Beautiful State Park!! Quiet and well maintained. Road in is steep, but we had no problems in our 35' class A and towing. Cell phone and computer aircard (Verizon) reception was really iffy. Signals fluctuated constantly. We were able to get a TV Sat. signal without any problems. Our pull thru site (there are 10) was level and we had no problems getting our slides out. Great water pressure and no problems with electric. NO State Park signs for turn off on the freeway or on the road to the park. Use GPS if you've got it. Really enjoyed the park and had a great nights sleep! We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is an oasis on the prairie but with a challenging access road. It is located down in a canyon, 5.5 miles south of the Interstate on U.S. 281. The fee we paid included the site and an electric and water hookup. We didn’t have to pay a park day-use fee in order to camp. This campground gets a rather low rating from me but that is largely due to the below average attraction of the region as well as my perception that the campground has below average accessibility for big rigs. This small state park is interesting enough but there really isn’t anything else of interest in the region. The best thing going for the campground is that it is not too far off of the Interstate. When we arrived, there were quite a few other campers there as well as a huge party in progress at one of the picnic shelters. The office was already closed for the evening and we just proceeded down into the canyon to pick out a site for ourselves. While we were eating dinner, a park employee showed up and collected the fee. There was no guidance at the office location with regard to after-hours arrival but the fee taker said we did right by helping ourselves to a site. There is really no reservation system for Oklahoma State Park campgrounds. The party in progress may have been the cause of the sorry state of the sanitary facilities but I suspect that their maintenance is always a low priority. The facilities were worn out but we were happy to have warm showers and the condition of the sanitary facilities was hardly insurmountable (and such details are not factored into my numerical ratings). The park is above average for government operated facilities in that it offers showers (which are included in the site price) and hookups. Unusually hard rains in prior weeks had spread quite a bit of red clay throughout the canyon. There didn’t appear to have been much effort to try and clean it off the park roads and pathways. The park headquarters and campground office is up on the canyon rim and features a small gift shop but does not stock any supplies of interest to campers. The park staff was friendly but otherwise average. The canyon is a green and pleasant oasis compared to the prairies above. It features some hiking trails and rare plants. While we saw large rigs camped down there, be advised that the access road down into the canyon is very steep and winding. I had to put our F-250 in the creeper gear to get us back out. I feel that other reviewers, here, have understated the challenge for big rigs. I've seen campgrounds pilloried in reviews for much less challenging access. Once you get down there, it is pretty spacious and the road layout is easy enough to negotiate. You might want to consider leaving any ‘toads’ in the parking area up on the rim to shorten your ‘train’. If I found myself needing a campsite while in the vicinity of this park, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

This was a very nice park for a couple of nights stay. The restrooms/showers were 1/2 mile from the site we chose so we didn't use them but they seemed clean enough although dated. Pool and concessions were closed when we were there. Seems to be a very busy local park with many, many families and scouts. We enjoyed it mid-week and had no problem with the steep, but short, road into the canyon. We have a 30 ft. Class A and would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
