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.
