Pine Cove was great! The whole area was very clean, no over flowing trash any where. The boat dock wasn't over flowing. Most of the time there is no parking at the boat dock parking and we have to go up the road to park the trailer. The water was clean, even the swimming area was well maintained. The marina is fully operational with gas available. There are several landings at Tenkiller so it is worth doing some recon to see where works best for you.

Beautiful area. The visitors center was great and the fun to visit. Lots of places to picnic, fish, or just sight-see. We saw eagles πŸ¦… while we were there and can’t wait to go back.

One of my favorite state parks! The park is really nice with Frisbee golf, a pool, a playground, nature center, RV campground, tent sites, cabins, and marina. Tenkiller is one of the best lakes in OK, so great spot if using the lake. Last year we stayed in a cabin, cannot recommend them, they are in need of updating, this year we took our RV and loved it. Stayed at Fox Squirrel, which has full hookups. Shady Grove does also, but the sites are really close (though a nice overlook nearby). Fox Squirrel is close to the nature center, marina and pool (which sadly wasn't even open, I wish the state parks had their own website with up to date information other than the terrible travel OK site). When open, the pool is also one of the best at the state parks with a rock wall and water slide. Walking trails are short and easy, multiple areas to access water (though the "beaches" are rocky). Marina is reasonably priced to rent a boat. All the tent sites look awesome if you can handle the heat!

Brian Phillips | Jun 12, 2021
Spec _ | Jun 13, 2021

Man made damn, and the rocks are dangerous. The entire place is rocky around the lake at the camp sites. No signs saying you shouldn't, but it's shallow and rocky at many portions. Own risk.

Does the killer have any RV sites with internet service?

Debbie Barger | Jun 13, 2019
Jay Valente | Jun 14, 2019

Keep in mind it can get a little sluggish if lots of folks are on it. I keep a hotspot with me if I'm on a working camping trip. Verizon works great, and AT&T works pretty well.

Pamela Banaszak | Jun 13, 2019

Snake creek park is better for tent camping. State park campsites are fairly far from the water. If you use Hickory flats campground you can get close to the water but a smaller area.
