    Foss State Park Campground

    Beautiful autumn view

    Because of the time of year, it was very quiet. Nice lake view. Our site had a beautiful tree—Heritage Pear. Bathrooms are not convenient. It was quite the hike from the camping area.

    Quiet, Well Groomed, Clean Bathrooms

    Nice 4 day stop! Great place to walk the pups, enjoy the peace and quiet, and listen to the water and the wind. We stayed at Sandy Beach in site 001. It was a fantastic spot! Bathrooms were clean. Electric and water hookups were great, and the dump station was in good working order. Not many other guests were there. The staff was really nice on the phone. My only note for improvement is related to a good amount of litter in the bushes and some bottle tops and zip ties at our camp site. I'm sure it's hard for the staff to keep up with. If guests were more conscious of their trash, it would make the world a better place, but that can be said of many places.

    Air conditioned restrooms!

    I booked a site at the Buffalo Bend Campground in Foss SP while traveling on Highway 40. The park is a little bit far from the highway but a pretty drive. We were in site BB002 which had decent privacy. Unfortunately, it was a very hot and humid day but we were pleasantly surprised by the air-conditioned bathrooms. I’ve been camping a lot, but that was a first! The area in Buffalo Bend did not have views of the lake and there was no breeze but the bathrooms had clean showers.

    Beautiful Sunsets

    We stayed 2 nights in the Cedar Point section of this huge campground. Our site, CP003, had a great view of the lake and the gorgeous sunset over the lake.  The sites were level, but offered no privacy due to the closeness of the sites and no vegetation coverage between them.

    The bathhouse was quite a distance from the campsites.  The showers were individual rooms with an adequate number of wall hooks to keep personals off the floor. The water flow in my shower was weak and lukewarm.  My husband said that his shower was the best ever with very hot water and strong water flow!  The bathhouse interior could use a new coat of paint.

    The campground was well-maintained with plenty of open areas for activities, including disc golf.

    Foss State Park Campground

    Stayed at Mouse Creek

    This is the equestrian campground and it has 17 miles of trails connected to it. There's both a number of spots for RVs and some beautiful spots down by the lake for tents. And the only one here almost nobody has driven through I can hear the road but pretty much have had the place to myself which has been very nice. The trail is really just a mode grass pack but you can bike on it and you can walk on it and there's some evidence of horses I'm not sure how much use this part of it gets. Bathrooms and showers are great and available I would definitely stop back again if I'm coming through this way.

    Foss State Park Campground

    Wow wow wow!

    It was the only not free campsite we camped at on our two week trip with new sites every night. I have no complaints in any way shape or form about the camp so it 100% gets five stars from me. Only complaint is about the website and the map offered on the website. Completely unhelpful and poorly designed. In this time of technology that is accessible to everyone, you NEED to update your forums. But that’s enough from me. This was my second favorite campsite during my trip across nine states and fourteen campsites. And it’s definitely top three of all time.

    Wonderful

    Stayed at Cottonwood campground in early October. Only 2 others here. All other grounds at Foss are equally empty. Clean toilets and showers, clean sites w/ water and power. Coyotes at night. A very pleasant stay.

    Nice lakeside spot

    Good one night stay. Access to swimming in the lake from our campsite. Facilities were clean. Check out Slice 183 in New Cordell for good pizza!

    Foss State Park Campground

    Beautiful scenery. Some details need work though

    We stayed on site 7 at “Sandy Beach”

    We had fantastic neighbors and a great view of the lake. 

    Unfortunately the bathrooms/showers were the worst of our four stops on this journey. They were pretty bad. 

    Additionally, our shoreline power went out overnight too. Thus, we leaned on the generator to get us through the 100 degree night.

    Nice and spacious !

    Had a great time for Memorial weekend. I will say that our neighbors had about 8 dogs between them and never kept them on leashes. Park rangers came around but never said anything. The site we stayed at had the hookups on the opposite side.

    Really Not what I expected

    I’d heard such great things about this place I couldn’t wait to get there. The springs were nice and that’s about it. The lakes are empty there’s a pretty foul smell I’m sure is spring related. The parks gone that my kid was really looking forward to. Just not worth the time or money. Go to red rock canyon instead.

    Cedar cove campground

    Beautiful place , with one big exception. The two lakes in the area were empty , not sure why . Would have been nice to know that the lakes were dried up, ?being drained . With that being said still a fun place with lots to do! The natural springs are awesome ! Clean bathrooms.

    Convenient to the Interstate and Amazingly Convenient to the Waterpark

    Small park that is just off I-40 and even closer to the water park but at least in the winter and spring months, check when the water park is open! During our visit it was only open on the weekends.

    The park itself is quite simple and tightly packed in. Sites are concrete and level. Could be cleaner.

