    Overview

    Head to Chicken Creek Campground for tons of fun on Tenkiller Ferry Lake. As one of the most popular campgrounds on the lake, Chicken Creek boasts modern facilities, impressive vistas, convenient access to boating and plenty of opportunities to view wildlife. It's no wonder why so many campers return each year.

    Recreation

    Water skiing, boating, fishing, hiking, and swimming are some of the activities enjoyed by visitors. Prevailing winds and secluded coves create an ideal environment for sailing. Scuba divers enjoy the lake's clear waters and high visibility. Fishing is good for black bass, white bass, striped bass, crappie and catfish. The trout stream below the dam is one of only two year-round trout fisheries in Oklahoma, and is regularly stocked with rainbow trout. Hunting is also permitted in parts of the lake area, in accordance with federal and state laws.

    Natural Features

    Tenkiller Ferry Lake is often referred to as "Oklahoma's clear water paradise." The 12,500 acre lake is sourced by the Illinois River and the Baron Fork, which are both designated as Oklahoma Scenic Rivers. It is nestled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains in the northeastern part of the state. This area, known as Green Country, is surrounded by dense oak-hickory forests, tall bluffs, and rolling hills. The lake has 130 miles of shoreline with plenty of wildlife such as deer and turkey. It serves as one of the flyways of migratory birds, including bald eagles, common loons, and white pelicans.

    Nearby Attractions

    Visit the Tenkiller State Park for its nature center and scuba diving park, the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge near Vian, or the historic city of Tahlequah - the capital of the Cherokee Nation. The scenic upper Illinois River near Tahlequah is great for canoeing and rafting, and the lower Illinois near Gore offers prime trout fishing.

    Even Better if You Like Stock Car Races

    Very nice and spacious sites with lots of trees and shade. Good hiking and views of the falls. Unless you’re a fan of oval dirt track racing, most Friday and Saturday nights in the summer and fall are pretty loud until after 11:00 at night.

    great place to stay off highway 412

    Stayed here while we went to Strawberry Festival in Stilwell. Very convenient to highway 412 and Siloam Springs. Hosts very friendly and helpful. New park, nothing fancy but a work in progress reasonably priced. Met our needs. Great location next to Illinois River if you want to kayak. Lots of open area to tent camp. Very secluded. Loved watching fireflies over the hayfield.

    Quiet and clean

    Was headed to Lake Fort Smith but area was booked so we stopped here and was pleased with our stay. Spaces are quite small but it has become the norm everywhere. Site A2 had fire pit, grill, picnic table was pretty level even with gravel. Fishing pond, dog walk area, propane station all on property for reasonable rates. Bathouse was clean and stocked. Only complaint was these little red mites. I looked them up and they are harmless but they were numerous and made us uncomfortable. I was especially concerned for our 2 dogs. I believe this is an old KOA under private ownership. They have done a great job updating the place. Jules at the office was also very pleasant and helpful.

    Beware Racetrack Noise

    This was a really nice campground with easy walks to some beautiful scenery! Flat pads with nice tables/grills/fire pits. Sites 3/4/11-14 have a lot more room so we’d probably pick one of those next time. There is a racetrack near by that was so loud we couldn’t hear each other talking from 6-11pm on Friday night which made it difficult to put our baby to bed. We’d love to go back but will definitely pick a weekend without a race next time.

    It has everything!

    I’ve lived within 2 hours almost 20 years and hadn’t visited. I’m so mad! LARGE, well spaced sites with two bath house within 50 yards in either direction. There were trails out of the campground. Riverfront spots are most ideal but the anything on the outside of the loop is beautiful. Visitors center with wood. Small store with small amount of camping supplies and snacks. Cafe onsite offering three things. The hikes are short and just amazing!!!!!

    Gorgeous place

    I go here with my friends every summer we hike almost all the trails , it’s gorgeous last time I went there (summer of 23) we saw a wild river otter swimming there is so much wildlife out there and it’s just gorgeous absolutely stunning and worth visiting, family friends and dog / pet friendly if you want to take your dogs on a hike this is the place , has stairs and is not very handicapped accessible if you want to go to the bottom of the falls but it is completely accessible for a wheelchair if you just want to view the falls from the top and there are multiple handicapped accessible paved paths !

