River, stream, or creek camping near Altus

This was such a fun stop along the way on our road trip. The accommodations were lovely, camping but upgraded! We loved the Hippie Cafe restaurant (carrot dogs 10/10) and being able to walk to town was perfect. Medicine Park is a surprising little gem of a town. Darrell and Kelli are very friendly and accommodating. Would for sure recommend their little slice of happiness to other campers passing through 💚

We loved staying here. I can attest they are built solid. We experienced high winds while there and it held then the next night we had rain and the rain sounded so wonderful on the tent. I do recommend bring your own fan. They provide an icybreeze cooler which is great for the night. We would definitely stay again!!!! Great location to see Mt Scott. Rode my bicycle from Hippie Hill thru the refuge. Went hiking and fishing. Loved taking a shower out in nature.

Really cool place and the hosts were great.Really close to medicine park and the restaurant the hosts own is really good, the provided a portable ice filled AC for us so it wouldn’t be so hot to sleep at night and a lantern. Lots of wild life as well.

We had a great time! Tent was really cool, and the hosts were outstanding. Food and service at the cafe were excellent. We would definitely do an overnight stay there again.

Really nice stop over in Oklahoma. Burl and his crew were so kind and welcoming, letting me and my dogs explore the ranch and stretch our legs after a long car day. The shower was lovely. Would definitely stop here again!

Nice for a quick over night stay. All the basics you need. It is beside the I40 so if not running AC you may have noise. The showers could use a little cleaning and the bathroom in general.

We stayed the night on our way to Missouri. It was great for us and we recommended it!

Tent camping here was a blast for the whole family. My kids loved exploring the hillside and my dogs enjoyed the patio area. The Shiloh tent was clean and comfortable and easily fit all five of us plus our two dogs at night. Kelli and Darrell were fantastic hosts who provided us with everything we needed. Plus their cafe was very welcoming had a great selection of food and drinks. The shopping area is a very short drive away, as was the animal refuge and mount Scott- all fun places to go with lots to do. I highly recommend this camp site for anyone visiting the Medicine Park area.

The most friendly and accommodating hosts! Great location for a base to explore the Wildlife Refuge from. Hipcamp facilities share property with the hosts’ organic cafe. The cafe was amazing, allowed dog, had plenty of vegan options, and accommodated my food intolerances. The bed in the Shilo tent was comfortable with the softest sheets. My dog felt most welcome. Proximity to highway and cafe limits privacy a bit. Unless cafe is open, bathroom/shower facilities don’t have plumbed running water. Outdoor shower was a unique experience. The military activity during the night was disturbing (sounds of aircraft, bombing and artillery fire started after dark and was on and off until 2am). People staying in this area should be prepared for the chance of these disturbances, though the hosts said the activity was unusual for that late at night.

pretty much to what i expected. The view, the comforts of home and clean. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The food was awesome, breakfast and convivences. The only thing that i would suggest is a small water heater for the shower lol.

We loved our time at Hippie Hill. We have been going to the restaurant anytime we were in Lawton and finally had a weekend to stay overnight. Check in was easy and the hosts were incredible and accommodating. Even with the multiple events going on in Medicine Park, we were able to have a quiet morning and enjoy the area.

Very nice spot with easy access to I-40. Clean shower and bathroom and just about the friendliest host Ive met!

This was the perfect spot. My wife doesn't like to SUV camp so we did this so she could come along. She loved it! Darrell was a great host. The tent was clean and very accommodating. The bed was exactly what my wife wanted. The cafe has great food and open when we needed it. Great spot to explore Medicine Park and the Wichita Mts. We'll be back soon.

The location was in a perfect spot. So close to everything and the Zion tent looks straight at Mount Scott, which was a gorgeous view. We had breakfast at Healthy Hippie Cafe right a min or two walk from the site. Healthy and great food! Recommend to anyone.

Amazing environment! Will definitely be back! The host were very friendly and the food at the cafe was superb. 1000/10

Tent camping on Kelli's land was a fantastic experience! The location could not have been more perfect - close enough to town to be able to have the convenience of shopping and restaurants if wanted and far enough away to feel like you are getting the full camping experience. The proximity to the Wildlife Refuge with its many trails, gorgeous views and wildlife is a definite perk. Kelli and her husband were amazing hosts. Highly recommend!

Great views close to modern amenities. The zion tent was very romantic for a Valentine's weekend.
