Lake Texoma State Park — Lake Texoma State Resort Park

Open terrain meets lakefront access at this state park campground on the shores of Lake Texoma. The park operates several distinct camping areas, with Catfish Bay and Ben's Campground serving as the primary RV destinations. Most sites feature level concrete pads, though some areas use crushed granite surfaces.

RV campers can choose between full hookup sites or water and electric only, with the waterfront sites lacking sewer connections but offering direct lake access. Brian B. notes "the prettiest sites are the ones without sewer," though full hookup sites provide more convenience despite being "packed in like a row of dominoes." Sites accommodate RVs up to 50 feet and allow slideouts and awnings.

The campground's peninsula location provides minimal shade coverage, making summer stays challenging due to heat exposure. Fishing draws many visitors, with shore access available directly from waterfront sites. The on-site marina offers boat rentals, ice, and basic supplies. Swimming is possible right off some campsites, and sunrise and sunset views over the water are common draws.

Weekend crowds can create noise issues, particularly during family reunions and events. Campers seeking quieter stays may want to visit during weekdays or off-season periods. For additional camping options in the region, explore campgrounds near Kingston.

Guests frequently mentioned the appealing lakefront sites with concrete pads and good lake access. Basic facilities like restrooms need updates, and shade is limited for summer camping. Generally peaceful, though crowding can occur during events.

Perfect RV Site

Our site was right on the lake. Luckily no one was in the site next to us, so we enjoyed a gentle slope down to the water. While we only had water and electric hook up, the dump station was very conveniently located. The water was fantastic for swimming right off our site!

Lots to do at the lake

We stayed here in October at an RV site right on the water. It didn’t have a sewer hookup, which was kind of disappointing but we made it work. We took a nice hike and took the boat out for the day. Bathrooms could use an update but that’s par for the course in Oklahoma.

Quick and Easy

I pulled in about 10pm last week (late October). I tried to pay online as per requested. I set up my 4runner and Roof Top Tent and passed out. There were ZERO other campers but a bunch of RVs. 

The Catfish bay campground was a super open peninsula with very little trees. There were human dropping buildings that looked clean but I didn't use. On the night I was there it was 68 with a very light breeze. I can see the summers being rough at this campground with almost zero cover. Nice shore line and my guess is the fishing is good.  

Probably won't return as I don't see this campground offering much.

Great sunrise and sunset

Not a lot of shade here, so summer would be sweltering. We stayed early October and it was great weather. Good shore fishing but not a lot of hiking and such close by. Sunrise and sun set on the water was nice.

Words Can’t Describe

We stayed in Ben’s Campground in Lake Texoma State Park June 25-28 2020 and were so underwhelmed by all that went on that I can promise we will never stay here or this state park ever again. First of all we were met first thing by the camp hosts checking to see who we were and if we had paid. Then they saw a tent on our site and wanted to know how we were paying for that. First, I want to say I have never, ever been charged to have a tent with us on our RV site. These people acted like we were trying to steal something. I was completely pissed especially how crappy the facilities were taken care of in this park. Then the whole campground was over crowded with some family reunion going on with live music fireworks and general pandemonium going on the whole time we were here. It was fairly quite during the day while it was sweltering heat but after it got dark no consideration for anybody else until after 11:00 pm. Camp hosts were nowhere to be found after they made sure they got your money....they sure weren’t anywhere around to get the music turned off by quite hour. It was terrible for my family that was looking forward to a quite weekend. It was jam packed here like a mini rock festival. How disappointing to drive about four hours to get here.

Crowded but it didn't feel that way

Lake Texoma State Park has a few different campgrounds. We stayed at Catfish Bay for a quick little weekend getaway. 

The campground was nice, quiet, and clean. There were a lot of families and about 50/50 RVs and tents, although most of the tents were in a separate area further down the peninsula.

The RV section has both full hookups and water/electric hookups. The prettiest sites are the ones without sewer, and the next time we go for just a weekend we'll pick one of those. Most of the RV sites have nice, level concrete pads (except the one we choose ... spot 11 ... crushed granite). The full hookup sites are packed in like a row of dominoes but there's plenty of room for awnings and slide-outs.

The park has a marina where you can get ice, beverages, chips, etc. You can also rent boats and tubes for the day.

All-in-all it was a nice weekend and we will probably go back.

Great Tent camping. The grills are combined with the fire pits. The RV area has showers that are separate from the toilets. There are no electrical outlets or hand dryers or soap dispensers.
