6 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Lake Texoma State Park and Eisenhower State Park offer upscale glamping accommodations nestled along the shores of one of Oklahoma's largest reservoirs. Luxury canvas tents and geodesic domes at these locations feature comfortable queen beds with premium linens, private decks overlooking the water, and climate control systems for year-round comfort. "The sites are nicely spaced, have concrete pads - which is uncommon on Lake Texoma - and beautiful views," noted one visitor about their glamping experience. Thousand Trails Lake Texoma and Little Glasses Resort also provide distinctive glamping pods with modern amenities including en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, kitchenettes with basic cooking supplies, and electrical outlets for charging devices. Each glamping unit maintains a connection to nature while providing substantially more comfort than traditional camping.
Hiking trails wind through the wooded areas surrounding these glamping resorts, offering opportunities to spot local wildlife including deer and various bird species. Water activities dominate the recreation scene with dedicated swimming areas, boat rentals, and premier fishing spots accessible directly from several glamping sites. A recent visitor highlighted that "the swimming area is the best, but you have to walk way down a hill to get to it." Lake Texoma's reputation for excellent striper fishing attracts anglers to the glamping locations, while sunset views from private decks create memorable experiences for couples and families. Most glamping accommodations remain open year-round, though peak season runs April through October when all amenities operate at full capacity. Reservations are recommended well in advance for summer weekends when these distinctive accommodations frequently reach capacity.
"Restrooms were close, showers were a little bit of a walk. Each tent site has a table and fire pit. Lovely views of lake Texoma. Great hiking and rock climbing opportunities."
"The trails are great and the Rangers are friendly and share a lot of knowledge. Cool beach with caves. New food trailer with great food. Great fishing on beautiful Lake Texoma."

"The grills are combined with the fire pits. The RV area has showers that are separate from the toilets. There are no electrical outlets or hand dryers or soap dispensers."
"Lake Texoma State Park has a few different campgrounds. We stayed at Catfish Bay for a quick little weekend getaway. The campground was nice, quiet, and clean."
"One big issue with this park is the distance to the actual lake itself."
"When you first drive into the park, to the left they are in the process of building an entire new section and it looks nice. I wish they would do some upkeep on the rest of the park as well."
"Water and trash were close by. Pit toilets were a bit of a walk. Showers and flush toilets were in the section with hook ups. Mainly RV’s there, some tents, vans, etc. Amazing views of Lake Texoma!!"

"Visited this private resort on 9/14/19 for a quick night away from the city. They have a handful of full hookup RV sites and cabins. There is also a marina with a store and kayaks for rent."
GuideThe KOA is clean and well maintained. There is lits of space for the pull throughs. Dog park is amazing, host are friendly and kind. They are very welcoming and the store is small, but clean with a little bit of everything for everyone! We will definitely be back!
TravelerSuper easy in and out. Pretty much every amenity that you would want at a very modern campground.
LegendGot here after Labor day weekend and mostly all to ourselves.
ScoutGreat place to camp for a few nights. Boat ramp, clean showers, Lakeview, swimming, fishing, campfires. Clean, safe place to enjoy yourself.
GuideWe needed an overnight spot on our way back home to Texas, and we're so glad that we picked this park! Easy on and easy off of Highway 69, and It's located right next to the Choctaw Casino complex.
Parking for registration is located right by the office, and all the park staff we dealt with were very friendly and helpful. The road from the highway to the park is very easy to navigate for any size rig. The same inside the park; it's well-marked and easy to navigate. Even though it's not too far from the main road, we didn't hear any traffic noise at all.
We were assigned to pull-thru site number 41. All the sites are concrete and appear fairly level. Our site was level side to side, and a few inches off from front to rear. There are very few shade trees for the majority of the park sites. Power, Water, and Sewer were all conveniently located, and the power supply had no issues at all. We use a power management system, and all electrical parameters were spot on during our stay. Water pressure was okay, and the in-ground sewer connection was conveniently located. There is also a picnic table and a covered trash can located at each site.
Bathrooms, Showers, laundry facilities, and the pool are all located at the registration office building and are in great shape. In fact, they are the cleanest and nicest facilities that we've ever experienced at an RV park. They are on par with what you would expect at a 5-Star resort.
Wi-Fi, Satellite, OTA: there is free Wi-Fi in the park with numerous repeater towers, so each site has a fairly strong signal- we achieved 101 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up. We got AT&T 5G with 3 bars and achieved 330 Mbps down and 11.3 Mbps up. If you need clear access for satellite reception, trees will not be an issue. Also, you can pick up approximately 50 OTA stations with good HD quality reception.
Dog Park: They have a nice fenced-in park that is divided into two separate areas. They provide doggie bags and a trash can.
Amenities: Lots of items are listed on their website. They have a propane area where you can fill your existing tanks, exchange tanks, or even buy new tanks. They also have RV supplies and parts located in the office area.
