A City of Davis owned park with 1500 acres of Castles, Caves, Hiking and a Spring fed Creek that runs all the way through the park!
Turner was born in Virginia and married a Chickasaw named Laura Johnson. He then became a farmer in Murray County and in 1878 he and is wife settled in a cabin along Honey Creek. Turner discovered the nearby waterfall, which earned his name. The recreational area came under the ownership of the city of Davis in 1919. Davis operated the park until 1950, and then leased it out until 1978, when they resumed management of the area. Davis purchased 370 acres for the park from the Turner family in 1925, paying a reported sum of $17,000.
The Park has received national publicity and serves as a classroom for naturalists as it includes three natural caves, formations of conglomerates, limestone, granite, shale and sandstone.
We have beautiful RV Sites with water and electric hookups.
RV Campground has twelve 30amp sites and twenty 50amp sites. Daily admission is required for all guests.
There is a dump station located on the park grounds for your convenience.

Tips for Lake Murray camping: From the park office, head north and take the winding road to Tipp’s Point, Cedar Cove and Elephant Rock campgrounds. Known as the most popular campgrounds on the lake’s west side, these campgrounds boast all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. All three areas feature RV camping, as well as comfort stations with showers, picnic pavilions, boat ramps and playgrounds. If you’re not camping, you can still enjoy the swim beaches and direct lake access these areas offer for only $5 per car. Tent camping areas, plenty of room for big RVs, direct access to the wooded Buckhorn Trail and stunning lake views make these campgrounds a sure-fire hit.
Central Campground is a family-friendly primitive group campground found in the Platt Historic District of Chickasaw National Recreation Area. Nearby Travertine Creek provides several refreshing, spring-fed swimming areas to escape the summer heat. Other close attractions, such as Little Niagara and the Travertine Nature Center make this campground an ideal location for both beginner and experienced campers. Central Campground is only a few minutes away from the town of Sulphur.
Swimming and hiking are among the favorite activities at the campsite. A short walk takes you to Panther Falls, a refreshing swimming area. Nearby hiking trails meander along streams, past cool rushing waterfalls, and on to mineral and freshwater springs.
The springs and streams in Chickasaw originate within a region of Oklahoma characterized by complex geology. Intense faulting, folding, uplift and erosion have combined to form a land surface of gently rolling hills dissected by streams.
Try Little Niagara, a favorite freshwater swimming hole. The Travertine Nature Center is a wonderful resource to view nature exhibits, meet live animals on display, and listen to rangers' presentations. A bison pasture is nearby, so bring the kids and cameras to see the beautiful animals grazing.
Refunds will not be given due to inclement weather. Please read the official cancellation rules and policies of recreation.gov thoroughly before booking your campsite. Chickasaw National Recreation Area is not responsible for cancellation fees charged by recreation.gov.

bathrooms was very clean and wasn’t all hot and mucky was nice and cool in there. Very clean and love that it’s dog friendly. I suggest anyone to come with your friends and family have a nice day cooking, kicking back and playing some games
Scout
Fun for whole family even our dogs enjoyable very peaceful and lots of wildlife
GuideCan’t beat this site for $29/night. 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 we were just happy there was a last-minute cancellation on their website allowing us to be here otherwise it was all booked up for the weekend (I just kept refreshing the booking page).
Bathrooms good. Access the water was close. Lake Murray is one of the more clear lakes in Oklahoma.
The golf course, which was beautiful & close, has super twilight hours (after 6pm) which made it very affordable $16pp w/cart.
Great visit. Will be back!

This was my first stop on a 4,000-mile trip from NW Arkansas to California and back. I met my brother and his wife who live just north of Fort Worth and spent two nights cooking and laughing around the campfire. The perfect start to an adventure.
The weather was cool and so not many bugs. Since this was a water-facing spot, I would consider the weather when booking. Great hikes. Don't forget to visit the tower while you're there.

All I can say is WOW, from the scenery, beautiful flowers display, to catch and release fishing to the adorable baby ducks this park is BEAUTIFUL! My husband and I absolutely love it here. Before arrival I spoke with Echo about what we needed in order to accommodate our stay and she was able to answer all our questions, upon arrival we met the sweetest young woman Taylor in the front office, she gave us all the information we needed, some history of the park and suggested restaurants and things to do locally. Brandon who informed us he did repairs and would be more then willing to help us as we are new to the RVing. The next morning we was having a minor cable issue(user error silly me) a gentleman name Anthony came to our site and had as ready to go in no time as the storms were coming in I wanted to be weather aware, as the day went on we was amazed by how much Anthony and the other gentleman outside did( I think his brother; they look a lot alike) to keep the park beautiful as well as helping anyone who stopped them throughout the day! 10/10 recommend this park and will be sharing with all my friends and family. Although, I didn’t get to meet Debra the manager this time during our stay, her staff spoke highly of her I believe she is doing a great job with the staff she has on hand. I am completely blown away and amazed with how much hospitality and joy this park brought us, you don’t see it much anymore. This park has such a homey feeling, the staff all seem like family and make you feel like you are apart of them. Keep up the good work red river rose you have definitely earned our business for many more years to come.

