Best Equestrian Camping near Woodward, OK

Everything the previous reviewer said is true. The south end is known for the younger party crowd. So if cornhole, music, and beer is your thing, that’s the place to be. The southern boat ramps on the west side are preferred during the normal south winds. The main ramp on the northwest side has a floating dock which is a plus for loading the less agile. Wear water shoes while in the water. Too many gashed feet from broken bottles and freshwater mussel shells.  The town of Woodward is about 15 minutes away and has a Walmart, couple each of farm/ranch supply, hardware, and grocery stores. For the religious, a unique experience would be the Cowboy Church Sunday service.

This is a really great park in Major County, Oklahoma. Very close to other natural sites like, Little Sahara and the Gloss (Glass) Mountains. We prefer tent camping in the canyon area, but be forewarned that it can be cold at night. The tour is enjoyable, and 3 species of bat can be seen frequently. All and all a great little park.

This was our first time staying in an Oklahoma State park. We had a great site (#1). Very level, near the bathhouse and cave entrance. I could only get cold water in the shower. That was invigorating! I asked at the ranger station and they told me how to work the shower handle. I went back the next day and same thing, no hot water! Other than that it’s a great campground.

Stayed one night so didn't get a chance to explore the park much.  But the sites were nice and spacious.  Park was also nice and right by a lake - they had quite a few campers with boats on their sites so appears to have additional parking to accommodate watercraft in some cases.

There are multiple campgrounds available and a lot of spots. Bathrooms are strangely located and the put toilets are not cleaned. I was the only camper here and no water and no bathrooms due to winter.

Well maintained sites. Amazing swimming area. Helpful staff. Holiday's are busy

No store on site

The south rv spots can get rowdy but they are improving and patrolling the area more frequently.

If you have a boat the sandbars are a great place to stop and let the kids play safely in the water

Decided to try this since it was close to home. Even though the park said so many sites were reserved, it was almost empty. I guess people reserve the week to make sure they get a place for weekends? Our site was good, not too much sun beating on us and the trees shaded the site well. Good for light biking on pavement or walking Sites seem to be well maintained. It was quiet and peaceful and that’s what we wanted. Our only complaint which isn’t the camps fault is there were so many bees getting in our faces and ears. But when the wind blew they kinda left too. The bathrooms weren’t the very best, but clean. Private showers with dressing area. Hot water… push button style spigot.

great tent site with firepit and covered picnic table. $17 for tent site

We only stayed 1 night, but it was enjoyable. Park is a little dated, but clean.

clean sites, Clean bathrooms, Affordable. Good sells service for T-Mobile. Friendly staff. Beautiful stock lake. Main town is less than 15 miles away with pretty much anything you need.

Nice park but awful showers some don’t spray at all and no hot water, park has lots to offer for entertainment!

We had a large area that was great for tents and hammocks. Fire pits had cooking services, more than one picnic table, good restrooms.

Tent site bath house out of commission. Wal-Mart is 40miles away, get what ever you need before you get there.

Stayed here for a couple of days while traveling to Colorado with friends. The caverns where very interesting as well as the trails around the campground. You could see alabaster everywhere, beautifully exposed. The area appears to be a Dark Sky Area with little artificial light, so the night sky was brilliant!

The campground hosts were very friendly and informative. I would stop here again if my route takes me that way.

Went here spontaneously after recommendation from someone in a diner. Beautiful caverns, definitely do the tours and dress for cool temps, slippery rocks. Awesome bats when we visited years ago, maybe not anymore due to white nose disease :( Lovely trees and canyon. Campground is small but sites are very nice and clean. Rangers were especially nice with lots of geology/nature info in the office.

Definitely take a cave tour while visiting, but also explore the other trails in the park through the canyon. There are a few different camping locations, we stayed farthest from the visitor center and hiking trails. You can walk to the caves from any of the campgrounds. No shade at the sites but very pretty. Simple sites. Clean, quiet, peaceful. Next time we will do the cave camping option where you get to say inside the cave!

We camped here for a weekend. There was no fire pits for the rv sites. The sites were super close together. The bathrooms were really clean but the showers were a little gross and there was no hot water for them. The main reason we came were for the caverns and despite there being a sign and information online that the cavern would be open, they were still closed because of the Rona.

Despite that, the staff was nice and the trails were beautiful. Just didn’t get to see the caves.

Or have a fire....

11 sites. So be sure to reserve a spot if you need to stay for the night. We were traveling through to CO and stopped for 2 nights. Electric boxes are newer and water pressure was good. Dump station available. The second day we took the cave tour. Thought we were going to have a tour to ourselves. Instead we dealt with others. Some who were a bit snippy about the van (vs. Tram) ride back. I enjoyed the cave very much. Beautiful displays of gypsum looking sleek as glass. No pictures allowed in the caverns. No smoking, vaping, food or bottled water either. Wear decent shoes due to slick, muddy spots and a jacket. It gets a bit chilly inside.

There was several things of interest if you like geology. RV sites were easy to get into. Quiet place to stop. Only complaint is the showers require quarters to operate (they don’t charge for day use) was the answer we were given when we asked about it.

We really enjoyed the cave tour. A very knowledgeable guide took us through the cave and showed us all the cave features. The cave tour is a great idea in the heat of the summer since it’s nice and cool down there. We hiked a couple of the trails. There were some strenuous parts but the scenery is worth it. The RV sites looked nice but I don’t think I’d want to tent camp here. The tent camping site is on a slope and there doesn’t really seem to be a good place to pitch a tent. Great for a day trip though.

Campgrounds are clean and well kept up. Bathrooms aren't bad. There's an area in the canyon area and one above that's more for RV's (they have nice showers in that area, not free showers).

The tent camping area was very nice and clean. Lots of awesome trails.

I took my little cousins here and they had a blast. It was really cool when you go to go in the caves. The caves are really slippery so I should have wore my hiking boots instead to sandals. The tour was amazing and was only 10 dollars. There are campsite though we did not camp here. The restrooms were really clean and I would definitely recommend coming here

Small park with a little bit rough hiking trails but if you are into caves, I think this is a great place for you. Two campgrounds...one for RVs and one for more primitive camping. Both are nice.

Many years ago, I decided I wanted a real adventure, so I heard Alabaster Caverns would let you sleep in a cave. I don't know if they still do it, but it was a wild adventure. You have to hike down into the canyon to a make-shift campsite near a cave opening. There was a table, a fire pit off to the side, and a little obstacle course of tree limbs to get to the cave mouth that overlooked a straight drop to the ground. Inside the cave were rocks flattened on the top to be made to be beds. They are close to the cave ceiling (important). In the back of the cave was a little waterfall. Now, while you are lying down, yes, bats can come in and out. It's cool. They aren't interested in you. It was a great adventure.
