"What a great place to camp in Oklahoma! The campground was well maintained, the bathrooms were spotless, and the variety of trails was endless."
"In June, the road entered under a green canopy, very unlike the hours of driving through Oklahoma it took to get here. It is a very well manicured place."
$18 - $184 / night
"The town of Woodward is about 15 minutes away and has a Walmart, couple each of farm/ranch supply, hardware, and grocery stores."
"Decided to try this since it was close to home. Even though the park said so many sites were reserved, it was almost empty."
"This is a really great park in Major County, Oklahoma. Very close to other natural sites like, Little Sahara and the Gloss (Glass) Mountains."
"Definitely take a cave tour while visiting, but also explore the other trails in the park through the canyon."
"GPS is dead on for the location. Look for a turn in to the right."
"It's such a unique park - you don't get to walk around miles of sandunes every day! The amenities were fine, the stars were amazing, and it was a nice quiet evening."
$18 - $40 / night

TravelerWhat a great place to camp in Oklahoma! The campground was well maintained, the bathrooms were spotless, and the variety of trails was endless. I stayed here just for the night and a short hike the next morning before continuing to Colorado, and if I had not been on a tight schedule I would have stayed longer! They have several options for camping including group sites, RV hookups, and cabins, playgrounds for the kids, a pool with concessions, and lots of hiking and biking options. The rangers were very friendly and informative, giving me lots of great information, not just about this park, but all Oklahoma State Parks. They were very dog friendly and mine enjoyed the stay as well, with lots of things to sniff and see. Dogs are allowed on all trails and inside most buildings as long as they are on a 10 foot leash.
RangerComing in from the east, entering this area is like finding an oasis in the sprawling desert. In June, the road entered under a green canopy, very unlike the hours of driving through Oklahoma it took to get here. It is a very well manicured place.
There are a couple camping areas, and we ended up in the Whitetail Campground, which had the most tent sites. There are lots of RV sites here and in the other areas. Within minutes of arriving, the park ranger came over to see we payed for the site online, then cheerfully left us to it.
If you can, choose site A in the Whitetail area. It is shaded, spacious and the most private. It was a very hot day, but the shade and breeze made the experience quite lovely. There is a VERY short, flat, hiking trail around this campground. There is also a nearby pool which is open in the afternoon, and charges a few dollars to swim. We unfortunately didn't visit the actual spring, so I'm not sure how that is.
The bathrooms here are pretty nice. One shower and two stalls in the men's room. Dividing walls are just a little short. Very clean though!
At nightfall, we were harassed by a couple raccoons, but they kept their distance and retreated after we repeatedly threw some stones and made loud noises towards them. But they were persistent at first, so just keep a lookout for them. We saw one deer here, and found a couple ticks, so bring your bug spray!
Glass Mountain is the nearby attraction a drive away, and nearby Woodward should have just about everything you need to stock up.
LegendWhen driving through this section of Oklahoma I was pleasantly surprised to have found this FREE campsite. The area looks pretty flat with only rolling hills then you take a turn and the land really opens up here with the lake and the views are quite impressive for this region.
I stopped in on a very windy day and the water was to choppy to have been any good for recreation despite having a fishing pier and boat ramp. It was even a bit strong to enjoy exploring the trail that was on the far side of camp. I checked out the upper area of the grounds near the day use area and tent camping area then made my way to the pull in sites located a bit before the main lake area, these were much more sheltered from the winds and pleasant.
Each site had access to picnic tables, fire rings and lantern hooks in this area although the layout itself was still very reminiscent of a tent site with parking then open spaces for placement. You couldn't pull in next to the tables. Parking varied with some places appearing much more level than others.
The red dirt of Oklahoma transfers everywhere I will say that, so if you are visiting when it is muddy, be prepared to be tracking it inside your rig or your tent. It does stain so keep that in mind!
For me this ended up being a great place to enjoy a night in the quiet, no noise and very few people in the day use or camp area. It was well maintained, the restrooms were clean vault toilets and I noticed that there were a few centrally located trash cans available.
ScoutEverything 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.
GuideThis 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.
RangerThis 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.

The grass along the entrance is mowed and looks great with the back drop of the Oklahoma grassland. The road in is paved and also in the campground. You will find a picnic table, fire ring, pedestal grill, trash, pit toilet. Nice mature trees that offer a lot of shade. Large parking area where you can park an RV or grassy area for a tent. I think this would fill up quick during the hunting season. Nice small lake or large pond however you look at it. Looks great for fishing.

RangerWe spent a lovely three nights here, we were the only ones camping although a huge family did come and have a sprawling Easter picnic on one of the days. Camping area is pretty bootleg but has everything you need, just watch out for mice and ticks. I was thrilled to find somewhere so quiet that had pit toilets and water and walking trails, and our dogs were happy about a campsite where no one else was around.
LegendWe came here for the Labor Day weekend and it did not disappoint. Not a “thrills a minute” park. However, if you enjoy hiking, biking, relaxing or small lake fishing this is the place. We stayed in the full hook up section in the White Tail portion of the park. Bathrooms and showers very clean. Heavily patrolled by the park ranger. Lots of stickers in the grass so be mindful when you walk your dog.
