Jellystone Park™ Keystone Lake

73 RV Sites, 21 Tent Sites

Jellystone Park Keystone Lake in Mannford, Oklahoma, offers 73 RV sites and 21 tent sites on a 26,000-acre reservoir, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 75 feet. A dedicated ADA-accessible back-in category joins premium, deluxe, and standard water-and-electric tiers, alongside a water park, beach, boat ramp, and boat docks. Seventy-three back-in sites span ADA-accessible back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, deluxe back-in water-and-electric 30/50-amp, premium back-in 30/50-amp, and standard back-in water-and-electric 30-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Making accessibility a named category rather than an afterthought is worth noting; confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Twenty-one tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a snack bar handle the practical side. A water park and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a beach, boat ramp, and boat docks opening the lake for boating, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, inflatable water toys, and fishing. A recreation center, craft room, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, golf cart rentals, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and pavilion fill the rest, with live music and planned activities. Keystone sits 45 minutes west of Tulsa behind the Arkansas River's dam. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Marval Resort

85 RV Sites, 71 Cabins, 13 Tent Sites, 3 Lodges

Marval Resort in Gore, Oklahoma, offers 85 RV sites, 74 cabin and lodge units, and 13 tent sites on Lake Tenkiller, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 90 feet. Site categories are named for what they offer — Park View, River View, and Premium River View, in both water-and-electric and full-hookup configurations — behind a gated entrance. Eighty-five sites run across 30-amp water-and-electric, 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric, 30 and 50-amp full-hookup with sewer, and Park View and River View variants of each, sized to 90 feet. Seventy-four cabins and lodge units carry a large share of the inventory, and 13 tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, propane fills and exchange, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. The recreation roster is extensive. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the summer, with a lake supporting boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming, and boat rentals on site. Mini-golf, a clubhouse, game room, craft room, arcade, ping pong, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, gaga ball, and horseshoes spread across the grounds, with golf cart rentals, walking trails, a playground, pavilion, and dog park besides. Live music and planned activities run through the season, and the property serves as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. Lake Tenkiller is one of Oklahoma's most pristine reservoirs — crystal-clear water, limestone bluffs, and the Cookson Hills' hardwood backdrop make it the most scenically distinctive lake in the eastern Oklahoma hill country, and one of the state's premier bass fisheries. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Lake Carl Blackwell

71 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 60 Tent Sites

Lake Carl Blackwell in Stillwater, Oklahoma, offers 71 full-hookup RV sites, nine cabins, and 60 tent sites on a 3,370-acre reservoir, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 80 feet. Beaver Cove and Huntsmeadow back-in and pull-through categories join a beach, boat ramp, disc golf course, and golf cart rentals. Seventy-one sites span Beaver Cove back-in, Beaver Cove pull-through, Huntsmeadow back-in, and Hunts Meadow pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with fire pits and picnic tables, sized to 80 feet. Naming the loops rather than numbering tiers makes the property easier to picture, and 80 feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Accessible sites are available. Nine cabins and 60 tent sites round out the lodging — a substantial tent inventory. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A beach and boat ramp open the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with a disc golf course, sports courts, volleyball, golf cart rentals, walking, hiking, biking, horseback riding, a playground, pavilion, and picnicking filling the rest. Birding across the reservoir is productive, and a golf course is nearby. The land is owned and operated by Oklahoma State University — the only major lake in the United States under direct university management. That institutional stewardship shows in how carefully the shoreline and facilities are kept, and Stillwater is minutes east. Summer lake season and OSU football weekends drive the sharpest demand. Reserve well ahead for both.

