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!

42mi from Kiowa · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
My location is about 8 miles due west of the little town of Caney, Oklahoma. I’m very rural, no close neighbors, 19 acres of pasture and woods. Plenty of places to park, one area is back in the woods a bit with water and 50 amp service, others strictly boondocking. There’s not much “close” to me but I’m kind of centrally located between Atoka, Texoma and McGee lakes. Boggy depot state park and Fort Washita is close by and south of me is the Choctaw Casino. It’s very quiet and no nighttime lights so there’s an awesome night sky.
Please check out the map I've included in my photos for precise directions. The last 2.5 miles to get to my house is by gravel road and my entrance may be a bit difficult to spot but my name and address is on the big black mailbox. Just turn in and cross the cattle guard and go through the driveway into the open field. Parking is on the north side of the drive along the tree line or back in the woods. Don’t hesitate to contact me directly for directions. If you follow my guidance, you should have no problem finding me or turning into my drive.
Pets are welcome but I suggest they remain on a leash if you’re around my house or other campers and please clean up after them. The open field around my house is not always mowed because my neighbor cuts the hay and I like the spring wildflowers. I try to keep a walking path around my place but I travel too so at times it may not be well maintained. Since I do travel a lot, I may not be home when you arrive. Please make yourself at home and leave the place as you found it. Thank you!

42mi from Kiowa · 1 site · Tent, RV
Tucked away and wonderfully quiet, this private RV site is made for folks who want true space to breathe—without giving up convenience. You’ll have the entire spot to yourself (only one camper booking at a time), so there’s no shared driveway traffic, no neighboring rigs, and no campground noise—just a peaceful, secluded setting that feels like a reset button.
The site is set up for easy, comfortable stays with full hookups, including 50-amp electric. Pull in, plug in, and settle in. Outside, enjoy a concrete patio that’s perfect for morning coffee, cooking out, or kicking back after a day of exploring. When the sun goes down, the fire pit is ready for s’mores, stories, and that “finally off the clock” feeling.
Best of all, you get the best of both worlds: quiet and tucked away, yet just minutes from town for groceries, restaurants, and anything you forgot to pack.
If you’re looking for a clean, simple, no-hassle RV stay with privacy, hookups that work, and a relaxing place to unwind—this is it.
Please note: The campsite is on the same property as the owner’s residence, located a few hundred yards away. We give plenty of privacy but are close if you need us. This site is best suited for quiet, respectful folks and probably isn’t the best fit for anyone looking to throw a rowdy party.
See you soon!

Great place for being surrounded by nature and wildlife. Beautiful views and great camping areas. Nice spring fed water/swimming holes. 4x4 definitely recommend to get around property. Come with all supplies before getting to property as there is not anything close besides a gas station.

Weekend Trip to Eagle's Nest LODGE, OK
Probably the coolest thing about Eagles nest is the view. There is an open deck and a covered deck for all weather. The cabin has all of the amenities with the exception of Wi-fi, though the Cell reception is excellent. The keyword here is “rustic.” It is a log cabin on a gorgeous hillside overlooking Lake Sardis. we had a great stay and would definitely go back. The wildflowers were blooming, and the butterflies were flying.

This was a perfect place for us. Close but secluded. Adam and Ashley were great hosts, even letting us borrow a ladder to tend to an awning issue. The site was clean and inviting. We saw some deer close by, and we enjoyed watching the chickens scratch through the wet leaves after a rain. We live out in the country, so this almost felt like home. We will be back! I almost hate to give a great review because it might be full the next time we are in Ada. :)

I loved my time spent on Drue’s property! Not only was he extremely helpful, but his property is very well cared for!
They also gave me the most delicious bright orange eggs!!! Anytime I noticed I forgot something or had a question, I got a message with a solution right away.
There is enough land that you can really be comfortable here and have a nice secluded peaceful time. Many oaks on the property and even oak firewood!! There was even a kindling pile ready to go when I arrived— there are a lot of small details like that.
It’s a real treat and a great weekend if you like fishing, kayaking, birdwatching, or just hanging out! Definitely recommend it 😇 !!

Stayed at Dave’s Hideout for five days and loved it. Beautiful spot. Tons of stars at night, peaceful, and you can hear and see plenty of wildlife. The grass smelled amazing after the rain. You’re far enough out to feel secluded but can still see other campers in the distance.

Loved staying at Buffalo Tree Ranch! The owner was super accommodating, even with my last minute reservation, and communication was great. It’s only about 40 minutes from the Ouchita NF. So if you’re planning on running some trails on the Oklahoma side but don’t want to worry about finding camp, this place is perfect for you. Very private and very little traffic noise after dark.

This place is awesome! First the host was great. Answered any questions i had and was very quick to communicate. The location is beautiful and peaceful right on the banks of the river with easy access to the water w a gravel bar and rock outcroppings. You have plenty of privacy and seclusion but it is only 5 min to town so very convenient too. They had fishing poles to use and i caught a fish on my 2nd cast. The area was all mowed around camp and very clean. There was a canoe and kayaks to use, a bbq grill to cook on, a fire pit with a fire already setup and plenty of firewood provided. The camper is older but perfectly clean and comfortable. Plenty of space to set up tents too. Drue and his family obviously put a lot of effort into setting this up and making sure i had everything i could need. I’ll definitely be back.
