"Off the highway a few miles but woeth the drive."
"Nicely mowed entrance and the campsites looked great. The grasslands are well defined by the mowing. Looks great. Campsites are just short distance from the main road."
"We were able to overnight in the parking lot next to the lake which was nice. There were no “rules” so generators were running all night which was a bummer."
"The site backs up to a pretty interpretive trail with a small pond, though our dog had to be carried in his pack because of all of the stickers."
"A nicely maintained free public camping & recreation area on a small lake in the Black Kettle and McClellan Creek National Grasslands."
"It is smaller lake, some ducks and geese. Has a few awnings with tables and grills and fire rings. Plenty of wood from the piles surrounding the site. It has a toilet vault. No running water."
$27 - $32 / night
"Located on one of the last remaining stretched of Route 66 in Texas. This is a nice campground just outside of Shamrock TX, on the panhandle, about 10 miles from the Oklahoma line."
"Only 5minutes away from the town of Shamrock, TX which has multiple fuel options, grocery market and ace hardware. They have some cute shops too."
"2 days maximum stay, you have to drive a few blocks to the police station and ask permission . They will ask you for your ID and License plate number and just write it down on a log."
GuideIt is smaller lake, some ducks and geese. Has a few awnings with tables and grills and fire rings. Plenty of wood from the piles surrounding the site. It has a toilet vault. No running water. The time I am here I only saw one guy fishing. No campers. At least yet. More primitive camping on opposite side of the lake.
TravelerPlace was organized, clean bathrooms that were lovely. Sites spaced decently with a bit of shade. Loved the animals.
TravelerBeautiful spot on way to Tulsa. Quiet. Small campground so recommend arriving early if big group. Clean bathrooms. Shady picnics tables. Car or tent camping ok!
LegendNot great, but not bad. It felt more like a picnic area than a place to camp... but it worked for a quick overnight while passing through.
GuideA nicely maintained free public camping & recreation area on a small lake in the Black Kettle and McClellan Creek National Grasslands. There are tables in various locations between the parking area and the lake. Some tables are next to the parking area. There are no signs prohibiting car camping. I stayed in my van in the parking area at night and utilized a fire pit and table next to the parking area. It was peaceful. I first attempted the dispersed area across the lake and though it seems alot more interesting .. the roads were muddy deep sandy dirt in some areas and my van seems to get stuck easily. Nothing amazing other than it's a usfs campgrounds and it's still free !
GuideI stayed here in November originally and it "seemed" like a hunting camp (but isn't). You can stay for 14 days. Open all year. Bathrooms, drinking water, and trash. The area is stunning. I didn't have cell reception until I drove out onto the main road (sos only w/ unboosted att). Last time I was here I did get service in the park after resetting the network. There's a lake, boat launch, and walking trail (didn't use during hunting season). Soooo beautiful.
GuideThe shower was cold and lacked water pressure but besides that it’s a nice place, there was trash at my cite, run down older park but that’s just this area. Nice place to visit if ur passing through
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.
RangerNice owners/managers, place is a little dated, but relatively clean. Highway noise is a constant. Has storm shelters available when needed. Gravel pull-throughs, mostly level.
