This recreation area is part of Skiatook Lake
Clean facilities. Lots of activities for the kids such as pool, lake inflatables, putt-putt, indoor guided crafts, sand sifting, fire pits, and playground. You are able to cross over to the sister park and enjoy their amenities. We did not utilize their lake or marina areas. Kids don’t want to go anywhere else after spending the weekend here.
Stayed the night prior to a bass tournament. I was surprised to see weeds overgrown in the camp areas, the shoreline is covered in tall weeds. The fire rings were trashed and grill mostly unusable. Loud trucks and cars made it very noisy. Evidently there isn’t a speed limit or anyone out there enforcing any laws. I will return to fish but it’s not worth camping at. Cell service is very unreliable.
Site 51 was the best view. Long but narrow paved spot. We couldn't back all the way up because the tree was too low, but the spot was long enough where it wasn't an issue. The water spicket was about 80 ft away, and unfortunately we didn't have an adapter for the 30 amp. Otherwise this was a great stay with a beautiful sunset over the water. Be mindful of a couple trees overhanging the way in, but we were able to get through without issue hitting any. We have a 13.5 ft tall and 45 ft long fifth wheel. Mosquitoes were pretty bad so be prepared.
Our campsite, #33, was perched on top of a hill, accessible by a fairly long, steep incline. The site is not level and would be appropriate only for shorter RVs. The site's position made it one of the more isolated campsites so it was more private than others. Site #33 does not have its own water source. It shares one water spigot with 2 other sites.
Eufaula Lake was muddy and not very appealing. The camp grounds were well-maintained and the camp host was friendly.
This once cool camping lake looks unattractive and not taking care of of. Weeds in campgrounds, fire pits full of trash and grills all broken. There is no longer any personnel or workers living in the area. You are basically on your own with no Patrols or Law Enforcement. Loud people kept us up all night and we left early. Go elsewhere. Not family friendly anymore.
Until the state replaces these lecherous leprechauns who creep around and undress you with their eyes leering with their rotted teeth and unwashed bodies, I won't be back. The place is managed by drug addicts. This place is local to me and I went there often till 2023 when these folks took over. You'll probably find missing children in their closet. Seriously, these folks need to go. This was my favorite park, went for years but I won't go back till I know they are gone. I never felt afraid solo camping anywhere till I solo camped here after they took over. There's not enough locks on your camper door to sleep with them around. State of Oklahoma - DO BETTER. I spent a lot of money there but I won't spend one red cent til these folks are gone.
We had an absolutely wonderful first trip to Marval. However, we won the cabin decorating contest during the Halloween festivities this year and forgot to pick up our certicate for a two night stay in a deluxe cabin. We called when we were only one hour away and were reassured they would keep this for us and we could call to book our next stay at Marval. I called today to do so and was told by the general manager Stacy that I was given the wrong information by her staff and that maybe had I called within a week to rebook or turned around to get the paper certificate this would have been honored. I am extremely disappointed in this response when I was reassured that we did not need to turn around to get the certificate. I am also very disappointed in the way I was dismissed on the phone and told there was nothing she could do to make this right.
This park offers a lot of amenities from mini golf, swimming and fishing (guide service available). I was here in off season still plenty to do. If you find yourself here go eat at Captain John’s you will not be disappointed (try there cornbread)
We were there 2 years ago and it was perfect and peaceful. Quite a bit has changed since then. Random people yelling and fighting, loud motors tires squaling. This place hasn’t been kept up and it now attracts the random locals. Definitely not family friendly. We tried to find someone working but was told they go home at 4. Sadly you are on your own and we will not be back.
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!!
I can see the stars and the moon while hearing deer run through the woods, birds splashing in the water and coyotes howling. 12 miles/ 20 minutes to town for gas, groceries, laundry, etc. Minimal traffic mid -January, mostly boats and fishermen. Vault toilet is clean and water spigots are available and turned on. $10/night
No one works out there anymore and random people use camp sites without paying. It has really went down since our visit last spring. Locals said workers only work during the week and live 15 minutes away. Not safe since there is bad cell service as well.
We stayed one night in November. Easy on/off, though the service road isn’t in good shape. We were in site 13, closest to the highway along with two cabins and the playground. Extremely noisy so if traffic bothers you request a site towards the back. Lots of trees. Our site was also close to the toilets and showers which were very clean. Shower stalls are private with a door and a curtain but the stalls are very shallow. Don’t leave anything on the floor in the outer area or it will get wet. There is a very shallow bench to put your items on but not meant for sitting. Two hooks to hang your items which is appreciated. No lock on the bathroom door. Pull through 50 amp. We’re towing a 28ft Airstream and it was level enough we didn’t need to unhitch. Listed as a gravel site but more dirt than gravel. Full hook ups, no cable, limited wifi. $44.50 a night. The swing in the playground desperately needs some WD-40, lol. We would overnight here again if needed.
