling of peace will wash over you.

    There are many water sites, some pull throughs, back in, some paved, some a bit uneven but this is still a great campground. Most site are shaded.

     Gates open at 6AM and close at 10PM 

    Check out Time 4PM, Check in Time 6PM 

    Quiet Hours: 10PM to 6AM 

    Camping is permitted in designated campsites only. Each campsite is limited to 1 wheeled camping unit with up to 3 tents. 

    Camping is limited to 14 consecutive days within any 30 day period. 

    Campers must occupy the campsite at least once during each 24 hour period.

    Lake Eufaula is a reservoir on the Canadian River which is upstream from the confluence with the Arkansas River. It is the largest capacity lake in Oklahoma. It has 800 miles of shoreline. The building of the dam began in 1956 and completed in 1964. The Wildlife Nature at the Eufaula State Park is amazing well worth a visit. You will find miles of hiking, biking, ATV, and equestrian trails in the 31,800 acres. There is a great amount of hunting for quail, deer, geese, and duck. Another great stop is the Eufaula Area Museum(temporarily closed due to COVID). An extra little tidbit is that Dirty Jobs filmed “Worm Dung Farmer” in Eufaula on November 14, 2003 and in Season 2 Episode 9 called “Dirtiest Water Jobs” featured “Catfish Noodling of Eufaula.  

    The lake draws fishermen to test their mettle at large and small mouth bass, Kentucky bass, crappie, catfish, sand bass, strippers, and others. The draw for this area is the great outdoors. Mainly fishing and boating. Fishing tournaments are plentiful. Shopping of just about any type should be far down the list for entertainment. Plan to have a relaxing and peaceful stay.

    Dogwood Campground — Lake Eufula State Park

    Excellent stop over

    Gorgeous sites with so many trees! Full hookup, enough space from neighbors while not being too spread out. Picnic tables, fire rings, shade, and easy walk to the restroom and lovely paths to the lake.

    Literally best bathrooms I’ve ever encountered in a park. Very ADA accessible, AIR CONDITIONED TOILETS?!, showers and toilets were single stalls, clean, roomy and had everything you need. Showers had warm water. 10/10

    Nice lake views, but not directly from site—have to walk to get there.

    ATT & Verizon had decent service at both sites.

    Stroud Municipal Lake

    Small and quite

    It is a nice little campground that has R.V. camping and tent camping. We like camping here because the campsite is next to the shore. There are some nice camping spots under shade trees. When you want to cool off you can just walk from your campsite to the water and get in and cool off. However don't wear white when you go swimming because after you go swimming white cloths turn orange. It does have a swim beach but we like to swim privately at camp. The fishing is pretty good. There is a playground and restrooms with showers. They only have about 25 campsites that are 1st come 1st serve. Getting a campsite near holidays like the 4th of July is almost impossible unless you go days early to get a spot. The campsites have picnic tables, grills and a fire ring. They also have trails for riding horses. Camping with electric is $18.00 Senior citizens (55 and up) and disabled citizens is $15.00 Primitive camping is$8.00

    Belle Starr Park Campground

    Lake Views

    This campground is a Corps of Engineers campground. As you drive in you are greeted by a toll booth building where you can either pick up your car tag or the attendant can give you a map with open sites. You must book the sites online through the recreation.gov website. The gates to this campground close at 10 pm & reopen at 6 am. In emergencies between 10 pm & 6 am you can exit the campground but can not re-enter as there are tire spikes. Check in time is stated as 6 pm and check out is 4 pm; however, we checked in around 3 pm.

    There are 3 sections to this campground: west, central, & east. The central campground appeared to be the most updated with wide, concrete spaces. Trees are abundant here and provide nice shade, but be mindful of falling branches. All sites have electricity 30/50 amp. Some sites have water located on site, some have water located about 40 ft away (bring extra water hoses), and some have no water. No sewers in any sites, but there are dump stations located within the campground.

    The campground has several bathhouses and vault toilets. I did not tour any of the women’s bathrooms but my husband said the men’s was dirty and the toilet would not flush.

    There are two playgrounds for children and lots of sandy beach areas to swim in and set up lawn chairs, etc... The campground also has a boat ramp and courtesy dock.

    We camped on site C58. The site was wide, clean, and has a concrete pad. It was well spaced from other campers and had a nice lake view even though we weren’t directly on the lake.

    Pros: •Lake Eufaula access •Sites directly on the lake or short walking distance •Gated campground •Has a variety of sites and able to accommodate big rv’s •Concrete pad sites

    Cons: •No sewer •Needs lawn maintenance •Bathrooms need cleaning & updating

    Sheppard Point

    Uncomfortable

    My RV spot is so unlevel it's almost unusable. Front to back there is 2 feet in elevation difference and a foot from side to side.

    The power pedestal, from the 120v 20amp receptacle, is putting out 134v. The neighboring spot's pedestal is putting out 103v.

    The bathroom near the campground was closed due to a water leak and a sign on the door said to use the restrooms near the beach. They were reasonably clean but not too private. There was nowhere to change except in the shower with its cheap curtain.

    Grass is very long in some areas, needs to be mowed to help with the amount of bugs.

    Each campsite has a fire ring, picnic table, and charcoal grill which is nice.
