    Sallisaw-Fort Smith West KOA's designated Kamp K9 area provides off-leash space for dogs while maintaining clean facilities throughout the campground. Campers can access full hookup RV sites, tent camping areas, cabins, and glamping options that welcome pets with proper supervision. Sites feature level pads with gravel and concrete along with picnic tables and fire rings. The bathrooms remain consistently clean with good showers, important for campers traveling with muddy dogs. Pets must remain leashed when outside designated pet areas, with waste disposal stations available throughout the property. The campground's fenced dog area offers space for pets to run freely after long travel days in vehicles. Most campsites have mature trees providing shade, essential for keeping pets cool during summer months.

    Applegate Cove Campground's spacious sites near the Arkansas River welcome dogs with well-maintained grounds and two playgrounds. The walking loop down to the river provides excellent sunset views and exercise opportunities for both campers and their canine companions. Water access points allow dogs to cool off during hot Oklahoma days, though owners should watch for river barge traffic from the nearby Robert S. Kerr Lock and Dam. The campground features 27 sites with electric and water hookups, plus a dump station and courtesy dock for fishing enthusiasts. Brushy Lake State Park Campground offers another pet-friendly option with a quiet, family-oriented atmosphere around a small watershed lake. The walking trail located at the back of the park provides additional exercise opportunities for dogs, with clean campsites recently updated by the City of Sallisaw.

      Cedar Lake Equestrian Campground

      Great campground

      This was mine and my mom's favorite place to camp in Oklahoma. The campground is heavily forested with pine trees and there are some sites right off the lake. It has a very nice bathroom facility with showers. Normally when we would go (in the fall and spring) it was not very crowded. Lots of great hiking trails nearby and the scenic Talimena scenic drive is beautiful, especially in the fall.

      Crossroads RV Park and Campground

      Affordable

      Stayed for a little over a month for my husband's work. Great monthly rate. The property is currently for sale. There is a laundry/bathhouse (you may need to bring your own TP) with two washers (No change machine), two dryers and propane fill on site (curren owner is not here much/may need to schedule refill time). It appears that they are in the middle of opening a larger laundry/shower house. Lots of grassy areas for pet people and an easy commute for shopping. There is traffic noise as it is off a busy road, music or TV drowns it out. There are many people who live here permanently. I see someone take their trash out daily. This could be why i had to spray a LOT to avoid a roach infestation. There is a nice stray "park dog" and several stray cats. I would stay here again as it is for sale.

      Sallisaw-Fort Smith West KOA

      Convenient to I-40

      This is KOA, not my favorite place to stop, but they have good, basic facilities, sort of like Motel 6. They are just off I-40, so it was convenient for a one night stop. The sites were level, and were Pull-Thru so we didn’t even unhook. Full hookups, Some shade, a dump station. The shower/bathroom was clean. There is a small store. They also have cabins and tent sites; Free Wi-Fi, cable tv, a pool and playground, and a pond for fishing. There is a small Kamp K9 (dog park). When we were there everything was wet, and the smell of wet creosote from the log yard next door was terrible.

      Sequoyah State Park - Marina and Cabins

      Beautiful park and campgrounds

      Even in November this is a great place to camp. In the Choctaw loop easy back in or pull thru sites. Very short walk to the lakeshore. Golf course in the park. Pet friendly. Close to tulsa too. There are shops just outside the park if you need propane or charcoal etc. Worth the trip!
