    Map to KOA
    Tanya Y.

    After a week long trip in St. Louis, my hubby and I were headed back home through Oklahoma is pretty bad weather and decided it would be safer to head this way over Oklahoma City. The Checotah and nearby areas are pretty slim pickings when it comes to RV Parks, but thankfully this KOA was there. And you're also in luck if you're looking for a site to tent camp or want to rent a small cabin (think: tiny home). We snagged a space for under $40 with full hookups. There are quite a few amenities, but they won't blow your mind... they're very simple. At the time the pool was drained, but I'm willing to bet it's filled by Memorial Day weekend. We did check out the catch and release pond, located in the back portion of the campground (not to be confused with the larger pond to your right when you pull in), and it was okay. Lot's of frogs, some turtles, and a few gold fish. I was getting bit up by the mosquitoes so I recommend bringing some bug spray if you're going to hang out there. We also took the trail back to Lake Eufaula, but because of all of the rain the water was flooding up into the trail. It looked like a good place to go fishing on a normal day. Since we were only staying the night we decided against picking up food and cooking ourselves so we headed over to their cafe. The cutest little boy greeted us and I really got the feeling that this KOA is extremely family friendly so if you're traveling with the kiddos, you don't need to feel pressured that your kids can't have fun, run around, and enjoy themselves. We both ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes. I was happy with it. Just normal home cooking. Our waitress was being trained, but everyone on staff was happy to help her and she was honestly doing a great job regardless. Outside of the horrible tornado weather, I really enjoyed my stay at this KOA and if we're ever headed this way again I'm sure this would be our preference. I do think there's some room for improvement like the hookups, leveling of the RV spots a little better, and a few aesthetic updates, but overall it's a good spot, it gets the job done, and I loved the staff.

    We stayed an extra day here and it was great! The staff are really friendly and helpful, the facilities are very clean and the barnyard animals they have are the cutest. The walk through the woods to get to the lake is beautiful and it was very quiet. We're very happy with our stay here and we would definitely recommend it to anyone.

    This campground is very easy to access from I-40. Fishing pond, playgrounds, and beer in the general store. Lots of bugs but that's OK

Gambinos Pizza delivers and it's amazing! We definitely will be back! we stayed Sun thru Wed so it wasn't crazy busy like the weekends. It isn't a "Resort", so if you want pampered go find a resort. We will stick with Marval!

    1. HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT - Jamie, manager of Marval RV Resort was left numerous messages as we were…read moretold by an office employee we were no longer able to stay at Marval or have our reunion there. We have been going there since 2020. Jamie never returned the phone calls. In the end I wrote her an email and she responded that say we were no longer able to stay at Marval or have our reunion as we parked on the grass, cars blocked areas where trailers drove through and a camper was in disagreement with her. 2. Jamie, manager of Marval RV Resort said we had numerous issues however could not let us know what they were. Even though we have been coming there since 2020, we never had issues with Marval. Jamie is new this year and based on other reviews takes great pleasure on her "power trip". She is not customer oriented, does not introduce herself when she is in the campground riding around looking for violations, not friendly at all! I would go so far to say she is devious. 3. Marval is not ADA compliant with their pavilion - had a 96 yo legally blind woman and an 86 yo woman who is disabled walking - there is no accessible ramp to pavilion. There are no handrails to hold on to, there is a high step to go up. There is no accessible parking for handicapped, car was parked on grass by pavilion. We are no longer welcome to return to Marval due to one of a couple reasons - parking on grass and not abiding by quiet hours. This is not why I am making this report. There are AMERICAN DISABILITY ACT issues that need to be fixed. An ADA issue was reported for violations. 4. Laundry room was locked and not operable. We had to go to Gore. 5. Some showers in public bathroom did not have hot water 6. We used to have access to the Club House for free based on number of trailer campers and number of cabins rented - beginning in 2024 we started to get charged $400 7. Each person who is not staying at Marval must have a pass to get in - it is $12 per person per day - even if you are coming in just to visit family 8. The loft with 2 beds above does not accommodate any adults even tho it is advertised as such. There were 4 in the cabin and 2 slept on bed, the other 2 had to sleep on the futon which barely had any cushion.

We stopped at the park office and bought some cold sodas and candy. The prices were reasonable and the park ranger was helpful. The scenery is great and the park history is interesting dating back to FDR's New Deal of the 1930's. Tip: be prepared (drinks, snacks, towels, fishing poles, bait, and whatever else you need for your little adventure- a first aid kit is not a bad idea either). I wish I had spent more time here exploring, so stop at the park office first for interesting maps and literature.

We were afraid that it would be too crowded, but there were still several spots with sufficient privacy. There are scores of campgrounds (some of them right on the waterfront), lots of RV hook-ups, a playground for kids, and boating and swimming access to the lake. Although hiking is somewhat limited (there are just a few miles of trails), the scenery is beautiful, and the sunset on the water was idyllic. Very convenient as a getaway if you live in the Tulsa area; I'm sure we'll camp here again!

We paid $10 pp for the day pass and drove around the campground to see what we could see. It's a very nice campground and we loved how private and secure it felt. Sites looked very nice and we noticed a lot of big rigs which is great. They also had cabins or tiny homes that overlook the rock quarry. Pricing seems great so we'd love to come back and rent a cabin for a holiday weekend. As far as the day pass they offer a sandy area for kiddos to play in and there's cornhole set up. We were told they do tournaments on the weekends and that a taco truck also comes on weekends. We watched a guy jump off one of the cliffs which looked fun! Next time I'd love to bring our kayaks. We brought our floats and just relaxed all day. We basically had the place to ourselves for most of the day but a group of 4 did show up for about 45 min and a group of 2 girls about 30 min. Everyone was very friendly! There's a porta potty on site, picnic tables and trash cans. You definitely need floats and or life jackets because it gets very deep quickly. We loved how clear the water is and it felt very refreshing. We did see a guy throw in a line but he never caught a fish but we did see some rather large fish. Highly recommend for a fun swimming hole.
