Best Glamping near Overbrook, OK

Lake Murray State Park offers several glamping accommodations along its shoreline, with Elephant Rock, Buzzards Roost, and Tipps Point Campgrounds providing upscale outdoor stays. These glamping options include canvas structures and yurts with proper beds, climate control, and electricity—a significant upgrade from traditional camping. Situated around Oklahoma's oldest and largest state park, these accommodations blend natural settings with modern comforts. The glamping sites provide picnic tables, fire rings, and access to clean shower facilities, while maintaining proximity to the sparkling waters of Lake Murray. Some locations offer full hookups for those seeking additional amenities, creating a perfect balance of outdoor immersion and comfort. One guest shared, "We had the best camping trip ever. There was so much to do in this area of the state. We visited Ardmore for a day, wandered around town and the shops."

The glamping destinations within Lake Murray State Park connect visitors to extensive recreational opportunities along the 5,700-acre lake. Guests can access hiking trails directly from their glamping sites, including the Buckhorn trail which starts right in the Tipps Point Campground area.

The park also features Tucker's Tower nature center, golf courses, and marina facilities that enhance the glamping experience. Winter visitors enjoy more seclusion, while summer brings lively atmosphere and water recreation. According to a camper, "We really love coming to Elephant Rock. It has great options—some spots are secluded in the trees and some are open in the middle areas if you want to be around people. It has lake access, great playgrounds for kids, close to town with everything you need."

    Shangri-La RV Resort

    Peaceful and quiet!

    We stayed here for 2 weeks over Labor Day 2020. It is a secluded, large property far away from any road noise so it is very quiet. All sites have FHU 30/50 amp. Sites are either grass or some gravel. Our site, 25, was shady, grassy and level with room for us to park our car next to our MH. The owners are pleasant and helpful. When we arrived they were on vacation but they had a woman watching the park. She told us to pick any site. Our Verizon was 2 bars of 4G and I was told that AT&T is sketchy here. There is plenty of shopping in nearby Ardmore. There is 1 set of showers, a laundry room and 3 community fire pits. There are no dog runs but it seems nobody pays attention to the“Pets must be leashed and under control” rule. In my opinion this is one of those places where“Resort” is a misnomer. No picnic tables, cable, WiFi. Pool or other amenities associated with other RV Resorts. If you are in the area, especially for Lake Murray, you don’t need those other conveniences and enjoy peace and quiet this is a good place for you. Website is www.shangri-larvresort.com

    Buckhorn Campground Loop C — Chickasaw National Recreation Area

    One of Our Favorite Places

    This was the first time we camped in Loop C, which is reserve only. It was in January, so the Loop was about 1/3rd full with mostly RVs. Loop D, first come, first serve, had less campers. RV sites have water & electric & tent sites have shared water. The restrooms were very nice, clean and heated. We stayed at site 81C, which was a challenge to back into because of trees that were close to drive. The pad was fairly level & the picnic table/fire pit pad was separated from the RV pad. I could only imagine how secluded this site would feel with vegetation on the trees. This loop also had many tent sites and all the tent & RV sites are well sized & spaced. Some RV sites closer to the water look like they would be a challenge to level, but most sites have fairly level pads & all sites have very level picnic/fire pit pads for an area that has some generally steep slopes. There was only one lake view RV site in Loop C, 56C, that had the hookups on the side that pointed the front door towards the lake, but all had a gorgeous view from the picnic/fire pit pads. Absolutely love the Chickasaw National Recreational Area because of the many activities this park offers & its history.

    Red River Rose RV Resort

    Lovely but noisy

    We stayed for an overnight with our 36’ trailer. It was easy to find and we chose the easiest spot to park. Our spot had a cement pad which was mostly level. The resort is well maintained and clean. Looks like a fun location with kids. Staff was polite and helpful.

    Propane refill available on site (big plus).

    Be ready for highway noise and the occasional train whistle.

    Thousand Trails Lake Texoma

    Not as far if you take picnic trail

    One big issue with this park is the distance to the actual lake itself. You will need a cart or be ready for a hike to the beach area as it is quite a ways from the campground. that is an issue for us as my wife is disabled and needs a walker and we have no cart. But, lucky for us we were in the B section and decided one of the days we were there to attempt the picnic walk. Well worth it, even with a walker we managed to make it down to the waters edge within 15 minutes and its an easy gradual walk. Bring a picnic basket. tables to sit at or on the waters edge.

