"Very easy to get to from Oklahoma City."
"There are three main campground parks around the lake. Spring Creek and Scissortail Parks are off 15th. Central Park is off the 2nd Street entrance."

"We stayed over Labor Day weekend and the park was mostly full. It’s right off a major interstate and easy to get to."
"Plenty of spaces with full hookups, cable/wifi, but spaces are close together. No fire ring. We asked to change our site and they accommodated us. Friendly staff with small store."
"The location is good for access to Oklahoma City attractions. It is right off the interstate so the usual highway noise but not terrible. Free coffee and muffins every morning."
"Such an inspirational space and amazing hosts. A sacred spot in Oklahoma City worth of meditation and communion with nature- priceless."

GuideEnjoying it, end April, cool weather. Sites spacious & trees nearby. Only a few RVs ‘n me. No tents. My neighbors from Oklahoma City saw it’s booked for weekend. Locals love it. Nice easy short hikes. Bathrooms a bit outdated but work. One has a super old hand drier (works!) from , my guess by looks, 50+ years!
ScoutThis campground offers lots of sites with water views. There is a swimming beach and boat ramp as well as a dock to fish off. Very easy to get to from Oklahoma City.
LegendWe had a great stay in Lake Thunderbird State Park near Norman Oklahoma. The park has 11 campground areas situated around the 6000 acre centerpiece lake with many tent, RV sites and some of those have full hook up; our choice was the Little Ax campground on the southern end just off Oklahoma 9. In addition to water activities the park offers hunting, horse rental and boarding, equestrian trails, hiking, mountain biking, nature trails, a nature center, and an archery range. Our lakefront site#37 was nice and shaded with a gentle lake breeze offering a concrete pad, water, 30/15 amp electric, concrete table, lantern holder, fire ring and grill at site. The campground has an entry station, camp host, picnic shelters, playground, bathhouse and laundry, beach area, common fire pit, Verizon 4 bars, dump station, trash receptacles, interior roads are paved, with many sites waterfront. RV sites are close quarters. Tent sites are amazing...pads, concrete table, fire ring, grill, water spigot dispersed, waterfront sites. The town of Norman has all the amenities: shopping, dining, groceries, fuel and yes, Walmart. The area is home to local wineries and breweries and also the hometown to actor James Garner. WARNING: Oklahoma State Parks charge a daily parking fee per vehicle of$10 in addition to the camping fee and they enforce it...just saying from experience...read the information carefully! 13101 Alameda Dr, Norman, OK 73026 GPS- 35.234940,-97.219224 for the Little Ax Campground.
RangerWe were in Site# 66. We had Full hook- up with a paved pull-through.
We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep.
The site was easy to level. Our site was not shaded with limited trees. In eight years of RV-ing, we’ve never had such little space between us and our neighbors. We literally walk out our door into their sewer. (See pictures) My husband can touch both RVs with his arms outstretched.
The lot did not come with a concrete patio, picnic table, or a fire ring. Some lots had a picnic table. We did not request one since we’d be eating at our neighbor’s sewer.
It is an easy access to the campground from highway -(right off the highway).
There is free WiFi. They offer Cable TV and there are many local channels).
They do not sell wood here.
They do not provide garbage service at your site but there are many barrel drum trash cans that can be accessed.
You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They do not provide golf cart rentals. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.
They do have a Swimming pool (not heated & freezing). They have a fishing Lake on property (it is hidden behind some cabins so you could stay here & never know the lake is here). There are two Buffalo that are owned by the owners of the restaurant and trading post above the KOA (who also own the KOA).
There is a Playground and jumping pad for kids. They have a basic general store.
There is not a snack bar/restaurant on site but there is a restaurant at the top of the hill.
The streets are paved and good for riding bikes. There is not really anywhere to ride bikes outside of campground.
This is a RV park but also have many cabins for rent and tent areas.
They have 2 shower houses. The shower house has the typical stalls. These are kept very clean.
There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility. You’ll need to get change in the main office while they are open (no change machine). There are approximately 6 washers and 6 dryers. It is approximately $2 to wash and $2 to dry a load.
They have a fenced in dog park.
Bugs were an issue and bug spray was definitely needed.
There were no trails to hike in the campground.
We’ve noticed that the casinos nearby mainly offer slot machines only (very few have live tables (craps, roulette, blackjack,etc.).
RangerMy husband and I rented a little cabin for an anniversary getaway. Cabin was clean, and grounds were well kept. We called for fresh bedding, and they were happy to help. The bed was large and comfy, and pillows were soft. There is a t.v., kitchenette, and bathroom with shower. We went in January, so there were no crowds.
LegendThere are three main campground parks around the lake. Spring Creek and Scissortail Parks are off 15th. Central Park is off the 2nd Street entrance.
Spring Creek and Scissortail were both full, so we ended up at the Spring Creek Park.
In Spring Creek, there is primitive camping in Bobcat Campground and King Snake Campground. We stayed in the Cottonwood Campground which had a mix of camping types.
We stayed in an RTT, so all of the spots were easy access for us, but I saw some big rigs and setups with boats, so it looked like it was easy to park for most anyone.
The spaces were ample sized and most all of them had enough trees surrounding them to offer decent privacy. They all had had fire pits, grills and picnic tables. They all looked pretty level.
Restrooms and showers were passable, but not much better than that.
The campground was pretty full, but pretty quiet. No problems with noise.
Lots of trash cans around, but they were all full or overflowing. Most of the campsites had some lingering trash around. Definitely could have been cleaner.
My son had a ball and this place isn't far from home, so we will probably checkout the other campgrounds on 15th the next time we are there.
In addition to easy setup and getting around, the other thing that makes this great for new campers is that the city of Edmond is just a few miles away for a full list of stores and restaurants. Or head east on 2nd (66) and go to Pop's in Arcadia for a burger and a selection of over 500 sodas.
And finally, lots of Oklahoma hospitality in case you do have problems or need a hand.
RangerThis is a very well maintained RV park. I think the pictures speak for them selves.
Located just minutes from Lake McMurtry, Lake Carl Blackwell, Karsten Creek Golf Course, Oklahoma State University, and all the rest that Stillwater has to offer, Cedar Crest is situated on 40 acres in a natural setting and offers modern amenities. Despite our country setting, we are easily accessible by paved roads.
TravelerDon’t miss this one... it’s special. The owner is a professional artist and it shows. Such an inspirational space and amazing hosts. A sacred spot in Oklahoma City worth of meditation and communion with nature- priceless. This will forever be my home away from home when traveling in this area. Inspiring with all the essentials and luxuries of glamping. Highly recommended!

