We stayed in the north end of the Choctaw Campground, nearest the converted cabin and heated showerhouse. All facilities (water, toilets, info) were open and working. On arrival we booked a spot and had no issues with internet to do so. Rangers came through daily, but no sign of camp host over the Thanksgiving weekend. We were the only tent visitors until our last night when two additional campers arrived. The trails were great aside from some glass that appeared to wash in a long the lower nature trail, which was a concern for our dog so we went to take the fitness trail back. The sunset view from south of the lodge was worth the wait. Nature Center staff were more helpful than the info center, on top of a super educational and fun tour they held even in the chilly wind. Cons - There seemed to be less parking than spots, waterside spots definitely had signs of being washed out this season around the picnic tables, and overall it was hard to spot some numbers on spots. Spots were mostly crowded, would not come to this site in a peak season.
Until the state replaces these lecherous leprechauns who creep around and undress you with their eyes leering with their rotted teeth and unwashed bodies, I won't be back. The place is managed by drug addicts. This place is local to me and I went there often till 2023 when these folks took over. You'll probably find missing children in their closet. Seriously, these folks need to go. This was my favorite park, went for years but I won't go back till I know they are gone. I never felt afraid solo camping anywhere till I solo camped here after they took over. There's not enough locks on your camper door to sleep with them around. State of Oklahoma - DO BETTER. I spent a lot of money there but I won't spend one red cent til these folks are gone.
Very pretty and quiet campground. Spots spaced nicely apart, new comfort stations, dump station, playground, group spots, and overall just really enjoyable place to stay.
Water turns off to sites on Nov 1 but restrooms and showers are still on.
Great stargazing on a clear night.
What an AMAZING campground. From the office personnel, to the cleanliness of the sites, to the sheer beauty of them as well. 12/10 and would absolutely visit again!
I can see the stars and the moon while hearing deer run through the woods, birds splashing in the water and coyotes howling. 12 miles/ 20 minutes to town for gas, groceries, laundry, etc. Minimal traffic mid -January, mostly boats and fishermen. Vault toilet is clean and water spigots are available and turned on. $10/night
First time here, absolutely love it! The roads look like they've recently been blacktopped. Very easy to get to. Lots of shade, but there's sun if you want it. Beautiful lake view from my site. Clean vault toilet. No water available anywhere tho, which lowered my review to 4. No electric or dump station, so come prepared.
Beautiful view, quiet, but annoying folks. There is one site, B69, that someone needs to have the ability and the common sense to leave it as part of the day use area. There is a man-made path directly behind where a camper/rv parks that leads down to the shore/lake, that is heavily used by those who fish. In other words, they can and will, invade upon your site, your privacy, your solitude, all day, every day, to use this path to go fishing. So, even though the site is occupied by a PAYING camper, the hosts favor those free, day use fishermen, to allow them access to the lake for their pleasure. You, the paying camper, your pleasure does not matter. Mind you, this is NOT the only way down to the lake, just most convenient. There is no respect, common courtesy or consideration towards the camper who has PAID for the site, at all. The hosts may offer to move you, but if a person picks a specific site, why should they have to move to a different site? During the open season, find a different path to get to the lake!
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. They park managers will lock the gate and you either have to walk to your campsite or if you leave a car at the gate you can drive your secondary car while leaving your primary car outside the main gate. We were in town for a baseball tournament. Otherwise we would’ve been back in plenty of time.
We had a great site on the bluff overlooking the lake. It was close to the restroom that was very clean and convenient.
Beautiful old, but refurbished campground in Northeast Oklahoma, built by the CCC! Our last night of a 16-day trip is quietly coming to a close. We made reservations on-line (that's another story!), and when we got there around 8 p.m., the RV campground was about 1/3 full. There are only electric hookups and community water is scattered through the campground. There are tent cabins to rent, and separate tent camping area, also where the overlook is, although it was overgrown and not easy to see the view! There are newish shower and toilet buildings scattered around and my hubs said they were nice and clean... shower water warm only. There is a swimming pool opening early June and nice walking trails. Lots of history if you go that route!
This was our first time camping with our toddler and it was was perfect! There was plenty of woods to get fallen firewood, well maintained trails, HEATED super clean bathrooms(it was around 45 degrees at night when we went so this was a welcome sight) showers, and also a park ranger would drive by every couple of hours so I felt very safe. We will definitely stay here again.