    As for the rest of the camp, most amenities due to winter months and covid were shut down. Did see people enjoying the hot tub. The roads in many of these TT campground in the loop around Dallas do need attention so take your time going through them. We did need to use the laundry and they had ample enough machines and the basic price which was 1.50 and 1.75. The sites are nice, many shaded but snug not of other campers but trees. Some have fire pits, some do not. As with more and more campgrounds these days many annuals throughout the park.

    Martin's Landing Campground — Lake Murray State Park

    Martins landing Area 1

    We grabbed sites 52 and 53, for two families! Perfect size and perfect spot right on the water- in cove like area of the lake. The sites are spread out a decent amount. There is a fire pit and grill, for charcoal grilling. There is a wooded area next to these two sites where you can go for a nice little walk. There are bathrooms, with a sink and toilets, cleaned daily, as well as showers. Tons of space for grass games and kids to run free.

    Buckhorn Campground Loop C — Chickasaw National Recreation Area

    A cut above for National Park campgrounds

    General: Buckhorn is one of six campgrounds in Chickasaw NRA (Central, Cold Springs, and Rock Creek are located in the Platt historic district closer to the town of Sulphur. These are best for tent camping with no hookups. Guy Sandy, The Point, and Buckhorn are located on or near Lake of the Arbuckles) with a total of over 400 sites. I am not sure why we chose Buckhorn, but it was possibly due to a Dyrt review and we were not disappointed! Some are reservable, some have water and electric, and some are walk-in. If you enter the park via the town of Sulphur, make sure you stop at the visitor center for a map and information. There is no fee to enter the park.

    Site Quality/Facilities: Buckhorn has four loops, two of which were closed when we were there in early May. We reserved site 56 in the C Loop, which had a view of Lake of the Arbuckles. The sites are large, spaced a good distance apart and wooded, providing privacy. Our site (but not all of them) had a large picnic table, water, electric, lantern hook, bbq grill, and fire pit. There is an amphitheater between the C and D Loops, but I am not sure when/if programs will resume.

    Bathhouse: The restrooms were very clean, and the good surprise was showers, a rarity in National Park Service campgrounds. The shower is clean, solar heated and operates on a timer. The water was immediately warm and although I did not time it, I had sufficient time to shower and wash my hair, and not feel rushed. There are plenty of hooks and a bench plus an outlet for a blow dryer. Only one spider made an appearance! Soap dispensers in the bathroom and air dryers (I bring my towel).

    Activities/Amenities: There is a nature center, two springs, some small waterfalls, and a 2.9- mile paved path around Veteran’s Lake (you would need to drive to get to these areas from Buckhorn). There are also multi-use trails closer to Buckhorn which are used for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Fishing appeared to be popular as we saw several boats by some of the sites. Swimming is also allowed but I would imagine this would be in the summer when it is warmer. No to fleeting cell service on Verizon although we did have cell closer to the town of Sulphur in the Platt Historic District.

    It was very quiet and peaceful when we stayed here on a weekday in early May with only about 20% occupancy. For $11($22 for non-seniors), this campground is an excellent value, and I would absolutely return.

    Thousand Trails Lake Texoma

    First RV camping Adventure

    First RV stay so this review is from the perspective of a family that has no experience with any RV Parks. 3 Stars is my starting point and as we stay at more campgrounds I would like to think that we will have a better understanding of what makes an RV stay "5 stars". This location is "first come/first serve" sites so for a beginner that can be a bit challenging. Working with Thousand Trails and the experience with that service was great. The road into and around the park was okay, there was room to drive around the entire park while looking for a spot. The spot's varied in size and there were no fire pits or grills provided by the park in the spots that we were able to see. The picnic tables have seen better days and i'm sure that is not uncommon. The 30 amp S/E/W hookups were clean and no issues with any service during the stay. There was not cable so TV was over the air antenna only. Cell coverage was fine during our stay. The park had activity areas but with COVID restrictions most were still unused. There is road to the lake that you can take to go to a small fishing pier and some rocky lake area access. The restrooms/showers were clean and the garbage bins were full but never overflowing with trash. There are multiple pools and the water appeared clear from a distance. Saw lot's of pet's and every size RV, there appeared to be quite a few long term RV sites. We would visit again since this is part of our Thousand Trails membership.


Guide to Overbrook

Lake Murray State Park provides premium glamping accommodations in several locations near Overbrook, Oklahoma. The park's shoreline campgrounds offer varying levels of privacy, with some sites set back in quiet wooded coves and others positioned directly on the water. During winter months, visitation drops significantly, creating more secluded camping experiences, while summer brings higher occupancy rates and busier facilities, particularly at lakefront sites.