Camping cabins near Oklahoma City offer shelter from Oklahoma's variable climate that can range from freezing winters to hot, humid summers. The region sits in the Central Great Plains at an elevation between 1,100 and 1,400 feet above sea level. Many cabin sites in the area feature electrical hookups that help visitors manage temperature extremes during their stay.
Water activities at Arcadia Lake: Arcadia Lake provides camping near water recreation within 30 minutes of downtown Oklahoma City. "We have taken our family to Arcadia many times to camp. While it's close to the city, it feels far away. Lake activities and hiking are available," notes Angela H. The lake offers fishing, swimming and boating options throughout the camping season.
Buffalo viewing at El Reno: El Reno West KOA maintains two buffalo on the property, a unique feature for a campground. "They have two Buffalo that are owned by the owners of the restaurant and trading post above the KOA (who also own the KOA)," mentions Julia H. The buffalo enclosure allows campers to observe these iconic animals up close.
Canyon hiking and climbing: Approximately an hour west of Oklahoma City, canyon landscapes offer different terrain. Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park features sandstone bluffs perfect for hiking and technical climbing. "The box canyon is set for climbing or repelling, no matter what your experience level. I am a little old lady in my 60's and had the opportunity to climb one of the smaller bluff walls," shares Lyn B.
Storm shelters: Oklahoma's severe weather potential means storm shelters are an important amenity. "They are well lit, have a tornado shelter and are near a multitude of stores and restaurants," Elizabeth S. notes about Rockwell RV Park. Similarly, Julia H. mentions storm considerations at El Reno West KOA: "Bugs were an issue and bug spray was definitely needed."
Morning amenities: Several campgrounds offer morning refreshments for guests. "Free coffee and muffins every morning. My youngest did not miss a day," Bret N. says about Rockwell RV Park. Richard also mentions this amenity: "Free coffee and muffins every morning."
Clean facilities: Bathroom cleanliness ranks high in camper satisfaction. Lake Carl Blackwell receives praise for its maintenance. "Bathrooms were old but not too dirty. They were heated very well," Kelly G. observes. David D. agrees: "The amenities were very clean, some being very new. Multiple new dump stations in each area. Bathrooms were very clean."
Site spacing varies: Cabin and RV site spacing differs significantly between locations. "The spots were a good size to fit our 45' toyhauler with 2 vehicles (and put the back patio down). There are a fair bit of trees, so big rigs use caution pulling into spaces," Rachel P. shares about Oklahoma City East KOA.
Weather considerations: Oklahoma weather affects camping year-round. "We did an overnight stop here in May 2025. We booked a tent site for car camping but heavy rain made that area muddy so we upgraded to a cabin with half bath," Barkley K. explains about their stay at Oklahoma City East KOA.
Water quality concerns: Some locations have reported water quality issues. "Water was brown, but we have a Berkey filter, so it wasn't a problem for us. I wouldn't be happy if we didn't have the Berkey, and weren't still winterized. Use your inline filters here!" warns Tashi K. about Oklahoma City East KOA.
Playground access: Several campgrounds feature play areas for children. "Pool, pedal carts, jumping pillow, and a playground for the kids! Super friendly staff," Brittany J. mentions about El Reno West KOA. Rachel P. confirms this amenity at Oklahoma City East KOA: "Nice playground for the kids, pool was closed (opens Memorial Day to Labor Day), dog park is large and very well shaded."

Full of wildlife, rabbits, deer, squirrels and armadillos abound," Lyn B. describes at Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park.
Family-friendly cabin options: The OK Treehouse offers a unique elevated camping experience. "Eclectic Artwork. Right off Rt 66. Last minute booked on Airbnb," notes Jes P. about this distinctive accommodation option that appeals to families looking for unusual camping experiences.
Accessibility considerations: RV park layouts and accessibility vary throughout the Oklahoma City area. "If possible I recommend the spots in back. The full hook up spots up front are literally a parking lot. The spots are so close you are almost touching the RVs beside you," Kelly B. advises about El Reno West KOA.
Road noise: Highway proximity affects some camping experiences. "This KOA is directly off I-40 exit 108. It is a decent quick over night if you are passing through," Kelly B. notes. John T. adds: "This was a one night stop while on the road. The KOA is very clean but it is very noisy. Traffic is also louder than usual."
Seasonal considerations: Site conditions change with seasons. "The site was easy to level. Our site was not shaded with limited trees," Julia H. reports about El Reno West KOA. At other locations, Rowan B. notes: "Super friendly, right off the highway, clean and shady spots. It is still very hot so the shade is key!"
