Nice
Nice small lake. Older bathrooms but kept clean. Lots of fishing boat traffic. Lake Ranger is very friendly and helpful. Atmosphere of being far away from town but 10 minutes get you to groceries.

Don't arrive late
The campgrounds are actually located on the southwest side of the lake in cove 1 and cove 3, make sure you don't arrive after 10pm as you can then only access cove 2 and cove 4. You can camp late hours in those areas, but the population in this area is very active at 2am and it just isn't comfortable. We ended up going someplace different because we usually arrive to campground pretty late.

Reasonable it’s hit and miss here.
This is a pretty decent little lake it’s fishing only they do have a small swimming area there is a lot of horse trails which you can also hike and lots of different camp sites around the lake it could use a little more maintenance but all in all it isn’t bad

Great place
Went camping this last weekend and we all had a great time. Love having the woods right behind us. Nice camp spots with full hookups and good water pressure. We will be back soon!
Beautiful quiet area.
This campground was very quiet and beautiful. The grounds are neat and well cared for. There are about 10 reservable sites with full hookups. Several sites with water and electric. Most pads are short. No skiing or motorboats allowed. Restrooms need some work and only cold water available for showers.
Nice and quiet
Nice campground. Quiet lake as only fiahing boats, kayaks, canoes, etc. allowed. Loved the sites. We had a group and camped around pavilion 2. Playground was nearby as were bathrooms. Bathrooms were passable, but not well kept. We will definitely camp there again.

Close to home.
I visit this lake regularly. It is a city run lake. It is a good lake for kayaking, fishing and swimming. It has become popular for kayaking.
It has RV campsites, tent campsites and equestrian campsites. The campsites are 1st come.
It has 3 boat ramps, 2 covered fishing docks. It has a nice swimming area and even on the hottest days the water feels good because it is a sping fed lake.
It has 3 pavilions. I pavilion has an air conditioned building that you can rent for gatherings.
It has 3 restrooms with showers. The restrooms tend to get messy because it is a city lake with only 1 worker/ranger who has to do everything.
The ranger is very nice and helpful but is always busy. He keeps a good eye on things and the gates are locked everynight.
Sunrise is beautiful and so are the stars. There are many geese on this lake, they have there own island where they hatch their babies every year. Lots of racoons and a couple foxes. At night you really hear a lot of coyotes and owls. It is laid back and peaceful.
The lake is 2 miles from one end to the other with 4 coves and around 15 miles of shoreline. No jet skiing or water skiing.

Sportsmans make located on seminole Oklahoma as very clean. Very family friendly. Even the other vsitors were very kind. The park ranger stopped and played with my children telling them about the geese and where good fishing spots were. Overall it was quiet and relaxing and can't wait for our next trip.