What to do

Hiking the Buckhorn trail: The trail starts right in Tipps Point Campground and connects to other recreation areas. One camper noted, "The Buckhorn trailhead is right in the campground, so easy access to hiking. Trails are well marked and not too difficult."

Kayaking in clear water: Launch from quieter areas early morning to avoid crowds at Buzzards Roost Campground. A visitor shared, "On Sunday we got up with the sun and beat everyone else to the boat launch area. The water and surroundings were beautiful and even for a busy holiday weekend it didn't feel too busy or crowded."

Geocaching and exploring: The park offers multiple outdoor activities beyond water recreation. According to a regular visitor at Elephant Rock, "So much to do, hike fish, golf, geocaching and more."

Visit Ardmore: Take a day trip to explore the nearby town. A Buzzards Roost camper reported, "We visited Ardmore for a day. Wandered around town and the shops. Another day we visited the tower and enjoyed the clear water on a jet ski and Kayaks."

What campers like

Clear blue-green water: Unlike many Oklahoma lakes with reddish water, Lake Murray stands out. A camper at Buzzards Roost Campground described, "Oklahoma is often known for its red/brown lakes, but Lake Murray is an exception. Green/blue waters that were clear enough to see the tip of my paddle when stuck straight down 4-5 feet."

Well-maintained facilities: The park keeps amenities clean and functioning. One visitor to Marietta Landing mentioned, "Recently remodeled, the campsites in the RV loop are all pretty spacious, level, and paved."

Wildlife viewing: Early morning and evening hours provide opportunities to spot local fauna. A camper reported, "Seen some deer after we got rained out and spent a whole day in the tent with the family."

Fishing opportunities: Many sites offer direct lake access for anglers. A camper at Tipps Point commented, "The sites where we were at are a bit close together. It definitely would have been better to be further on the peninsula or at Cedar Cove or Elephant Rock. But access to water was close. Lake Murray is one of the more clear lakes in Oklahoma."

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Popular sites fill quickly, especially in summer and on weekends. A camper at Elephant Rock Campground advised, "They have only a few spots available to reserve and those need to be booked well in advance. Its VERY busy in the summer, but if you can arrive Thursday or early Friday, you shouldn't have a problem."

Site selection considerations: Site locations vary widely in privacy and water access. A visitor noted, "We really love coming to Elephant Rock. It has great options - some spots are secluded in the trees and some are open in the middle areas if you want to be around people."

Water hookup logistics: Some sites require extra equipment. A camper mentioned, "We had a great view of the lake, however we didn't realize we would need 50 feet of hose just to hook up to the water."

Boat parking etiquette: Waterfront views can be obstructed by improperly parked boats. One visitor complained, "When we pulled up, someone had parked their fishing boat and pontoon boat right in front of our site at the shore. They could have moved it to the left or right between sites but no, picked right in front of ours."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Marietta Landing Campground offers play facilities without heavy boat traffic. A camper observed, "There is no swimming area but there is a playground it is on a very very quiet cove where you can kick back on the rocky shores and pull a kayak or small water craft up near campsites."

Educational opportunities: Visit Tucker Tower nature center for family learning. A visitor recommended, "So many trails, sites on the lake, playgrounds, marina, beautiful lake! If you come here don't miss out on Tucker's Tower! Tucker's tower is a nature center/museum inside lake Murray state park."

Clean bathroom facilities: Comfort stations are well-maintained throughout the park. A tent camper at Tipps Point shared, "The bathrooms and showers were awesome. Good sized areas for tents. Swimming area was fun and easily accessible."

Open play areas: Some sites offer more space for children. A visitor to Martins Landing mentioned, "Tons of space for grass games and kids to run free."

Tips from RVers

Site leveling challenges: Come prepared with leveling equipment at Buckhorn Campground. A visitor warned, "Just beware if you are camping in an RV, the site is VERY unlevel! We were in a pop up camper and had one tire up off the ground at least 6 inches with our Baleveler."

Power reliability: Some areas experience occasional electrical issues. One camper reported, "Our electric did short out on us a few times causing us to need to unplug and plug back in. It didn't concern us too much, we understood it comes with territory when using these heavily used hook ups."

Dump station access: Some areas have challenging exit routes from the facilities. A camper noted, "Dump station at the campground is easy access, however the exit up the somewhat eroded gravel hill may require some maneuvering for larger rigs."

Site configurations: For those seeking more privacy, back-in sites often provide better separation from roads. One camper advised, "I felt like I was camped on the side of a road. If I were to return, I would chose a site in the area with back in camping. Although these sites aren't on the water and are closer together, they are at least set off of the road and would be quieter."