Camping areas are vast, but dirty with limited amenities. Have to fill up water at RV area. Scrambling and water areas are great though, lots of fun.
Traveler
I was just passing through on a road trip and needing a cheap place to spend the night, but this was the kind of park I’d actually come back to and hang out in. The camp sites are spread out and clean. The lake views are beautiful. There are tons of activities like hiking, fishing, or paddle boarding.
RangerI booked here for the FHU sites, but was not overly impressed. The Bois loop pull throughs, although paved, were severely sloped and hard to level. The hiking trails were not that great either. Convenient off 75.
GuideWe 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.
Guide
A decent spot to stop. The roads within the park itself could use some serious attention. When you first drive into the park, to the left they are in the process of building an entire new section and it looks nice. I wish they would do some upkeep on the rest of the park as well. It’s first come, first served. The first spot I chose had a bad pedestal, so I had to pick up and choose another spot. I would definitely recommend checking the pedestal before unpacking. There were a ton of spots closed off because of the bad pedestals. There’s a nice walk to Lake Texoma which was nice. Not a lot to do around otherwise. Only 4 washers and 4 dryers for the entire park. Verizon service was good, along with T-Mobile. Even better with my cell booster. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Guide
Beautiful park with lots of trees, nice place to swim, walking trails, and a playground for the littles.

My family has camped, or 'Day Camped,' for birthdays, distant relative visits, etc. for years. We try to avoid July 4th time frame...just too crowded. Along ice cold Travertine Creek, quick dips or extended swims are mere steps away! Plenty of hiking trails nearby as well.
ScoutWe stayed in elephant rock 2 site 44, 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, and there were glass bottles all in the swim area. Still had a great weekend and will stay here again!

Jake from the Dyrt here! The Lodges at Fossil Creek are a unique stay with modern cabins, or you can bring your RV to explore the area! Check them out and make sure to post some pictures of your stay!
ScoutI have camped here many times. The park is well maintained and offers beautiful hiking trails and scenery. It is also safe with plenty of staff making rounds to ensure everyone's safety. I have stayed at their pull through camper sites, shelters, as well as tent camping with no complaints. The park is also undergoing construction upgrades and new paved roads ATM but the areas are clearly identified on their website. Definitely a family friendly park with plenty of wildlife to enjoy!
Traveler
The RV lots are roomy, and the park is active and neighborly, and the evenings are peaceful & quiet. Grounds are well kept and the staff are very accommodating. We'll definitely come back.
Scout
Rude manager! And, everyone LIVES there. No place to camp and enjoy.
GuideTurner Falls is one of the most beautiful parks in the state, unfortunately, it's owned by the City of Davis and they're a little bit greedy when it comes to admission. Keep in mind when you're thinking about booking that your reservation price will also include the park access for each person/vehicle in your party. It's a little bit convoluted but they do disclose it if you dig around on their website.
Collings Castle is an extremely cool and pretty unique hike, especially if you're into abandoned places. It can get pretty crowded but there are plenty of nooks and crannies in the maze of buildings that you can duck into. Some folks think it may be haunted and I don't usually buy into stuff like that - but anyone who built a castle during the Great Depression probably had a few skeletons in their closet.
The falls are obviously stunning but the caves are a must-visit if you can find them. There are tons of secrets to find and natural mazes. Despite my issues with the ownership, Turner Falls is always worth a trip.
TravelerThis area of Lake Murray has a boat ramp but also a lot of beach space for swimming. There’s a sandbar that extends out into the water almost to Elephant Rock. Beautiful surround views of the lake, peaceful area. The water hookup was nearly 70’ from us so we did have to borrow a water hose.
GuideWe loved our time here! Quiet park with activities and a lake. We had a pull through site with plenty of space for our 44’ 5th wheel, truck and extra vehicle. Would definitely stay again
Scout
I called to book. He said "no RSVP" required. Showed up, and called to let them know that we were there, and he told me that his wife would call right back; She never did call us back. We left, and went South wondering where would stay for the night, and a mile or two down the road we found Smoking Joes RV and Barbecue. What a Godsend. I'm new to RVing, and I've heard again, and again, lower your expectations and learn to roll with the punches and you'll be just fine. I'm finding that to be wisdom.

Ashley here from The Dyrt! We’re excited to have this new partner online. Just minutes from southeast Oklahoma's most popular attractions. They're walking distance to Lake Texoma, where you can enjoy plenty of outdoor activities, including fishing, boating, swimming, and hiking. Check them out and post some pictures here!
RangerWe came here for a fishing tournament and wanted to stay somewhere on the southwest side of lake texoma. The on site staff is friendly, the sites are clean, full hookups and lake views.
RangerLoved our stay here in the tent section. Trees provided much needed shade, yet enough for solar to stay charged. Restrooms were close, showers were a little bit of a walk. Each tent site has a table and fire pit. Lovely views of lake Texoma. Great hiking and rock climbing opportunities. The marina store is a short walk away and you can rent kayaks and canoes!
TravelerFull hook ups available. Some have no sewer hook ups. Most are 30 amp, many are 50 amp. Sites range from full sun to full shade. Quite a few annuals. Might have given 5 stars but both pools are shut down and it's HOT! Lake is accessible- about half a mile down a private road. Interior roads are a bit rough. Mini golf, shuffle board, horse shoes and playgrounds are available.
GuideNot a huge fan of camping in state park campgrounds, but this is a very nice option. Had a group campout here with those new to camping. Having easy access to bathhouses and power made it easier to have more people show up. Eisenhower has great hiking options and sells firewood on site
ScoutGreat campground for RVers. Full hook ups but along the shoreline just electric and water