Great trails, clean, HEATED bathrooms and showers
We got here and there were tons of signs saying reservations required. I quickly made one online and we grabbed a map to find our way. Long story short — 15 mins later we realized that Sequoyah BAY state park is different from just Sequoyah State Park. Not sure why they put both campgrounds on the same map but don’t make this mistake! The other campground was only 20 min away though.
I stopped here overnight on a work trip. The spots are nice and so is the area. I was here in winter and everything is open. My only issue is that I stayed here so I could use the bathhouse. But the showers here are the kind that you have to push every 15 seconds to keep on and never really get warm although technically the water is heated. Pushing the button with painful hands is also difficult. So I skipped the shower. The bathrooms were clean.
The sites are nice, fairly roomy. Sites and patio after paved, but I had to pull the camper up on to levelers. I was surprised to find no walking trails.
Swimming, basketball court, baseball field, marina, showers, all within a HUGE campground. It is November 30th and we are literally the only people in five loops of this campground.
Quite nice visit great view
This has a pool, river for fishing and swimming and several great campgrounds.
Beautiful lakeside spot with a good bit of open space. Our site last night was not shaded but many of them are. Signs say you can stay up to 14 days and the fee is currently free! There was some road construction in the campground in the morning but nothing too loud or serious.
The rangers were always available to help us during the 4July weekend with bug sprays and other essentials.
Vibe: Classic quiet Army Corp park. Almost all RVs. Ours was the only tent.
Cleanliness: Above average
Facilities: Average
General spots: Good size, good spacing, not private, some back up to lake, but there is a sizable drop off to lake level.
Our site: Don’t remember the number, but it backed up to the lake.
Noise: Quiet. It was a mid-week stay during the school year.
Cell signal: Good/Verizon
Other: Close to dam and behind the dam appeared to be a popular fishing spot when water was being released.
We had a wonderful time camping here. The park is great and the RV campground shady with sites well spread out. It was nearly full and super quiet. There is hiking and access to the bluffs from the Campground. It's a quick drive to the pool (4$ per person) and river access. The only downside we're the bathrooms. Soaking wet floors, overflowing trash cans, no hooks or little shelf for towel or shower toiletries. It wasn't the very worst state park bathroom I've seen but definitely not impressive. This could be greatly improved. Beyond that, this park and Campground were wonderful and I highly recommend!
wish I can stay out there but I got out there ever day
Going to Pawhuska for pioneer women or just giving through this is a good choice. Decent bathrooms, good site, nice drive in and looks like they are finishing up some overall renovations.
Sequoyah State Park located just 8 miles from Wagoner Oklahoma has something for everyone. Sitting along the shore of Ft Gibson Lake with more than 19,000 surface acres and 225 miles of shoreline make this a water enthusiast paradise. From power boating, canoe and kayaking, fishing or just hanging at the beach area you will not be dissapointed. The park offers saddle rides, hiking and golf with a huge lodge facility complete with pool and splash area, dining, 104 guest rooms and 45 cottages. Camping is available in 5 campground areas varying from primitive tent camping to full hook up RV and bathhouses. The Choctaw campground sites all have water, sewer, and 50/30 amp electric with concrete pad, table, fire ring. Seminole and Cherokee having a mix of services. Paradise Cove and Chickasaw are for tent camping. There are plenty of picnic areas and playgrounds dispersed throughout and you definitely don't want to miss the Three Forks Nature Center. 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!

We decided to stay here on our journey because of the great reviews. It’s not bad… it seems most of the reviews are local , and going by that it is a 5 star spot… it’s an army core of engineers man made damn lake that was built in 53 . Lots of great pads for tent and medium rvs. It’s a bit of a noisy park as there prolly 30 trucks rolling by each morning and evening to use the boat ramp, and the sound of generators can be heard everywhere throughout the night . No accessible trails or bike paths from this point. For kayakers this lake might be a bit meh, it’s wide open and doesn’t have the abundant islands to explore as other damn lakes do near bye . If you love loud country music being sung a bit off key than this is your spot. All in all great little place to stop overnight on your way to the next place
We stayed at site 31. It was on the side with the bluffs. Beautiful sunset overlooking the lake. Trees separated us from the next campsites. It's very primitive so bring plenty of water.