Just a short drive from Tulsa, Greenleaf State Park is a great place for a getaway. The park has tent, RV, and cabin accommodations along with one of the best gift shops in the Oklahoma State Park system. A splash pad is available during the Summer but put-put is available anytime.
RV sites are paved, and gravel, but could use some sewer hook up - dump stations are available and well equipped.
Great staff made this a great weekend getaway!
First time here, absolutely love it! The roads look like they've recently been blacktopped. Very easy to get to. Lots of shade, but there's sun if you want it. Beautiful lake view from my site. Clean vault toilet. No water available anywhere tho, which lowered my review to 4. No electric or dump station, so come prepared.
Beautiful view, quiet, but annoying folks. There is one site, B69, that someone needs to have the ability and the common sense to leave it as part of the day use area. There is a man-made path directly behind where a camper/rv parks that leads down to the shore/lake, that is heavily used by those who fish. In other words, they can and will, invade upon your site, your privacy, your solitude, all day, every day, to use this path to go fishing. So, even though the site is occupied by a PAYING camper, the hosts favor those free, day use fishermen, to allow them access to the lake for their pleasure. You, the paying camper, your pleasure does not matter. Mind you, this is NOT the only way down to the lake, just most convenient. There is no respect, common courtesy or consideration towards the camper who has PAID for the site, at all. The hosts may offer to move you, but if a person picks a specific site, why should they have to move to a different site? During the open season, find a different path to get to the lake!
I don’t normally leave reviews, but my experience at the facility needs to be shared.
I called the number provided and was able to find out info on cabin rentals . I asked what I would need to bring and a young girl explained just cooking pot and pans. I asked about a fire pit since I wanted to have a fire for hot dogs and marshmallows. Yes there are large pits was the answer. Thank goodness I camp on the regular, I’ll explain soon. She did warn me there are chickens near the cabin I wanted. Well good, I thought, I wouldn’t miss my own flock so bad.
Upon arrival, before noon, the office was closed. I walked back to my truck to get the phone number and saw a truck with a camp logo on it driving by, leaving…. Same young girl answers and says she is heading back to check me in. I get the key and drive over , get parked, and see the chicken coop, it’s pretty close to the cabin. The next thing I see is a big fire pit; full of trash! Flies everywhere! Well that can be cleaned up, right? There was chicken poo all over the steps and deck. That can be cleaned up , right? So I opened the door, flies and a dank smell hit me hard. . Nice. It appeared that the inside had not been cleaned either, sticky stuff on the stove, sink and fridge. The shower was a joke. There were extension cords running through a sliding window which left a half inch gap just open to the outside…. I plugged that with paper towels I had brought. There was a king size bed , but the pillows and sheets were stained. I found dead flies in the fridge as well. Before I brought anything in, I wiped down all of the surfaces. I spread my sleeping bag out on top of the provided bedding and covered up with a couple of blankets. I always bring towels as well, I’m glad I did, those are not provided either. I had also brought T - paper as a precaution, so glad I did…..
I really just wanted to make the best of this and I know it’s hard to keep these river cabins clean so I decided to tough it out. The next morning, I paid for my float and asked if I could have bags to clean out the fire pit… but then asked if THEY could clean it while I floated, the young girl handed me three trash bags and said “some one was supposed to get that”. I laid the trash bags on a log near the pit so they could be used.
My float went well and was great fun. Upon my return to the cabin, the fire pit trash had been burned and a plastic bag was still smoldering! There were still tin cans and other debris in there, and it stunk! So , I could not / would not use it for cooking or just lounging around! Later, I was hungry and decided to use the oven. When I opened it, there was a skillet with old moldy food in it! It smelled horrible and I gagged! I took a pic of the offending skillet and showed it to the other office worker; a lady and her little girl.
She said that she usually is the one that cleans , but she didn’t do this cabin this time.
She closed the office, called the owner, and removed the offending skillet. She stated there would be something done…. There was never an offer of compensation of any kind. My recommendation is don’t stay in the cabins.
The campground as a whole was just worn down and trashy. The staff were nice but didn’t really seem to want to be there.
Great location with lots of shade. Also, very close to the playground. Easy spot to back-in and is very level. Only downside is that you must be back in the park by 10:00 PM. They park managers will lock the gate and you either have to walk to your campsite or if you leave a car at the gate you can drive your secondary car while leaving your primary car outside the main gate. We were in town for a baseball tournament. Otherwise we would’ve been back in plenty of time.
