Best Equestrian Camping near Muskogee, OK

39 Reviews

No horse-friendly campgrounds exist in the Muskogee area based on the provided data. None of the campgrounds listed feature horse corrals, which would be essential for equestrian camping. Taylor Ferry, Chicken Creek, Sallisaw-Fort Smith West KOA, Little Turtle RV & Storage, Claremore Expo RV Park, Tulsa NE-Will Rogers Downs KOA, Peavine Hollow, and Round Hollow Public Access Areas all explicitly lack horse corrals according to their features lists. Campers seeking equestrian facilities would need to travel beyond the Muskogee vicinity.

The absence of horse-specific amenities means equestrians must look elsewhere for appropriate accommodations. While several campgrounds offer RV and tent camping with water and electric hookups, they lack the infrastructure needed for horses such as corrals, stalls, wash racks, or dedicated trailer parking. Campgrounds like Taylor Ferry and Chicken Creek provide water access and boat ramps, with reviews noting good fishing opportunities and lake views, but these amenities serve general campers rather than equestrians. Trail riders would need to research state parks or private equestrian facilities further from the immediate Muskogee area for appropriate horse camping options.

    Claremore Expo RV Park

    In town Rv lot

    I wouldn’t say this is camping. The people that usually stay here are in town for events at the Expo or driving thru. There is a lot to do nearby. TWithin walking distance there’s the expo center (you can go in and pet horses) and a Rec center with a pool. You can go to Will Rogers Museum, JM Davis fun museum, RSU has a nice little hiking trail as does the Lake.

    Tulsa NE-Will Rogers Downs KOA

    Nice clean campground

    Spent one night at this campground. Grounds were clean, restrooms and showers were also clean. The check in office was inviting and pleasing. We didn’t use the laundry facility while we were there, but they are available should the need arise. Bathrooms were locked and secure and passcode was required to enter. Passcode was provided upon check in. Our site was a pull through level gravel pad with full hookups. The off leash dog park was a small fenced in area with a couple of benches. Horse track and casino were well within walking distance from the camp sites. Quiet location, just off the highway. Highway could not be heard from inside our camper.

    Love the Lake

    All campsites are equipped with electric hookups, and the group shelters have electricity, too.

    Lake Tenkiller is an amazing location to scuba dive.  It's waters are clear and cool from a distance of 8 to 28 feet.  A diver will have the opportunity to investigate a sunken airplane fuselage, school bus, helicopter and two boats.  In some areas of the lake divers can see the remains of homesteads.  The underwater terrain ranges from gently sloping hills to rocky cliffs.  The water ranges in depth up to 165 feet.

    Tenkiller Ferry Lake is often referred to as "Oklahoma's clear water paradise." The 12,500 acre lake is fed by the Illinois River and the Baron Fork . It is nestled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains in the northeastern part of the state. This area, known as Green Country, is surrounded by dense oak-hickory forests, tall bluffs, and rolling hills. The lake has 130 miles of shoreline with plenty of wildlife such as deer and turkey. It serves as one of the flyways of migratory birds, including bald eagles, common loons, and white pelicans.

    Water skiing, boating, fishing, hiking, and swimming and even sailing.  Scuba divers enjoy the lake's high visibility and the beautiful clear waters.  Fish for black bass, white bass, striped bass, crappie and catfish. The trout stream below the dam is one of only two year-round trout fisheries in Oklahoma, and is regularly stocked with rainbow trout. Hunting is also permitted in parts of the lake area, in accordance with federal and state laws.

    Directions:  From Gore, Oklahoma, go 17.5 miles northeast on Highway 100, take the turn left and go 1.5 miles northwest on the paved access road. Follow signs into the campground.

    Check-out time: 3:00 pm. Check-in time: 6:00 pm. Quiet hours: 10:00 pm- 6:00 am.

    Entrance gate will be closed during this time.

    Don't Move Firewood: Protect your forests from tree-killing pests by buying your firewood locally and burning it on-site. 

    Group shelters are for day use only. Fireworks are prohibited. Fishing and hunting are regulated by federal and state laws.

    Sallisaw-Fort Smith West KOA

    First KOA experience!

    We didn't know what to expect. This place has absolutely everything you could need. Full Hookups, level sites (mostly gravel but level), shop with souvenirs and RV gadgets. The office also has a gameroom, pantry, and propane. We didn't get to use the playground area this visit as pool and hot tub were closed for the year. They also have normal cabin rental and tiny home rentals that were perfectly positioned around campground and fishing pond. My only complaint would be that the sites are really compact. Plenty of room for your RV but so close that you can hear and smell your neighbors. Nearby Walmart and restaurants were handy.

    Sallisaw-Fort Smith West KOA

    Many improvements since last time

    This was our second stop at the KOA in Fort Smith AR. They have many improvements since out last stay. The campground is convenient to I-40. It’s far enough away to not have traffic noise. The sites are level, there is a pool, Propane, fishing pond, and camp store. Also hiking trails. Also some tent sites. There is a whole new section for Class A and large 5th wheel campers now. The are located behind a highway department facility, and last visit the smell of the treated power line poles was overwhelming. No problem this time. This is one of the few campgrounds I’ve been to that have a storm shelter!

    Taylor Ferry

    Peaceful & beautiful

    We stayed here for two weeks we stayed on the north end which has a private shower house. We caught some catfish right off the rock peer. It is close to Hwy 51 but you really can’t tell. Gate keepers were wonderful and very helpful I saw some old oyster mushrooms all over the place possibly some lions mane 💓 I had a great time. Bait and a Dollar General were right down the road. The only thing is we were told that the lake would be low for the next two years for reconstruction of the dam. Because of the low water you can walk very far into the water from where we we’re staying. The north side we were on will close for the winter soon. I do advise having a water filter system on your rig we Will totally be returning anytime of year because this COE stays open all year. Two dump stations!

    Tulsa NE-Will Rogers Downs KOA

    Tulsa, OK

    This place is a casino and a dog track. Very busy place- the office called us to get an idea on our ETA. Told us where to park to get our paperwork. It’s a bit confusing coming in but we hooked up with someone on a golf cart who took us right to our site. Nice and long for our 40’ motorhome and truck. Didn’t check out any of the amenities. Lots of restaurants close by.

    Taylor Ferry

    Great campground

    Super friendly hosts, beautiful view. The water at our site was broken so we shared with another site (60’). The campground was clean. We could hear the noise from the highway across the lake.
