Located just 25 miles northeast of Lawton, the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge was established in 1901 to help preserve and provide habitat for native bison, Rocky Mountain elk, white-tailed deer, and wild turkeys. It is one of the oldest wildlife refuges in the United States, and consists of nearly 60,000 acres of natural grasslands, small lakes and river bottoms. Today, it is home to more than 50 species of mammals, 240 varieties of birds, 100 reptiles, amphibians and fish, and more than 800 types of plants. Visitors are invited to discover and observe many of these unique species by exploring the refuge’s Visitor Center and 15 miles of nature walks and hiking trails. There are also interpretive programs and guided tours available for learning about everything from the refuge’s wildflowers to its seasonal eagle population.
Visitors to the refuge are invited to stay in the Doris Campground, located near Quanah Parker Lake. This year-round campground offers a total of 90 campsites, ranging from drive-in tent and RV sites with electrical hookups, to more primitive, walk-in tent sites. There are also two group campsites, and a few ADA accessible sites. Sites are mostly wooded, and equipped with picnic tables, fire pits and cooking grills. Amenities include both flush and vault toilets, a shower building, water faucets, and waste receptacles; a dump station is available near the campground entrance. Backcountry camping is available in the Charons Garden Wilderness Area. Dogs are welcome on the refuge, but must remain leashed.

It's a good little spot on the edge of town to go eat lunch, do some thinking, or fish for fun. Around the holidays it lights up and is just an all around good place to go for free
Guide
First stop on this tour from Dallas TX to New Mexico and back
I had choosen this place out of location ,it has a walmart in walking distance.
We got delayed from start of pickup our RV and got here a lot later then we had intended, so I wrote the owner a message and she answered rapid how to find it and where to find our paperwork.
We found the spot and got settled and went into bathrooms that was the most clean bathroom I have ever seen in a campground.
Slept a good night sleep and had some things we needed to fix on the RV rental and here the owner is very happy and good to help out and had the parts we needed.
And then we was off again

Doris CG, Wichita Mnts, OK: This park was a pleasant surprise. The hiking was splendid and much better than expected. The visitor center deserves at least an hour of time. Fabulous. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good

Legend
Great spot to see some wild life and check out the Witicha mountains.
LegendDoris is in the middle of Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge, there is zero cell phone service but we got our Starlink to work perfectly. We stayed in 40c which had no hookups but was an enormous site with lots of privacy. Fairly level site, concrete table, huge fire pit and grill. Spots are very well maintained and this site backs up to Lake Quanah Parker. Little Baldy trail can be hiked directly from the campground. New shower and bathroom house.
100% will be back. Fantastic educational visitors center. You MUST drive up Mt Scott but it’s scary. Wonderful short hikes.
Free roaming bison, longhorns, wild Turkey, etc.
Guide
Great place to stay! We were here for 3 nights, and there was a ton of activities and things for kids to do. The sites are concrete pads (a little off level) with full hookups and nice grass. Would definitely come back here again.
LegendCamped in site 36, loop C, mid-May. Large campsite; lots of trees. Short path behind site leafs to Quanah Parker Lake. No connections. Water pump nearby; water was good quality. Restroom/shower house located at beginning of loop. Other restrooms were closed for renovation. The restroom/shower house is old & needs updating. Campsite was clean. Firewood available near campground entrance. Excellent hiking opportunities nearby. Separation between sites in this loop is good but little privacy. Campground host was friendly & helpful. Enjoyed staying in this old campground & exploring the refuge. Little to no AT&T and T-Mobile service.
Guide
Our family was really pleased with this campground. The sites are paved and extremely well maintained with mowed lawns. The trail systems are super convenient. Would definitely stay again!
LegendVery quiet and peaceful park
GuideVery nice national park. Very clean. Lots of animals to see. Gentlemen at the gate was very knowledgeable and had all of the information about the park.
