Great little spot!

About 20 minutes from Clayton, this spot is easy to get to with my 23ft rig with paved road the whole way. Plenty of space to turn around and park multiple rigs. It was quiet and felt safe. There are picnic tables, a fire ring, and a pit toilet.

Good overnight stop

Park in large parking lot with a pit bathroom about 40' in center of park. Picnic tables, but no water. Quiet, very dark- slept good.

Quiet, free, and a potty!

Stayed here on a road trip for the night. There are no lights, so bring your flashlight.

Quiet and easy

This is a very simple dirt parking lot with a pit toilet and some picnic tables. It is right off a road so can hear cars go by but still felt safe

Quiet and level

Large parking lot that is very quiet and level. The pit toilets were clean and the trash and recycling were helpful. We pulled in around 7:30pm on a Friday and there was one other van there.

Perfect one night sleep

Good signal Att, bathrooms, easy to get to, beautiful sun rise spot, and quite.

At first I was a little sketched out because we got there at 3 am and it was pretty crowded but we were way to sleepy to keep going. The sun rise was amazing!!! Perfect pit stop for sleepy drivers on an adventure.

For the bad things. Well what some people might say is bad, it’s a bit off of the main road that we were going, seems close to houses, and has no running water.

his small spot is a great overnight if you are caught between campgrounds or reservations. Felt is a small stop over but the lot can accommodate several rigs of any size. We have used this location twice now and we will return. You may stay one night and you will find a pit toilet, trash containers, picnic table, grill, fire ring.

It is on the fringe of the small town of Felt, OK on the Rita Blanca National Grassland. You are surrounded by the grassland or farm land. Catch your breath and enjoy your stay. There is a small wooded picnic area that is nicely maintained, very clean and mowed. It is set off the main highway and we have had very little road noise.

Great Spot!

Wonderful little pull-off spot! Vault toilet, picnic tables, trash and recycling bins. Parking is a large gravel lot-limit is one night. Only one other vehicle when we were there. Little to no Verizon service depending on where you stand. 🤣
