The Beaver's Bend State Park is within minutes, as it the Broken Bow Lake.

We love the nature, the water, animals, and sunshine. We even love the rain! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Our little piece of Heaven on Earth. We are also close to all of the Hochatown events, eateries, wineries, & breweries. You can go golfing, swimming, get lost in a "secret room" or get a massage, within a 5 minute drive of our location. Grab your pillow, towels, swimsuits, toiletries and come on to Broken Bow Lake (2 miles) or Beaver's Bend State Park (5 miles) and enjoy the great outdoors, in style!

The best camping near Clayton Lake State Park OK guide

Overview

About

A serene lake in the mountains surrounded by lush green forest, clean air, and peace and quiet? Yes please! If you are looking for a tranquil mountain getaway for you, your canoe and your fishing pole, look no further than Clayton Lake State Park. This 80-acre lake is open to small boats and fishing, but not for water sports so you won’t have to worry about those buzzing jetskis killing your vibe. Instead you’ll be able to glide across the still surface and find that Zen you’ve been craving. Bring your hiking boots to explore the trail network that meanders around the tree lined lake. If you want a little somethin’ extra special, visit this park in the fall for some eye-popping scenery as the leaves change color all around the lake. Don’t forget the camera!