    Very disapointed

    We had an absolutely wonderful first trip to Marval. However, we won the cabin decorating contest during the Halloween festivities this year and forgot to pick up our certicate for a two night stay in a deluxe cabin. We called when we were only one hour away and were reassured they would keep this for us and we could call to book our next stay at Marval. I called today to do so and was told by the general manager Stacy that I was given the wrong information by her staff and that maybe had I called within a week to rebook or turned around to get the paper certificate this would have been honored. I am extremely disappointed in this response when I was reassured that we did not need to turn around to get the certificate. I am also very disappointed in the way I was dismissed on the phone and told there was nothing she could do to make this right.

    Great time!

    My husband and I have yet to have a camping trip together. Both of us have always talked about and loved doing it as a kid but never found the time to do it until now. We had a blast.

    We tent camped and stayed in Site 80 on the RV camping area as it was the only area that had electric and water. We weren’t quite ready to go without electricity just yet as we kind of scrambled to make this trip happen before the weather turned cold and gets jammed with holidays.

    We stayed a Sunday & Monday night. Upon checking on Sunday the park was PACKED as expected. Rangers were advising people to avoid Yellowrock and find other trails to do. We weren’t even going to bother until the Monday afternoon. So we went down to check out our site and get set up. Site was clean and close to the bathrooms. Neighbors were a little noisy at night but calmed down around 9:45.

    Slept great and had a great day exploring the park and walking along the creek and went to Yellowrock which was gorgeous. Just download your maps before you go. No service so be mindful of that. I loved that aspect though.

    Monday night was great and previous neighbors had check out that day so a peaceful nights sleep was had.

    Can’t wait to come back and visit again!

    Many improvements since last time

    This was our second stop at the KOA in Fort Smith AR. They have many improvements since out last stay. The campground is convenient to I-40. It’s far enough away to not have traffic noise. The sites are level, there is a pool, Propane, fishing pond, and camp store. Also hiking trails. Also some tent sites. There is a whole new section for Class A and large 5th wheel campers now. The are located behind a highway department facility, and last visit the smell of the treated power line poles was overwhelming. No problem this time. This is one of the few campgrounds I’ve been to that have a storm shelter!

    Just my style (on weekdays)

    We absolutely loved our stay in Site #11 in Campground A.  The site was absolutely massive, and turned out to be even better than the one that we had initially picked out, but was already reserved.  We were a little concerned about lack of shade in this site, as it only had one tree in it, but it shaded at least some of the site all day every day, and even provided a nice umbrella to hang out under during the brief bouts of rain.  Hiking was fantastic, with each trail being dramatically different than the one before, and we did at least 7 of them in the 4 full days we were there.

    Things I loved:

    - no cell signal.  They did offer ViaSat WIFI for a fee, but I love to unplug when I get the chance.

    - the quiet natural beauty and dark sky

    - very clean bathrooms, which were cleaned daily, even though there might have been a total of 4 sites occupied at any given time during our stay.

    - frequent patrols by park rangers

    - beautiful trails

    Things I was not fond of:

    - the park rangers that patrolled did nothing to enforce the rule that dogs must be on-leash, even when we know they saw this multiple times.  Thanks to this, we had two dogs in the  site next door that would randomly wander over to and through our site, much to the consternation of our two on-lead dogs.  Thankfully, this couple left the day after we got there.

    - the firewood was soaking wet when we purchased it, even though it was stored in a shed near the visitor's center.  Decent price for the amount, but it was very difficult to start.

    - a few more people than I would have expected during the week at this time of year.  I would hate to see it on the weekends.

    Great Park, Great Site

    We stayed at Devil’s Den state park over indigenous peoples holiday weekend (Sunday-Tuesday) and had a really relaxing time. The site are large and clean, most of them are shaded and the bathroom is a full bathroom with flush toilets, sinks, and showers. The trails are gorgeous and plentiful. We saw deer, armadillos, and skunks and while we are not bird watchers there were a ton of birds. We were at site 5 which is a very spread out site. You park in the middle between your fire pit and the tent pad, which was big enough for our 8 person tent. We also had a small meadow to ourselves and then woods between us and site 3 which was great for privacy. Site 7 is close to the tent pad but not too close. Site 6 was vacant the first night but the second night had 2 large families (about 15 people) that were closer than we would have liked but still fine. All the even sites are in the center and all odd site are on the outer ring, which I think giver more privacy. Sites 4 and 1 are the least shaded with almost no trees. 1 has the advantage of direct access to the creek and a gorgeous view. My husbands favorite site was 16 which has about 10 trees and would be perfect for hammocking. It’s on the end of the loop. There was talk that a bear was spotted in the park, so be prepared and be sure not to leave scraps out or the skunks can get close to your site. Overall, it was a great campground and we would 100% go back!

