Best Dispersed Camping near Tishomingo, OK
Blue River Camp near Tishomingo, Oklahoma requires a hunting/fishing license or a 3-day wildlife conservation passport ($51) to access the camping areas. The site offers both drive-in and walk-in access with tent and RV camping options. Campers will find toilet facilities and trash disposal available, but no drinking water, hookups, or showers. The campground features waterfront sites along Blue River with boulder formations, swimming areas, and multiple well-maintained, flat campsites.
The area includes Hughes Crossing, a waterfall that serves as a vehicle crossing point suitable for trucks but challenging for low-clearance vehicles. "The water was amazing and clean," notes a review on The Dyrt, though visitors should be prepared to pack out waste as some areas suffer from accumulated trash. While fishing is permitted, reviews indicate limited success despite the attractive river setting. The camp is particularly peaceful on weekdays when visitation is lower.
