    Lake Lawtonka East Campground

    Lakeside Campsite

    Plentiful campsites with several spots right on the lake! Fairly close rather and no way to book ahead but we definitely enjoyed the location!!

    Great Plains State Park Dispersed Campsite

    Peaceful and Beautiful

    The road in starts as a paved/dirt road. Turn left before the primitive camping sign and follow the dirt road to the lake. The road is very rough, but we managed in our VW Atlas. Beautiful view of the mountain and lake. Very quiet and peaceful, and no other visitors.

    Great Plains State Park Campground

    Beautiful place

    We had an awesome tent site, no 17. Not far from the boat ramp or restrooms

    Gar were spawning while we were there, which was entertaining. Geese abound. We saw several geese with their babies in the water and right nest to our site.

    Snakes gliding thru the water. Woke up 1 morning to a dead snake right in front of my chair.

    Fireflies!

    Peaceful, green, perfect

    Great Plains State Park Dispersed Campsite

    Beautiful area

    We spent a night here and it was beautiful. I loved the challenge to get to the spot. Coordinates will get you close to your turn but you have to watch for the sigh (first pic), from there just use your Maps to navigate which route you want to take. Roads have deep rust but worth it when you find the perfect spot. Water side location. No fire ring but wasn't needed. Area was clean and flat.

    Time Out RV Park

    Wonderful place to stay

    The manager of this spot is the most friendly woman I’ve ever met. And the nicest. Not just her but some of the other people who live here full-time are so willing to help you. It does have a little bit of road noise, but that doesn’t bother me. I would definitely stay here again.

    Quartz Mountain State Park Campground

    Stunning

    A well maintained park lots of shaded sites, picnic tables are the best. Views of the mountain are great. Bathhouse and toilets are new in most sites.

    Great Plains State Park Dispersed Campsite

    Oklahoma Wildlife Management Area

    This location is an Oklahoma Wildlife Management Area, not Great Plains State Park. These coordinates get you close to the road where the WMA begins. Look for the OK WMA sign and turn. The road gets rough and has low hanging limbs that will hit tall vehicles. You can get close to the Tom Steed Reservoir with some decent views. Quiet and secluded.

    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.