Summary: A great place for an overnight or an extended stay. They provide free shuttle service to the Casino Complex that has plenty of restaurants and a multi-screen movie theater. The park map provides a very accurate rendition of the park. See my attached photos for more details.
Bottom line- this park is owned by the Choctaw Nation and is part of the Casino Complex. So, the RV park is maintained at an exceptional level since income from the RV park is not critical. They just want their RV guests to have a first-class experience. Even if you don't gamble or dine out, take the free shuttle over to the casino complex just to see what it offers. It's truly a Vegas-like experience. This park deserves its high rating, and I do not hesitate to recommend it!
ScoutRV Camp sites are super nice and well spaced. Really cool fossil sites near the lake shore. Nice huge lake. And really good trails (for North East Texas).
GuideType of Stay: Ram Promaster 3500 Ext (22ft)
Company: Dog
$18 for a Standard Non Electric Spot
We stayed in spot A08 & I highly recommend it. Incredible view all day w/ Instant Access to Water (you gotta trot down rocks in pictures but it's easy enough)
Zero issue with bugs.
Pros: Bathroom (Toilet Paper), Showers (Weak Pressure), Quiet, Personal Fire Rings. Gas Station/ convenient store & a few restaurants right outside the grounds.
LegendReally beautiful scenery; the sites are pretty well spaced with the upper loop being better for larger RVs and the lower loop more for tent and car camping. Sites are extremely well maintained and the campground is very peaceful. We stayed in 42 which only had one neighbor but our fav site was 54. It is farther out than Buckhorn but closer proximity to a wal mart and just perfect for us. Buckhorn is busier.
GuideThis campground is away from the chaos of the main part of Chickasaw National Recreation area.
Lake Texoma straddles the Texas-Oklahoma border with 89,000 acres of water and 580 miles of shoreline. Water levels fluctuate seasonally, with spring typically bringing higher water and summer seeing gradual drawdowns. Most campgrounds around the lake offer year-round access, though some facilities close during winter months.
Hiking trails: Burns Run West features a four-mile hiking trail with bird watching opportunities. "We did see a lot of birds along the shoreline" notes a visitor to Burns Run East, where nature enthusiasts can spot local wildlife.
Fishing: Lake Texoma's waters draw anglers throughout the year. A camper at Platter Flats calls it "great place for fishing, and if you are looking for a wonderful sunset, you have found the best place for it." The lake is known for striper fishing.
Water activities: Swimming areas vary across campgrounds. At Burns Run West, a camper reports, "Nice swimming area for the two young kids. Water hookups right next to campsite." For boating enthusiasts, Little Glasses Resort provides convenient lake access with "beautiful lake views."
Waterfront camping: Sites along the shoreline offer direct water access. A camper at Preston Bend - Lake Texoma mentions, "Peninsula juts out into water with lovely views of sunrise & sunset. Small campground with clean and nice but simple facilities."
Shade coverage: Summer heat can be intense, making shaded sites valuable. A camper at Eisenhower State Park notes, "Most camp sites are shaded with pull through sites full hook ups, well maintained and quiet."
Accessibility options: Some areas offer better mobility access than others. A camper reported, "We stayed in Loop C which has large pull thru sites and full hookups. Loop C is wooded so there is sufficient shade to cut out the sun."
Campsite variety: From yurt camping at Lake Texoma to RV sites and primitive tent camping, options vary widely. Some campgrounds like Thousand Trails Lake Texoma offer glamping alternatives for those seeking more comfort.
Seasonal considerations: Summer brings crowds and heat. A visitor warns, "In the summer it gets very hot, nice hiking." Spring and fall offer milder temperatures and fewer people.
Reservation systems: Most campgrounds require advance booking, especially for summer weekends. A camper at Eisenhower noted, "I preregistered and thought I was ready to go. The gate guard said I still had to go inside to check-in."
Beach access: Look for campgrounds with dedicated swimming areas. A visitor to Burns Run West shares, "We had such a great time while camping here. The sites were a good size and had lots of shade. We had an amazing view of the lake!"
Playground options: Some campgrounds offer play structures. Lakeside Campground includes family-friendly amenities. "The sites are pretty close together. Our neighbors were very friendly but I like having a little more space," notes one family camper.
Group sites: For family reunions or larger gatherings, Lake Texoma State Park offers spaces for multiple families. "Our site was right on the lake. Luckily no one was in the site next to us, so we enjoyed a gentle slope down to the water," reports a visitor.
Hookup availability: Full-service RV sites are available at multiple campgrounds. A visitor to Lake Texoma State Park mentions, "We stayed here in October at an RV site right on the water. It didn't have a sewer hookup, which was kind of disappointing but we made it work."
Site levelness: Some campgrounds have more level pads than others. At Walnut Creek Resort, a camper mentioned, "The one thing I didn't care for was the levelness of our spot, it was a little touch & go with my mother & her walker."
Seasonal closures: Be aware that some services close during winter. A Thousand Trails camper notes, "As for the rest of the camp, most amenities due to winter months and covid were shut down. Did see people enjoying the hot tub."
