There are really two parts to this park. It's a COE, Corp of Engineer, park and we've been to many…read moreof those. Some are gated and some are not. This one is not. It sits at the base of the dam and has a campground section and a day use section. This review is mainly for the campground section. It's a pretty park but when we first arrived we weren't sure what to make of it. Grass looked like it hadn't been mowed in quite a while but it was mowed while we were there which really improved the appearance. The inner circle of campsites all have full hookups and the outer circle has water and electricity. We were pretty surprised to see so many who "live" within the system. One camper told us folks go between this park and another park every 14 days. A school bus even comes to take the kids who "live" here to school. Our first night we were on the outside loop and next to one group who played the bass music. Ugh. Where was the host? We had no clue. Yes, there is a camp host or volunteer. In the 5 days we were there we saw him once. A couple of times we went looking for him and never could find him. His site needs to be cleaned up. Stuff is stacked all over. We've never seen that in a COE park either. It was a good place to stay though while weather passed over and would stay again. The park area is nice but think a little more oversight is needed and a little clean-up. I would probably rate the park itself a 4 star but the clutter from the host site and lack of his availability, I moved it down a notch.

One of the area's best places to kayak. Paddle to the lake's west end then north into Rock Creek…read more This is a lovely tree covecovered paddle in the summer! Fee charged for fishing!

Park and lake were made in 1947. Sapulpa Parks Department cares for this "park in the rough"…read more They do a fair job, they probably keep it cut in season. The water is way down, so I don't know how fishing is. There is a boat ramp, latrines, concession stand in season, old fashioned play ground, picnic tables. There is an RV campground across the street that is part of the park. Additional star for breeze and sunset!

This park is really nice. There are two different sides to it. One side has a brand new playground…read moreand the Arkansas river. There is also river access if you have a kayak. Although I will say most days the water looks very brown and I personally wouldn't touch the water. But I have seen people kayak in it. They have swinging two seater seats that over look the water. They also have a cool map of Oklahoma that's engraved in the cement. On the other side of the park they have lots of trees and a nice walking path. There is a path leading to the bridge where you could walk across it . Both sides have restrooms. I have noticed there are TONS of mosquitoes that straight attack you during mosquito season. I stay clear of this park during that time, because I'm allergic to their bites. Love walking my dog because there is lots of shade and he loves the squirrels that he chases up the trees. Lately there's been a lot of electric bikes - kids in groups of like 5-7 at a time zooming through really fast on the walking path so heads up and be aware of that.

Ohhh my goodness. I took my toddler here and I think I had more fun than her. The park is an…read moreamazing added experience. We could've stayed there all day. The photos don't do it justice. The walking trails were just as beautiful and so breathtaking. The playground must be an add-on from the past four years because the previous reviews don't say anything about the playground other than possible renovations. I can't wait to go back again soon. The only negative thing I have to say is that because it seems to be a very pet friendly park, I did not see any doggy trash stations. I think those should be added all throughout the park.

Very large park that includes the Creek Turnpike Trail that loops through the park and then…read morecontinues along the side of the highway. At the center, a nice sized pond and an open area for play. As parks go, I enjoyed my walk this afternoon here despite the wind and rain. Keep to the side of the trail and try to keep your eye out for bicycles as there is definite debate as to who has the right of way (Hint: it's the pedestrians but when your handlebar hits someone and you dump into the road, it's too late.) Playgrounds, picnic tables under a huge picnic pavilion, a basketball court and a disk golf course round out the other goings on here. Oh, and a dog park.

Great rates too! Staff is super friendly and helpful. They will be back in March, last weekend was the last day of the season. But there is a dock ramp which is open yearly that you can use for personal kayaks or paddle boards. I would definitely recommend coming back in March if you want to rent. Super easy and convenient. Dress to get wet, depending on how you paddle lol. Water sprays and drips from paddles. Also wind sprays the water. So shorts, water shoes or flip flops would be great.

For a Corps of Engineer Lake I think I expected a little more. I do like that it was quiet and…read moreaccommodates our pets without penalty. Getting to the lake was a little crazy and there were no clear posted signs where to turn. The road from one point off Rt 66 was ROUGH and NARROW. For our first time pulling our camper it was 4 miles of stress. We always leave the site cleaner than how we found it. That being said we found lots of broken glass on the beach and trash. Lots of stickers in the grass. Overall the campground was clean. Restrooms and bath houses were in general clean. No real doors to speak of. they used shower curtains which were torn making it awkward to use the restroom or shower. I would not reserve site 20 or 21. #20 has a lot of wash out and was not level. #21 was a little better. #22 &#23 were much flatter and would be easier to level your camper on. We reserved online and according to the site it was full and site picking was slim. When we arrived there were 10-15 total campsites occupied...maybe? So I would not trust the site. I would suggest calling if you are interested in a particular site. We did not have a boat and did shore fishing with no luck. Lots of turtles. There were large boats on the water and personal water craft. Water was on opposite side of camper. We had to go to walmart and get a longer hose. The water had great pressure so be sure you get a regulator. I would also suggest bringing water to make coffee or cook with or use an intake filter. Just smells a little but not terrible. I just didn't like the way my coffee tasted. I don't think we will return based on sites, navigation and price. $20+ with no septic.