Soggy Bottom Trails Pub & Campground

56 RV Sites

The concept behind Soggy Bottom Trails Pub & Campground in Wanette, Oklahoma, is genuinely uncommon in the campground industry: 120 acres of trail-laced South Canadian River land with tent sites, full-hookup RV spots, and comfortable cabins — combined with a full on-site pub serving beer, wine, spirits, and a kitchen that actually delivers real food after a day of hiking. The result is a destination campground in the Pottawatomie County countryside that draws guests specifically for the combination of trail access, river setting, and on-site hospitality that most outdoor properties are unwilling or unable to provide. The property's 120 acres front the South Canadian River near the historic Byars-Wanette Railroad bridge, and the terrain is developed with multiple hiking and trail-riding routes that run through diverse riparian and upland terrain. RV sites include full hookup connections, tent sites are spread through natural areas of the grounds, and cabin accommodations provide solid-wall comfort for guests who want the trail-and-pub experience without sleeping in a tent. River access for swimming, wading, and fishing is available directly from the property, and the natural setting — trees, wildlife, and the South Canadian's sandy-bottomed character — provides the kind of outdoor immersion that the pub and cabins are specifically designed to celebrate. The South Canadian River in this stretch of central Oklahoma runs through a landscape of red clay banks, post oak and blackjack oak uplands, and the meandering floodplain character typical of Oklahoma's river systems. Wildlife viewing on the property includes white-tailed deer, wild turkey, and the diverse bird community supported by the riparian corridor, and the trail network designed specifically for Soggy Bottom guests gives the 120 acres an intentional outdoor structure that rewards multiple days of exploration rather than a single pass-through. The regional outdoor attractions extend the activity options well beyond the property itself. Chickasaw National Recreation Area in Sulphur — with its natural mineral springs, travertine creek swimming, Lake of the Arbuckles, and camping within a National Park Service site — is within driving range and provides a fascinating complement to the South Canadian River character of Soggy Bottom. Turner Falls Park in Davis, featuring Oklahoma's largest waterfall and swimming at the base of the falls, is another anchor destination in the broader south-central Oklahoma outdoor corridor. Lake Thunderbird State Park near Norman adds boating and fishing options to the regional day-trip roster. Soggy Bottom Trails Pub & Campground is an outdoor destination that operates most effectively as a multi-night stay — one night is barely enough to try the pub, walk the trails, and get a sense of the river. The spring and fall seasons deliver ideal trail conditions and the most comfortable temperatures for the full South Canadian River experience. Summer stays are active with river swimming and evening pub gatherings under the Oklahoma sky. Reserve cabins and premium RV sites well ahead for spring weekends, when trail riding and hiking demand across the region peaks and the property's distinctive character draws guests from across Oklahoma and beyond.

Route 62 Motor Resort

21 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 12 Tipis, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Route 62 Motor Resort in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, offers full-hookup RV sites, tent camping and cabin rentals with an outdoor pool, a hot tub, a clubhouse and mini-golf, fronting Historic Highway 62 on the main approach into town. Sites are big-rig friendly and take rigs up to 45 feet. A storm shelter on site is worth noting in a region that takes spring weather seriously. Full-hookup RV sites accommodate rigs to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Tent sites serve campers traveling light, and cabins provide enclosed lodging. A general store stocks camp basics, laundry, bathrooms and showers handle longer stays, and WiFi reaches the sites. The on-site storm shelter is a genuine practical feature for spring and early-summer stays in the Ozarks. On-site recreation covers both weather patterns. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the warm season, a clubhouse and mini-golf work regardless, and a community fire pit provides the evening gathering point. Shuffleboard, picnicking and stargazing fill out the property, and the resort's lake supports fishing, boating, swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding. Hiking and biking run from the grounds, and bird and wildlife watching is productive across the Ozark hardwood setting. Pets are welcome. The Eureka Springs Historic District is the most intact Victorian spa townscape in the mid-South — built on hillsides so steep no two streets cross at grade, with Basin Spring still flowing in the downtown park where the resort town began in 1879. Thorncrown Chapel sits four miles west on US-62, E. Fay Jones's 1980 glass-and-Douglas-fir chapel that the AIA ranked the fourth greatest American architectural work of the twentieth century. Beaver Lake's 28,000 acres lie 10 miles southeast. The resort operates year-round. Spring wildflowers in April and May and October foliage on the Ozark ridgelines are the two most spectacular windows. Reserve ahead for the Blues Festival, the opera season and the fall color peak.

Wanderlust RV Park & Cabins

88 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Wanderlust RV Park and Cabins in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, offers 88 RV sites and two cabins five minutes from downtown, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 80 feet. Ridge Row pull-through, premium pull-through, and water-and-electric categories join full-hookup back-in and pull-through tiers, with an outdoor pool and creek. Eighty-eight sites span back-in, back-in water-and-electric, pull-thru, pull-thru water-and-electric, pull-thru 30-amp, premium pull-thru, and Ridge Row pull-thru 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 80 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Check your tier before booking — the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Eighty feet is generous for the Ozark hills. Two cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a pavilion, creek, and biking filling the grounds and planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Eureka Springs is unlike anywhere else in Arkansas — a Victorian spa town built into the Ozark hillsides, where the entire downtown is on the National Register, the streets wind rather than grid, and the Basin Spring's healing-water heritage still shapes the town's character. Thorncrown Chapel, the Great Passion Play, and the Buffalo National River are all within reach. Spring and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in the Ozarks. Reserve well ahead for October weekends.

