GuideFull hookups, concrete pad for $35 dollars a night. My husband had a meeting in Norman and we needed a place to stay for the night on our way to NM. In the city, but right next to a green space with disc golf, hiking and running trails. I got in a 6 mile run while he was at his meeting.
ScoutVery nice place
GuideVery nice campground and reservoir. Be self contained though because the restrooms and showers in the rv camping section leave plenty to be desired.
GuideI have fallen in love with Roman Nose. It quickly became one of my favorite tent camping spots. There are RV spots, cabins and a few teepees to choose from as well as an array of tent camping spots to choose from. The little store has EVERYTHING you could think of including firewood so no worries, if you have forgotten something they have your back! The creek is fantastic for a dip and if you’re a polar bear it is ice cold even in August. Lots of trails for hiking, a little pond to fish in. I was even able to hit a garage sale on one trip! If you’re looking for a pool they have that too!! The showers and potties are top notch. If you are an equestrian, they can accommodate you too.
ScoutCamping starts at $15 now for all sights. There are no curtains on the stalls but they are a clean and the bathrooms by the RVs have hot water.
GuideIt was so quiet. Clean, nice level paved RV parking spots. Beautiful views. Great hiking trails.
ScoutStaff is great. Park is clean and nice. My 2nd stay. Back of park is a little quieter.
GuideA little hard to find because the only sign is set in, about 100 feet from the road. Enter where the sign says ‘off road trails’ and then turn right on the road the encircles the large parking area. Lots of nice sites and almost all were empty on a June weeknight.
RangerThis is a very nice, almost overbuilt rv park with landscaping, water features, pull throughs and sprinklers. We needed close to rt. 66, it was very nice. Incredible bathrooms.
