Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Oklahoma City, OK

Arcadia Lake and Twin Fountains RV Park provide pet-friendly camping options across various accommodation types including tents, RVs, cabins, and glamping. Both campgrounds maintain clean facilities with well-maintained grass areas for pets to exercise and handle their business. Twin Fountains features paved roads and level sites with full hookups, while enforcing standard leash requirements throughout the property. The park includes designated pet areas and two dog runs—one main run that is longer but narrow, and a second smaller enclosed area. Pets are welcome at all campsites, though some restrictions apply in common areas. Roadrunner RV Park similarly allows pets with concrete pads and grassy spaces between sites, creating comfortable environments for dogs to stretch their legs during camping stays. Some campgrounds charge nominal pet fees while others include pets at no additional cost.

Oklahoma City area campgrounds offer convenient access to walking paths and pet exercise opportunities. Twin Fountains provides sidewalk-style walking trails across from the entrance, giving pets additional room to explore beyond the designated dog runs. Arcadia Lake's pathways connect to longer hiking trails suitable for leashed dogs. Most parks maintain pet waste stations throughout the grounds, though campers should always carry their own bags as backup. Several campgrounds enforce quiet hours that apply to barking dogs, particularly in more densely packed RV sites where neighbors are in close proximity. The concrete pads at Roadrunner provide clean surfaces for pet gear during rainy weather. Local veterinary services are available within short driving distance of most campgrounds, with the closest emergency animal hospitals located near downtown Oklahoma City, approximately 3-10 miles from various camping locations.

    Arcadia Lake

    Great proximity to Oklahoma City

    This 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.

    Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park

    Nice & not crowded!

    Enjoying 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 Bathrooms a bit outdated but work.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!

    Mustang Run RV Park

    Great for an overnight stay

    Mustang run isn’t to far from Oklahoma City off I-40 and is locally owned. Also close to State fair. It is at the end of a lane next to a hotel. You can hear lots of traffic from the interstate. It has 2 dog runs,storm shelters,pool,playground, laundry, and nice clubhouse. So everything you might need. There are pull through sites and back in. The sites are concrete so level. They are full hook ups with cable and wi-fi. There are no tent sites here. The nightly rate is $49 but they do except Good Sam discount. They also have weekly and monthly rates.

    Little Sandy Campground — Lake Thunderbird State Park

    Something from a horror movie

    Avid tent camper here, camped from California to South Carolina. Wanted to spend the weekend close to home. And honestly just embarrassed to be from Oklahoma City with the way Thunderbird was. Stayed at Little Sandy 17. First every campsite we reserved had people on them so we had to kick people off multiple sites so we could set up. The bathrooms were a disgrace. Even after being “cleaned”. Will never go back to this place.

    Mustang Run RV Park

    Excellent RV Park

    This RV Park is very very nice. It sits right beside the highway, so there is quite a bit of traffic noise, but other than that, This RV park is top of the line. I generally prefer a more rural setting, but we came to OKC to visit friends and found this gem. The parking spaces are wide and easy to get in and out of. Of course full hook ups with 50 amp service. There was cable TV, with lots of channels (a luxury we have not experienced on our three month journey). The cell service was good here (AT&T), and the park wifi worked better here than any other place we’ve stayed. It is Springtime here in Oklahoma City, so that means tornado season. Not my favorite thing - torrential rains, hail, wind, thunder, lightening, and every bodies favorite - tornadoes! We stayed here for a week, and nearly every night we had buckets of rain. We were glued to the news channels a couple of nights in fear of golfball sized hail, or worse - the dreaded tornado! This Was V park has 4 or 5 underground shelters, which is somewhat of a comfort. The dog park here is good. They have trash pick up service everyday- you just put your bag out by your camper and they come pick it up. While here, we went to the Bombing Memorial. I would definitely come back - just not in the Spring!

    Central State Park Campground

    Cotopaxi Questival Overnighter

    Stay with some friends here for a festival in Oklahoma City. The campground was easy to find and very close to Oklahoma City but it was dirty and the fire in the fire pit was still going from the people that have been there the night before.