Dogwood Springs Campground

8 Cabins

At 621 East Court Street in Jasper, Arkansas—the Boone County seat in the Arkansas Ozarks where the Buffalo National River makes its most dramatic passage through the limestone bluffs and cedar-forest hollows of the Newton County reaches, and where the Boxley Valley elk herd and the Upper Buffalo's whitewater sections create the specific outdoor identity that makes the Jasper area the most spectacularly positioned small town in the Arkansas park system—Dogwood Springs Campground and Resort combines studio cabins and cottages, 30 and 50-amp full hookup RV sites, tent sites with on-site electricity, a seasonal swimming pool, and the trail and river access that makes the Buffalo National River corridor the most sought-after camping destination in the Arkansas Ozarks. The campground's position in Jasper—minutes from the National River, within the zone of elk sightings, and in the geographic heart of the Arkansas Scenic 7 Byway—makes the drive time from any site to the Buffalo's most beautiful accesses negligible. Studio cabins and studio cottages provide the most enclosed and equipped accommodation—with full kitchens, private bathrooms, climate control, and fireplace options that make cold-season Ozark visits comfortable and self-contained in a way that tent camping cannot match. Full hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections accommodate the RV population, and tent sites with on-site electrical service bridge the gap between primitive camping and full hookup, giving tent campers the electrical access for lighting, fans, and device charging that modern tent camping increasingly depends on. A seasonal swimming pool provides controlled aquatic recreation during the Ozark summer when the Buffalo River's flow can vary with rainfall patterns. Coin-operated laundry facilities, a covered pavilion with picnic tables, designated fire rings at select sites, and clean showers and bathrooms complete the practical amenity inventory. The Buffalo National River—the first national river designated in the United States system, protected by Congress in 1972—flows through one of the last undammed, free-flowing rivers in the lower 48 states with the specific water quality and natural character that undammed status preserves. The Upper Buffalo, accessible from Jasper, provides the most technically challenging and scenically dramatic whitewater paddling on the river system—running in late winter and early spring when seasonal rainfall fills the narrow canyon sections—while the lower sections provide the flatwater float experience that summer and fall visitors access by canoe and kayak. The Boxley Valley elk herd—one of the largest free-ranging elk herds in the eastern United States, reintroduced to the Arkansas Ozarks in 1981 from Rocky Mountain populations—inhabits the Boxley Valley and surrounding ridge terrain in numbers large enough that morning and evening wildlife viewing from the valley road has become a specific Jasper-area activity that visitors plan trips around. The fall rut in September and October brings bugling bulls to the valley floor in the same manner that Rocky Mountain elk are famous for, but accessible by car on a paved road rather than requiring a backcountry hiking permit. Rock climbing in the Ozarks, cave tours at the Cosmic Cavern and Mystic Caverns near Harrison, and elk-viewing photography constitute the activity calendar that gives the Newton County area its multi-day destination credibility. Dogwood Springs Campground and Resort is open year-round in the Arkansas Ozarks' four-season climate. The fall elk-viewing season and the spring whitewater season represent the two demand peaks most specific to the Jasper area. Reserve your cabin or RV site early for October elk rut weekends and let the Buffalo National River and the Arkansas Ozarks earn the wilderness reputation that one of the Midwest's finest river corridors deserves.

Bigfoot Adventure Luxury RV Resort

38 RV Sites

Bigfoot Adventure Luxury RV Resort in Broken Bow, OK, offers 38 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 75 feet. Sites come in three categories — standard 20/30/50-amp, pull-through 20/30/50-amp, and pondside 20/30/50-amp — plus ADA-accessible sites, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a fire pit. Every site takes all three amp services, so there's no adapter guesswork, and at 75 feet the pull-throughs handle long coaches without unhitching. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a general store cover the basics, and pets are welcome with a dog park on the grounds. The pond is the centerpiece for fishing, with walking trails through the property and horseshoes and corn hole for the evening. Hiking, biking, birding, golf, and wine tasting are all close by. Broken Bow sits in the Ouachita Mountain pine forest of McCurtain County, near Broken Bow Lake's 14,000 acres, Beavers Bend State Park, and the Hochatown district. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Pondside sites are the ones to ask for, and they go first on fall and spring weekends.

Big Mineral Resort & Marina

65 RV Sites, 4 Cabins

Big Mineral Resort and Marina in Sadler, Texas, offers 65 RV sites and four cabins on Lake Texoma with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Full-hookup, water-and-electric, and electric-only back-in categories join pull-through tiers at both amperages, with a marina, boat ramp, splash pad, and on-site fishing guides. Sixty-five sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30-amp water-and-electric, back-in 30-amp electric only, back-in 50-amp, pull-thru 30-amp, and pull-thru 50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 50 feet. Read the category carefully — the electric-only tier carries no water or sewer at the site, so plan tank capacity accordingly. Four cabins round out the lodging: three one-bedroom units sleeping four and a two-bedroom sleeping six. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The property is undergoing upgrades, with construction generally confined to weekdays. The marina anchors it, with boat docks, a boat ramp, boat rentals, and on-site fishing guides. A splash pad, outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, beach, fishing pier, clubhouse, pavilion, sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, biking, golf cart rentals, and a playground fill the rest. Lake Texoma is one of the largest man-made lakes in the United States, straddling the Texas-Oklahoma border in Grayson County. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.
