Okmulgee Lake & Recreation Area

Camp host, park ranger checked on me 2x very friendly. Had a great overnight getaway. The water, "outdoor concert" nature provided & peaceful evening & morning were healing. Oak leaf trail offered great views of lake. Showers require quarters didn't know that, so heads up!

This is the best lake within driving distance from the Tulsa Metro area. Not only the beautiful landscape but the water is much cleaner than that of some of the other Oklahoma lake's. The offer good fishing, swimming, boating and a great team that keeps this place beautiful and awesome even in the dog days of summer. Great job Okmulgee!

Beautiful area. The camp host was friendly and helpful, even bringing us a hammer to get our tent stakes in the ground and driving me up to his spot in his golf cart to get firewood and ice and back to our spot. Swim area has a steep concrete ramp that can get slippery, but we didn't have any problems with our water shoes. $12/night, $5/8 pieces of wood, $3 bag ice.

One of the better scenic areas. This place has it all. I'm so happy my brother found this place while working in the area. RV sites, good restrooms, fishing, swimming, hiking, history, several lighted boat ramps, wonderful photos. There is a gift shop/store near the scenic overlook. Just be careful because there are no barriers or guard rails. If you take young kiddos or pets be sure to watch their steps closely.

Great place to camp. It was very peaceful and clean. The restrooms appeared to be cleaned daily which is always great. The staff came by to collect and was very friendly and professional. I stayed at hickory point in the first spot on the left when you pull in and had access right to the water. As you can see in the pictures the rocks along the shore line were a great place to stand and fish from.

Great water for skiing super nice lake great fishing and camping sites. And now there are fully loaded cabins to rent that are amazing

We always love going here to swim or fish. Has a designated swimming area with bathrooms and boat dock. There is also a fishing dock on the other side of the boat dock. Never have extreme issues with the wildlife. Turtles are curious, but we have never had one attack. There are no grilling areas at this swimming area, but if you go further into the park, there is camping, grilling, playground, and showers. Great place to bring the whole family.

Camping is first come, first serve, but the staff of friendly and the view is gorgeous. Come to see stars and listen to wild birds

It's always so peaceful and beautiful. We watch the boats race by and the fisherman fishing... everyone we meet is always nice

Just a week day on the spur drive to Okmulgee Lake. Gorgeous lake and views and looking forward to camping there this year.

Great place to get away from the crowds and enjoy a peaceful day fishing, hiking, or picnicking. Shelters are available for rental. There is a swimming area, boat ramp, and fishing dock. Campground also on the premises with public restrooms. There is also a dam which is a great place to stop and take pictures. Very nice place. Would love to go back again for another visit.

This place is very unique! I loved how big the lake was with all the drive offs and views! Loved the falls!

This is our favorite lake/ camping area to go to as a family. ❤ clean and beautiful!!

Been camping at swimming at Okmulgee Lake my whole life. There’s plenty of RV spaces to choose from and lots of great memories to be made!

The trees were so beautiful . The scenic look of the lake was amazing. The park is so clean. No trash noted anywhere. Love love it with my grandchildren.

Beautiful park with amazing views! Very well kept and it’s easy to access all areas of the park.

Nice lake, cool water and somewhat clear. Weekdays is usually a little empty but on the weekends it can get a bit crowded.

Wow! Really awesome place. Great views with plenty of hiking trails. I live that they have roped off swim areas with beaches. Bathrooms are clean and in working border. There is a free shower and pay shower. Both work very well. Also, it's no where near anything so it's always quiet! I can't wait to go back.

Such a beautiful and peaceful place to visit! It's very clean and so beautiful! We even went on a little hike through the woods...so peaceful and pretty.

Love this tucked away spot. The bathrooms were clean and the camping sites were very nice