TravelerDoris Campground is a cool little campground nestled in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. There are multiple areas to camp at Doris. The easiest way to reserve a site is to goto Recreation.gov and book online (This may be the only way, a lot about the booking process has changed in the last few years) There are two main campground areas with decently spaced but also high site density just past the information hut / entrance to the campground. A is immediately on the right after the entrance, it's a non electric loop and I believe (C?) is on the left just after the A loop with a loop of electric sites. There are also primitive campsites for tents further down the road and lake sites, as well as some more isolated sites spread throughout the campground and group camping areas. There are quite a few trees in the campground, but you can also see the sky fairly well. There are restroom buildings scattered throughout the campground and several shower areas. The campsites are almost all back in if you have a rig. There is zero cell phone reception, even with a booster. Many of the rig campsites have some sort of bench / picnic table and fire rings. There is a ton of wildlife in the area, and it is very peaceful.
Guide
Campground is well maintained. The folks at the desk are very polite and helpful. We got a spot right next to the pool which was nice.
TravelerFirewood is available. Clean campsites.
TravelerNice campground. Good shade, large lots with cement picnic table, fire pit, and charcoal grill. We did not have electric or water at our unit but we were near the bathrooms/showers. Great to be right in the heart of the wildlife refuge. Easy access to all of the trailheads by car. Saw a ton of wildlife including all of the big game. The maps of the refuge aren’t all that great they could definitely be updated. Would definitely stay here again.
ScoutOne night stay passing through, 34 ft fiver. Friendly folks that show you to your spot. good Wi-Fi (rare). right next to a super wal-mart, less than 5 min walk, which is very handy. Large and clean bath / shower house. Pool. Lots of Long term folks here. The drive needs work, huge potholes, go slow for more than 1 reason. Highly recommended.
RangerWe stayed here in June. The grounds were beautiful, there were mature trees. Bathrooms and swimming pool very clean, and the pond and bridge were a joy for our kids, as well as the geese that were stopping there. Definitely enjoyed our time there!
GuideWe had a great couple of days camping here. Campground was quiet and shaded, sites were decently spread out each with table and fire ring, bathroom/shower house could use some TLC - locks on stalls were broken, floor pooled with shower water, showers good enough but no temp control - one was scalding hot, 2 were cool (which was nice in near 100 degree heat), toilets worked. The area is gorgeous with plenty of trails to explore, vistas to enjoy and waters to fish.
GuideThis campground is very nice. Well laid out campsites. Man-made lake.
GuideThe area is quite pretty, but the campground is worn down and needs maintenance. Our picnic table and bench were both cracked and crumbling. The fire pit in 19 needed replacing. The pit toilets near loop C did not have doors and were totally filled up. The showers were hot and there was always toilet paper. We arrived Saturday afternoon and left Tuesday and the bathroom was never cleaned...not the floor, toilets, sink or showers. Best to bring shower shoes.
Some ran their generators all night. Never saw the camp host.
Nothing marked in bathroom if that water was safe or not. The outside faucets were marked as boil notice.
I would not return to this campground.
LegendLake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area, Fort Sill, OK
Cabin 3 (both late June and mid-October)
Lake Elmer Thomas(LETRA) is a 334 acre lake located on Fort Sill in Comanche County, Oklahoma. LETRA offers a pretty nice location for recreating. Offering quite a bit for families in a limited space. •A nice beach and cordoned swim area, complete with restrooms and shower house(11a-7p)…lifeguards •Sand volleyball court •Watersport rentals: paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, pontoon boat •Mini golf course •Disc golf course •RV/Camper area •Rustic rental cabins •Random primitive tent camping •Fishing •Nearby off-base hiking(Mount Scott and the Medicine Park Wildlife Refuge) •Bicycling-ample quiet, paved road opportunities but surprisingly limited off road options
Tent Camping: there are no specifically designated loop or numbered site tent areas. Tenters are permitted to camp all along the lake’s edge in the grassy area. There are a few picnic tables and elevated charcoal grills(no ground fires permitted), so you may have to do without. There are also a few picnic tables under shelters, but half are in a state of disrepair and caution-taped off. Tenters cannot set up tents within the cabin rental inner circle.