Pros: Full hookup (sewer, water, 50 AMP) Pull thru site Level site Picnic table on-site Outdoor Pool Shady Petting zoo
Cons: Dirt site
I don’t know much about the Midwest or typical Midwest camping, but I thought it was perfect. It was really quiet (and totally empty), the area was clean and walking around the grounds was perfect… but it was October. I liked checking out the abandoned campsites that eroded due to flooding. I got spot 42 which has the perfect view and lots of space, but the pad is on an incline and my jacks couldn’t extend without using rocks that were already there for that very reason. Waking around, I really liked spots 54-58. They are close together, but such a beautiful spot.
We are right on the lake with beach access to enter. Water and electric hook ups at all spots with a central dumping station.
We had a great site on the bluff overlooking the lake. It was close to the restroom that was very clean and convenient.
called on June 27th to reserve a cabin for 6, Saturday the 2nd- 4th, At first was told they had no cabins available about 15 min after I made the call John the owner calls me back to tell me they had a cabin that was a 2 room available for theses dates and it was 100 per night and would sleep 6. I said we would like to reserve it. After hanging up called to inform my husband that we got a cabin then remember that I forgot to see if dogs were allowed, so I had to call back to make sure cause I can’t leave my fur babies. When I called it was a young girl that answered and said yes dogs were allowed and proceeded to talk about her 2 little puppies that were in the office with her. When packing and getting everything we needed together on Friday the day before we left we called to make sure the cabin had bedding and towels etc.. the young girl said yes. We get to sparrow resort on Saturday afternoon 2 young girls checked us in gave me a key pointed us in the direction of the cabin we pulled up to a cabin unloading all our stuff and unpacked was at this 2 bedroom cabin for approximately 2hours when John the owner came to this cabin told us we was at the wrong cabin I told them the key unlocked it. They said this was not cabin 2 and the people that reserved it would be up later so we gathered our things and moved to the cabin they said was ours that was next door. OH MY WAS WE LET DOWN. Mind you we have 2adult children myself and husband and 2 teenagers and 4 dogs they put us in a concrete prison that had missing curtains holes around the air conditioning window unit It was dirty holes in the walls. One king size bed a chair and a futon couch one room box. Bedding on bed only with a dirty comforter. For$100 a night not including the float trip. We were let down but determined to make the best of this we went to the store and bought bedding and towels and cleaning wipes. The next morning get up and noticed no one was in the 1st cabin still. So my daughter and I go to the office to get out float paid for and ask if we could get the bigger cabin since no one was in it told them I would pay more for it the little brown haired girl said yes then the other girl with a nose piercing said no it was booked and we should have had to pay a pet deposit of 15 a dog and we needed to pay this fee and was nasty with me. I said I wanted to by one raft and 2 tube rentals she keep saying and 60 pet deposit the brown haired girl rung up the float while the nasty teenager kept repeating and pet deposit the other girl stated stop worrying about the deposit and she kept saying it! The sign read tube float for 4 hours was only$20 and the raft was 25 per person for 4hours she charged us 30 x 6 people to float the 4 mile I said the 20 tube for 4 hours she nasty teen says that for just playing in the water😡 really the sign clearly says 4hour float only$20 and 25 for rafting over 4 people. I ask again about the other cabin the nasty girl said Chelsea and her 2 daughters were staying in it. Really because Chelsea and John the owner were the ones that came to the cabin the day before and Chelsea said she was the cleaning lady and John was the owner. Always we paid our pet deposit and float trip and tried to make the best of this regardless i a grown woman not to be argumentative with a child. This morning comes and we can’t wait to leave we cleaned the crap out of our concrete box prison and went to to office to return our key and get my 60 dollar pet deposit back and the nasty little teen was by herself while we started recording the whole encounter since day prior I ask for my pet deposit she said it don’t work like that I said excuse me you say deposit that means I get my deposit back if no damage was done. John came in and said what do we want he said you want your deposit here thank for staying and goodbye🤯wow what service. The best part the large cabin stayed vacant the entire time. The teenager that was running John’s business will be his downfall she don’t know how to treat people VERY DISRESPECTFUL!!! Will never be back!!
Stayed here overnight when passing through OK, this KOA was fairly easy to access off the interstate, it was well shaded.
People; very friendly Location; just off 40 Baths; clean Showers; very clean campsite; very nice. Shady pleasant. Green grass. Wonderful campground
We’ve stayed here multiple times and love it. Beautiful place. Some sites are a little tricky backing into with 29’ trailer though.
We camped in a tent at site 55 of Brooken Cove. It's an RV site but I'm not sure how you would fit an RV into the space without blocking the entryway, which is shared between this site and the adjacent site, 54. It has electricity and a water spigot that is shared with the adjacent site. It's right by the lake and has a few trees, along with a fire ring and table. There were few people when we went and it was nice and quiet for the most part, save for an obnoxious late night boater.
