Great Plains State Park Campground
Awesome State Park
Spent one night here. Pretty much right on the Tom Steed reservoir so fishing and boating is an option. Space was fairly level and had both electric and water. $25 per night. They do give a small senior discount. Standard park restrooms and showers. All the sites had picnic tables and firings. Great hiking trails nearby also. We were there on a weekend and it was pretty full.

Pecan Grove RV Resort
Nice clean RV Park
The only reason I didn’t give this park five stars is it it’s right next to the interstate so there was quite a bit of freeway noise. Other than that the park is very well kept and maintained. The camp hosts were super nice. The bathrooms and showers were awesome. Full hook ups for a back in site for $40 per night. For being a RV park, the spaces were napart from each other. not right on top of each other like some parks are. This park also looks to have several full-time or seasonal residents.

Breath of air
It's a good little spot on the edge of town to go eat lunch, do some thinking, or fish for fun. Around the holidays it lights up and is just an all around good place to go for free

Ok, not alot of sites, little trash in area. Not well kept
Not a terrible mini spots of quality and there are permits involved which prices have changed since I went the water level is not as high as it was and there is a lack of proper upkeep

Beautiful view
Wonderful spot. We stayed for 3 nights, view of Mount Scott was amazing. Had our 2 golden retrievers with us and they loved the lake. Lots of fun! Be sure to take a drive out mount scott and check out the parallel forest!

Nice
Our April stay was great, used it as a base camp for the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge.
Our site was a pull thru with FHU. This time of year, the campground was maybe 33% full. Staff was great, the grounds are clean. Very windy at times, probably normal for the area. I'd stay again.

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 passSecurity: 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.- Kristi D.Legend
Doris Campground
Lovely spot
Great spot to see some wild life and check out the Witicha mountains.

Quartz Mountain State Park Campground
Back in business! Great State Park!
This park was turned back over to the state in 2020 and is exactly how I remembered it from the 80’s. Tucked down in southwest Oklahoma in the Wichita Mountains, it’s a small park but has LOTS of options. There are RV and tent Campgrounds, cabins, a very modern lodge with 96 rooms, group pavilions, and a dormitory. There’s a full restaurant, ORV trails, hiking trails, a river and a lake. Something for everyone.
We stayed in the Mountain View campground which has concrete pads and didn’t have to level our rig at all. Electric and water and steps to the flush bathroom that has a shower in it. It backs up to the lake berm and has a view of one of the mountains. Not much cover but we didn’t need it as it was cloudy during our stay. LOTS of stickers. Beware especially if you have long haired dogs.

Doris Campground
Absolutely beautiful!
Doris is in the middle of Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge, there is zero cell phone service but we got our Starlink to work perfectly. We stayed in 40c which had no hookups but was an enormous site with lots of privacy. Fairly level site, concrete table, huge fire pit and grill. Spots are very well maintained and this site backs up to Lake Quanah Parker. Little Baldy trail can be hiked directly from the campground. New shower and bathroom house.
100% will be back. Fantastic educational visitors center. You MUST drive up Mt Scott but it’s scary. Wonderful short hikes.
Free roaming bison, longhorns, wild Turkey, etc.

Kiowa Park II Marina
Didn't mow............
Spent 9/29-10/1 at Kiowa II campground. The RV parking pads are paved and were level. The sites are spacious. Pull-through and back-in sites are available. Pull-through sites are for shorter RVs as they are a tightly curved.
The biggest drawback is that they didn't mow....even for reserved locations!!! The grass seed heads were no less than knee high. This caused us to have to park our RV at an angle on the pad to get out of the grass getting caught in our door.
Additionally, I walked to the bathroom at the swim beach and was very disappointed and amazed at the thick mature growth of sand burr sticker plants allowed along the beach. There was a strip about 4-8' wide and approximately 40-60' long at the point the beach meets the grass. The sand burr plants were also growing throughout the grass area. I WOULD NOT STAY AT THIS CAMPGROUND IF I HAD RESERVED A SPOT THERE. There appears to be no grass management at all in this area where children and adults generally would want to go barefoot. Wish I had taken a pic... :(
THEN, in different bathroom at the Kiowa II campground, I found a snake skin wrapped around the bottom of a toilet!!! This is in a bathroom with a closed door. There was another snake skin in the waste basket between the sinks. The light was also out in the ladies side of the bathroom.

Kiowa Park Campground
Lights out at night !
I stopped in on the 23rd of September, 92 degrees some wind, lady at check in extremely friendly and helpful. Sites are spaced about 100 ft apart, lots of privacy. Very good place to spend a few days. BUT, lights out at night, bugs by the millions. I didn’t fish but a few were, didn’t see much results , too hot! Grounds are very clean and well kept, a Ranger lives on sight. Play ground for the kids.

Kyle L.ScoutKiowa Park Campground
Awesome place
I stayed here September 4th. Literally on labor day. It's a large campground with lots of space between most sites. It was completely silent only a handful of campers spaced way apart. Lots of spots on the water with easy access to the water. It's beautifully maintained even the bathrooms are clean. No trash this place is spotless and beautiful and quiet.
I was just going to stay a night but I honestly might stay the full 14 days. I basically have a private beach. Only problem is it's seasonal. Also I have Virizon. I had 4 bars worked fine.

Fred S.LegendDoris Campground
Good Experience in Campervan
Camped in site 36, loop C, mid-May. Large campsite; lots of trees. Short path behind site leafs to Quanah Parker Lake. No connections. Water pump nearby; water was good quality. Restroom/shower house located at beginning of loop. Other restrooms were closed for renovation. The restroom/shower house is old & needs updating. Campsite was clean. Firewood available near campground entrance. Excellent hiking opportunities nearby. Separation between sites in this loop is good but little privacy. Campground host was friendly & helpful. Enjoyed staying in this old campground & exploring the refuge. Little to no AT&T and T-Mobile service.

Camp Doris
Quaint Campground Nestled in the Mountains
Doris Campground is a cool little campground nestled in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. There are multiple areas to camp at Doris. The easiest way to reserve a site is to goto Recreation.gov and book online (This may be the only way, a lot about the booking process has changed in the last few years) There are two main campground areas with decently spaced but also high site density just past the information hut / entrance to the campground. A is immediately on the right after the entrance, it's a non electric loop and I believe (C?) is on the left just after the A loop with a loop of electric sites. There are also primitive campsites for tents further down the road and lake sites, as well as some more isolated sites spread throughout the campground and group camping areas. There are quite a few trees in the campground, but you can also see the sky fairly well. There are restroom buildings scattered throughout the campground and several shower areas. The campsites are almost all back in if you have a rig. There is zero cell phone reception, even with a booster. Many of the rig campsites have some sort of bench / picnic table and fire rings. There is a ton of wildlife in the area, and it is very peaceful.

Stunning Views
We did not stay here but it looks to be a few more sites than the one across the lake.
This trail has absolutely amazing views and worth the stop.
I’m glad we stopped before leaving the area.
