        Small, quiet camp ground

        Make your reservations through the City of Pauls Valley. Don’t call. Keep a copy of your paid receipt (email) in case you’re asked. Host lives on site. Nice boat ramp. Great little beach area for swimming at the lake. Kayaks/lifevests/paddles available for rent. We will try that next visit.

        Oklahoma City East KOA

        Well managed, pleasant

        This KOA is an excellent choice for visiting Oklahoma City. Check in was quick and friendly. It was easy to get to downtown, yet the traffic noise was never an issue. Anything you need is nearby. We liked our site, it was level and the utilities great. The bathroom/showers were very clean and there was plenty of hot water. The maintenance was good throughout. Solid KOA.

        Okemah Lake

        Not very pleasant.

        Stayed the night prior to a bass tournament. I was surprised to see weeds overgrown in the camp areas, the shoreline is covered in tall weeds. The fire rings were trashed and grill mostly unusable. Loud trucks and cars made it very noisy. Evidently there isn’t a speed limit or anyone out there enforcing any laws. I will return to fish but it’s not worth camping at. Cell service is very unreliable.

        Abandoned

        This once cool camping lake looks unattractive and not taking care of of. Weeds in campgrounds, fire pits full of trash and grills all broken. There is no longer any personnel or workers living in the area. You are basically on your own with no Patrols or Law Enforcement. Loud people kept us up all night and we left early. Go elsewhere. Not family friendly anymore.

        Peaceful springtime camp spot

        Very pleasantly surprised by this campground. Has everything you need for pretty cheap ($11 for tent/no hookup) including bathrooms, tables, trash, water and more. Only one other car on a weeknight in April, so very quiet and peaceful. Bathrooms were kind of gross but I expect that’s due to visiting in a shoulder season.

        Hog Creek West — Lake Thunderbird State Park

        Very nice under the trees with trails

        We stayed here on our way out in December. For visitor center was quite nice and the staff quite friendly. We only stayed for a night but we had enough time to walk the trails close which were very nice. It seems there's more activities on the other side of the lake if that's what you want to do there's trails and multiple places to put in a boat and to tie it up closer to where you would stay.

        Quiet spot near the lake

        Nice campspots as we are passing through Oklahoma, near Norman and restaurants/grocery stores. Quiet with decent shower and bathrooms.

        The spot we found was level, but has pulled into the spot next door first and it was not very level. You can't beat the price for $26 a spot for electric. They also don't tack on non-resident fees like some states wish is appreciated. Tourism brings additional money into the state. Thank you!

        Oak Glen RV & Mobile Home Park

        Clean, Quiet and cost friendly

        We were here for a 3-day stop to visit friends. It has been around for some time right off Route 66. The staff were friendly, and we were given our choice of where to camp. Our spot was a pull-through, not completely level, but that wasn't a problem for us. The campground was clean and very comfortable. The only downside is the red dirt that is easy to track into your camper, Its Oklahoma.

        Good time

        Lake Standly Draper was a good place to see if I could solo camp at my age of 63??? I love the peace and tranquility feeling went after Labor Day and did a lot of fishing(no luck). Learned about myself and made some decisions on my next stage of life.

        Very crowded

        Not to bad of a campsite. Bathrooms are atrocious. It’s very crowded. Your right next to everyone but it’s kinda expected I guess. Very large park

        Dripping Springs Campground

        Got there the Friday before Memorial Day Weekend but didn't go out there until Saturday before and I was too late for the campsites among the trees. I was in the overflow camping, nice spots but no trees taller than 6 feet, It wasn't a deal breaker because the temp never got above 75 degrees. The people that watched the place were pleasant, the park was clean and the showers and restrooms were clean but showed their age, just like me. One very small bar on my Verizon iPhone 12 but I managed to Facetime when I wanted. The campground commander had ice but that was about all. It was 11 to 14 miles to the grocery store on 5th Street or the Walmart a bit further south on US 75. It is a first come, first serve kinda place. If you call and there is a place, you have to put something on the pad or it is still up for rental. I enjoyed myself and another trip there isn't out of the question.

        Run down and let go

        We were there 2 years ago and it was perfect and peaceful. Quite a bit has changed since then. Random people yelling and fighting, loud motors tires squaling. This place hasn’t been kept up and it now attracts the random locals. Definitely not family friendly. We tried to find someone working but was told they go home at 4. Sadly you are on your own and we will not be back.

        Busy campground with excellent management

        Beautiful campground with plenty of amenities at a great price. The spaces were a good size to fit our 45’ toyhauler with 2 vehicles (and put the back patio down). There are a fair bit of trees, so big rigs use caution pulling into spaces.

        Nice playground for the kids, pool was closed (opens Memorial Day to Labor Day), dog park is large and very well shaded. Laundry room is very clean and well kept.

        Approximately 20-30 minutes from OKC zoo & science museum.

        Overall wonderful stay with no complaints.

        Great stop

        Stayed in site 27 for one night passing through. Last minute stop and several sites available. Beautiful sunrise and sunset over the lake. Sites close together and a bit loud, but we were there on a Saturday night. Walk-in tent sites looked great.
