6. Hugo Lake

155 sites · Sawyer, Oklahoma

Oklahoma doesn’t mess around when it comes to beautiful parks. Take Hugo Lake for example. A vast lake perfect for taking the boat out, stretches of sandy beaches ready to be explored, and scenic picnic areas for small or large parties is just the tip of the iceberg for what Hugo Lake has to offer! Lace up your sneakers and head out on the multiple trails. Don’t leave your horse at home, half the trails are equestrian friendly, so let’s stretch their legs! Even if you only plan to stay the day, bring a tent, because five minutes in you’re going to be calling your boss “sick” and making this a long weekend!

Being so close to the water was pretty amazing, the camp was clean and quiet and exactly what I was looking for in a no frills experience. Having the one site restrooms (that were very clean) was a plus! Will be back in the future.
