Nice camp ground

Camping out on the peninsula (site numbers upper 20’s to 30’s), the sites are nicely spaced, have concrete pads - which is uncommon on Lake Texoma - and beautiful views. If you camp here, though, be fully prepared to battle tons of ants. This might have been my favorite campground if it weren’t for the ants. It might not be so bad if you immediately treat around your camper while setting up, but we didn’t and have been trying to get them out of our camper our whole camp trip. We were in site 30.

Camping on reservoir

Peninsula juts out into water with lovely views of sunrise & sunset. Small campground with clean and nice but simple facilities. Run by US Army Corps of Engineers but anyone can stay here. Came here for birding in nearby wildlife refuges and wasn’t disappointed.
