Best place to go Camping

[rebelracer79]

The Wife and I are wanting to take the kids camping sometime in the next couple of weeks. Here are the requirements

Fairly secluded
Fishing available
Somewhere in the eastern half of the state, preferably north.

Ready. Go...

our faves (in no particular order) are Green leaf state park, Osage Hills state park, Lake Leather wood city park and Devil's den state park. Last 2 are in Arkansas but worth the short drive.

Main reason to stay in OK is so we don't have to buy fishing licenses, kinda want to avoid areas with other folks, really just back in the sticks somewhere

Osage Hills is nice and quiet, forgot about the lake there.

Yes. The wife and I have stayed there at the cabins many weekends. Very quiet. There is a pool
You can rent boats to fish the lake. When we rent boats on the first day, we only request one day rental. They usually tell us to bring back the key when we leave a couple of days later (wink)
There was a doe with an ear tag named sugar that would hunt you down if you had a styrofoam cup in your hand.

She was addicted to the the sugar cubes that were stocked in the cabins for coffee. People would put them on a cup and she would walk right up to eat them.
I'm sure she is gone now, but it was a unique thing to do.

Blue or Spencer coves on Oologah.

You might try Spavinaw or Eucha.

It's not Northeastern, but the Wichita Mnts are spectacular in the winter time. Not so much Oct/Nov, but December through February are fantastic West of the refuge. You can get really far away from everything out there. It's nice, and we're trending towards a fire-friendly winter. Just be sure to pack the mummy bags.

Elk should be bugling too I'd think.