The modern facility restrooms are across from the playground as you enter the cabin rental peninsula. Tent campers are able to utilize the shower house/restrooms in the RV/Camper section, as well as the beach areas during open hours. There is no ground cover to separate one tent from the next…all can be seen and heard.
RV/Camper Sites: big rigs are lined up side by side in a separate gravel loop immediately to the left of the entrance. Sites have water and electric hookups. The nicest shower house/restroom is located there. There is a small patch of grass between sites, picnic table and elevated charcoal grill. These sites are closest to the entrance, beach area, watersport rental and campground activities.
Cabin Rentals: log home rentals are on a small peninsula with great views of Mount Scott and Lake Elmer Thomas. At the time of this review, you must bring your own bedding linens/blankets, towels, etc. I would also recommend packing extra eating utensils, condiments and any other items that you would take camping. We rented Cabin 3, which the website says will sleep 4…inaccurate. One full size bed and a small futon will sleep two average-sized adults and one small child in marginal comfort. The table only provides two chairs, not four for two not four. I would subtract 1-2 persons on the cabins unless you count floor space. Cabin 3 was$80 nightly.
Painted turtles are in abundance around the lake, as are smallish ‘fist-sized’ tarantulas. Bicycling the Artillary Range perimeter roadways on base, coyote dash across in early morning hours. Note: you are on a military base, so there are a number of restrictions that you need to be aware of and abide by.
Additionally, the campground is positioned along the northern side of the Artillery range. Yes, you will see and hear C-Ram’s lighting up the sky randomly during the day and night hours, as well as other ordinance. I enjoyed the display and out-of-the-ordinary disruption. Think unanticipated fireworks.
LegendDoris Campground, Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, OK
Site 26
Only a random artillery boom was heard in the distance.
Prairie dog villages are a great way to spend some time enjoying their comedic antics and tight family structure.
Trails abound, both from within the campground and nearby. We walked a few in late afternoon and the bull elk bugled relentlessly…obvious signs of rut. We did not realize how close to a lone bison we passed until we heard a noise and looked back. How a large beast could go unnoticed in the low scrub was amazing.
We were fortunate to secure a midweek campsite but the weekend was sold out.
Temps were in the high 40’s overnight but climbed during the day to 70’s with a beautiful breeze.
The Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge Visitors Center was still closed. Both in June and October it was closed with varying explanations why. If you go onto FWS.gov it still has it closed from November 2015-January 2016…so that certainly isn’t current.
Would I camp here again? Yes, However, I will research when school kids have Fall Break and avoid that weekend because it does sell completely out.
GuideCheck-in went smoothly and when we asked if we could make some copies for one of our games to keep score on, Theresa was more than accommodating! Very clean park. Danielle showed us to our spot and was very helpful answering questions we had.
GuideDog park was best part. Affordable too. Level sites. Spacious pads. River was yuck. Pond was yuck.
ScoutGreat maiden voyage, had everything we needed. Office staff very helpful.
RangerWe stayed just one night but it was a nice park with a lot of areas around the lake for the kids to play.
Traveler
I can’t say enough good things about this place. The employees are so incredibly kind, you can tell they love what they do. The breakfast from the cafe was great! The general store had everything you can think of and toys for the kids with affordable prices! From animals to a water course on the lake, this place has literally EVERYTHING you can possibly think of. 3 pools, an AMAZING splash pad for the kids and plenty of family activities for all ages. If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would. Everything was very clean and well kept. We did a pull through RV spot for our 40ft tiffin. Will definitely visit again next road trip. Exceeded expectations! 🤩
LegendThe campground has 66 sites but is laid out in such a way that you have a lot of privacy. The sites near the water are electric only, and the inland sites are water electric. No sewer sites. Most of the sites are in smaller sections of 6 sites, in a circle with nice grass and a lot of foliage in between. Very private.
Nice covered picnic tables. Our site was close to level, only had to use leveler blocks under one wheel. The restrooms are very dated but clean, with 2 showers.