    First KOA experience!

    We didn't know what to expect. This place has absolutely everything you could need. Full Hookups, level sites (mostly gravel but level), shop with souvenirs and RV gadgets. The office also has a gameroom, pantry, and propane. We didn't get to use the playground area this visit as pool and hot tub were closed for the year. They also have normal cabin rental and tiny home rentals that were perfectly positioned around campground and fishing pond. My only complaint would be that the sites are really compact. Plenty of room for your RV but so close that you can hear and smell your neighbors. Nearby Walmart and restaurants were handy.

    Peaceful and a little off the rdwy, but can still hear traffic sounds. Lots of shade, close to water. There are no working bathrooms, only 2 porta-potties that need to be cleaned out. They did allow car camping along with the tents and RVs.

    Beautiful lake views

    Worth the twenty minute drive from Grove. The remote location is great when you want to get away and feel like you are actually camping. The park is in the woods so almost all the spaces are shaded by beautiful old growth trees. We prefer this to the glorified parking lots that so many newer rv parks have become. The kids enjoy the outdoor pool and the lake views from the north side of the property are second to none at Grand Lake. Finally, the staff have been extremely friendly and helpful when we've stayed here and rates are great, especially for members.

    It was ok, I wasn’t super impressed

    I had heard so many great things about this park but I was not that impressed. The sites are fairly close together. There’s no signs warning that if you are in a large RV you shouldn’t come in on a certain highway. They do have equestrian trails and a campground to accommodate campers with horses. They have a lot of hiking trails. There are cabins and a pool.

    Less Serene, More Social

    This more of a queue campsite for groups that are floating the river the next day. It's an okay campsite as long as you're okay with noise from nearby campers and you're not looking for a remote experience. The lively atmosphere is packed with enthusiastic campers ready to hop in the river. They currently have 6-mile and 12-mile floats and plenty of raft options. They offer multiple-floater discounts up to groups of 40+ so just go into it knowing that you're going to make some new friends!

    This isn't a reflection on the campsite, but when I went, the river got a bit too low in places to float so make sure someone in your party is prepared to haul your raft, beer, sunscreen, etc.

    Close to lake, little shade

    This is a great RV resort close to the water but with very little shade. It is right across the street from Tera Miranda that has a cool restaurant on the water though. There are park models and group houses as well as RV pads. Nice central location on Monkey Island.

    Natural Falls State Park

    Beautiful, clean, quiet campground. Truly a gem!

    We camped May 5 through the 7th, feeling fortunate to have grabbed the last camping spot available:  space #9. First let me say that there are no bad spots in this beautiful park. All 26 spots with electric and water, and only about 6 of those had sewer...ours did not. There's also additional tent camping just on the north end of the park. Other amenities include comfort stations with showers, volleyball, horseshoes, and disk golf. No swimming, but that was not an issue for us. Lovely playgrounds for kids and lots of beautiful hiking trails. The campsite was patrolled routinely and kept neat as a pin. In the ranger station, you can get wood, ice, and keepsakes. This park has moved to the top of our favorites list!

    Natural Falls State Park

    Lovely little spot

    First time here. Beautiful campgrounds. Five different hiking trails, nice playgrounds, and frisbee golf. Really enjoyed staying here. Comfort Rooms by the tent area was nice and clean (and warm too). Site #8 was on the back of the camp circle at the start of a trailhead.

    Downsides - bathroom stalls don’t offer much privacy- huge gaps in the door frame. Tent area is small and close together. And the campground lights were on all night (which would be fine if the lights weren’t a bright white color).

    Lake Wedington -- Temporarily CLOSED

    Fun for the son!

    My son and I love the Lake Weddington trails. Haden loves running across the small bridges, throwing rocks in the water, and picking up pine cones. Also walking around, sitting lake side, and hanging out.