    Water Zoo Campground

    Our plan: spend a few days at the campground and let our 12 yo son enjoy the Water Zoo.

    Our reality: son didn't want to enjoy the water zoo. 😫

    So we ended up taking him home to OKC and we came back. The campground is quiet besides the highway noise which is actually not that bad. The bathrooms were clean and a close walk. We had a full pull thru site which was nice . We also had a sweet view of the full moon and it was just amazing to sit and watch the open sky.

    The only negative thing I could say was that the grass was a little long and there were grass burrs everywhere! Other than that, the quick stay was peaceful and quiet.

    Awesome time

    Where we camped it was walking distance from the lake. The "campsite parentals" were awesome people. Our site didn't have a fire ring, so we had to ask, which was delayed in getting to us due to an accident on the lake, BUT when they did bring it down, the "campsite parentals" and the conservation agent stayed with us and kept our camping site lit with their cart lights to help with us putting up our tents at dark. So friendly and can't wait to visit again.

    Nice campground

    We stayed there overnight, it is conveniently located near I 40, the campground sits off the road and was not noisy. We would definitely stay there again.

    Fabulous Birthday Trip

    Stayed at the Sandy Beach Campground first weekend in August for my birthday. Enjoyed the spot we had; lots of room. Couple things to mention for improvement. Would like to see the trees maintained a bit better. In our campsite, there was a fallen tree and the standing trees were overgrown and had lots of dead branches. View of the lake was very obscured. Secondly, if you're arriving after sundown, it's pitch black and the signage into the Sandy Beach area is not good. We weren't familiar with that area and it took about an hour to find our spot and get settled. Other than that, it's awesome!

    Beautiful trails & wildlife

    I love Roman Nose State Park! Have been a few times this season. The trails are all very well marked, and the view at Inspiration Point is flawless (when there's not dam construction)! There are plenty of intersections so you don't have to do a super long trek if you don't want to. I love the little springs you can see, and spent a lot of time looking for live little mussels at the one pictured. On my last trip, I saw turtles, a copperhead, a little lizard and several hawks and other birds.

    This is certainly one of my more favorite spots. Stop in at Foggy Bottom Kitchen for a bite or a fried pie! I am vegetarian, and the chef was very accommodating, despite the actual menu not being too veggie friendly. Love that they go the extra mile!

    Cedar point campground-Foss state park

    Very nice, clean campground. About 12 pull through sites and a group site for tents. All spots had a level cement pad to park, picnic table and fire ring. Right on the water. Beautiful view. The campground was fairly empty when we stayed and it was very peaceful and secluded, although if the camp was full it wouldn't be very private. Great place to fishing or boat. There is a decent size marina with a restaurant in the park as well. There were a lot of bugs but maybe that's just the way OK is in July... Just bring bug spray!

    Our Go To Spot

    It’s not too far for us to get to on a weekend and yet far enough to say we got “away” The park is well maintained and rangers are very friendly and helpful. There are several areas that cater to your activities. Playgrounds, fishing docks etc. bathrooms have always been clean. Only last year we had a complaint, but it was nature’s fault- a plague of flies! The only time in years we’ve seen that. A trip to nearby Clinton Ace hardware took care of that! Lots of restaurants there as well, if you want a place to eat for a change. We’ve been there in April, May, June and July

    Foss State Park Campground

    Stayed at Buffalo Bend

    I don’t know if it’s an Oklahoma thing but the wind was crazy making tent camping a little rough. I’m not used to what’re gnat like bug they have so plan accordingly they are attracted mostly to light but swarm both day and night. I wear a hat with a net so they don’t bother me. We were visited in our sleep by raccoons trying to get in our tent. The bathrooms have 2 shower stalls, one has a curtain and one has a low door so people can see in while you shower. If you need water bring a short hose the water options are wide open or dripping. The spaces are a good size and it is a nice clean place. Cell service is very limited going in and out of no service.

    We will go back - how's that for a review !

    Slightly remote which makes it nice and quiet.  Good facilities and good parking for travel trailers - we had a 49 foot rig and the spots we picked worked out great.  Showers and bathrooms were very nice.  

    When we called to park to make a change, a very nice lady answered and took care of our issue.  There are a lot of campgrounds that leave you to deal with an internet site...not here...they helped us make a change as they new we were on the road traveling.  Very nice people that work here...

    Best Oklahoma day-trip

    Roman nose has all the amenities you could ask for: cabins, swimming pool, general store, paddle boats, mini golf, picnic spots, fishing, interesting trails, etc etc. but nothing and I mean NOTHING beats the cold and clear fresh water springs on the hot +100 degree days we get!

    I recommend bringing a lunch, but the stores got you covered on drinks, ice, snacks, basic items.

    Take a dip and explore the caves. The geology here is also fascinating and one picture I’m attaching features a branch I found at the park contains a huge beetle gallery!
