"I grew up in Oologah and spent many many nights camping here."
"Great location with lots of shade. Also, very close to the playground. Easy spot to back-in and is very level. Only downside is that you must be back in the park by 10:00 PM."

"General: Blue Creek is one of four campgrounds operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers on Oologah Lake (the others are Spencer Creek, Red Bud, and Hawthorn Bluff)."
"We camped in a spot near the water. The lake was beautiful at sunset. The bathroom was clean, our spot had a covered picnic table, grill and fire ring."
"This is a great location for RVers that want the conveniences and/or are wanting to see the local area."
"It’s near a wooded area. The first 2 are out in the open, by the roads, do a cartwheel and you are in the next camping spot... You can put a boat in the river on this side or kayak up and down."
"Took my Uncle with us and headed out to Oologha Lake from Claremore. What a camp area!! Threw a line in and I caught a 12 pound Drum! I was 22 and so proud of that fish!!"
$16 - $50 / night
"There are sites on top of ridge overlooking Oolagah Lake. Site 10 is an accessible site. When you back in you have a nice view of lake from front window and living area of RV."
"It’s a great little lake for fishing, boating, kayaking, hiking and swimming. The Rv sites are close together but the whole area is wooded which makes for some great shade."
"I grew up in Oologah and frequented the birthplace often. There’s lots of animals to pet and lots of history to learn."

"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."
"Lots of restaurants close by."
ScoutIt had a smell to it the reservation making was not understood so we were made to leave after being there all day in the rain we really just found a spot and set up thinking they'd come get the money there's also free camping I believe over in the next section yes there segregated lol from poor to rich folk go figure the guy who took care of the place was super kind explained things to me and kept things cool while I did what I had to do to leave I like the place over all stand up guy
GuideWe loved our stay here. Everyone was so kind and respectful. The campground host and his dog were excellent and so helpful! We enjoyed swimming and taking a breather from our roadtrip. Quite peaceful and room to explore!
TravelerIt’s an ok campground. It looks like it hasn’t been mowed at all this year. Some of the sites would be hard to get to with all the tall grass. I camped on the back part and it was easy enough to get to. The toilets are just OK. One has the water level pretty high so I wouldn’t use that but the other one would be OK. I’m here in July and nobody else is here.
ScoutWas camping here for a horse fair and loved being able to walk to the barns and festival grounds. Laundry, showers, bathrooms on-site and security code locked. It's got electric, sewer, and trash. It's not really a destination if your looking for a camping experience around the fire pit and fishing. It's concrete, some grass and trees and is what it's meant for, a place to stay overnight and do your business at the fair grounds.
TravelerWe had a great time camping here! It was beautiful and clean. The bathrooms and showers were always clean and fresh. The only downside is that they don’t have water hookups at the sites. You can connect your hose to the nearest spigot but you better hope it’s long enough. The water was really high so fishing was so so. The dam is right across the road pretty much and the recreation area is nice. A couple trails with a few options.
RangerThis park offers full hookup sites and has many hiking trails. In October, they do trick or treating every weekend - which is fun!
RangerNice and close to skiatook lake. The bathrooms had spiderwebs that could have been cleaned out a bit better. Campsite had scorpions at night so be prepared for that 🦂.
ScoutThe campground itself has everything we could ask for with showers and bathrooms and a great spot on the water. However, our site, No. 6, is right on the road and people drive ATVs up and down the road at all hours of the night. Like, for real, ALL HOURS. They were doing it at 3am. We would love this campground if it were anywhere else away from this road.
ScoutWe called ahead and clearly explained we needed a full hookup site to test out our motorhome before a major trip. We were also told they had a playground and asked to be placed as close to it as possible. We confirmed that checkout was at 11 AM and were told if we needed a late checkout, it would be an additional$20.
When we arrived, we were one of the only guests there, yet they still insisted on charging a late checkout fee. Even worse— the site they gave us had only 30 amp electric hookup— no water, no sewage hookup— despite what we were promised over the phone. The“playground” was a complete joke: no swings, no slides— just a small metal structure with a few steps. Nothing like what is pictured or advertised. When we asked for a refund because the site was not what we were promised, the older woman at the front desk laughed and said,“It’s raining, the kids can’t play anyway,” and refused to refund us.
She offered a“credit toward a future stay,” which we obviously declined. There are only THREE sites in the entire park with full hookups, and they are right at the front gate next to the train tracks. As a military family(my husband is a disabled combat vet), it’s also worth noting they do not offer any military discount. Between the poor service, false advertising, and complete lack of accommodations, this place is wildly overpriced and absolutely not worth the three-hour drive we made to get there.
0/10 recommend. Save your money and go somewhere else. We left and stayed down the road by Pier 51 instead— a much better experience.
