Great park to visit, camp and ride! We'll definitely return when it's not too hot. We did have a SXS break down before the gate to the trails was locked. Site ranger was very kind and she didn't seem bothered by our request to unlock the gate.

Very nice lake! Husband took me for anniversary and we stayed in a cabin. Cabin is clean, a/c works great and quickly, staff at check-in very friendly. Drove around and checked out the camp sites for tent and trailers and they are very nice! Quite a variety of sites to choose from! The beaches seem clean, the bathrooms were clean. All in all, Lake Murray is very nice and we can't wait to go back and get on the lake and relax!! There's historical buildings to check out as well. There seem to be several hiking trails which interest us however we didn't have time to check those out yet.

Beautiful modern style lodge. Directly across water park trampolines, kayaking, much more. Beach area for over nighters in walking distance of Lodge. Prices are fair for outdoor activities. Front desk is super helpful. Restaurant on premises but is seasonal. Tons of trails to explore!

Pretty cool place to take the family. We stayed at the cabins which was older but relaxing from the city life. We went hiking, dirt bike riding and spent some time in the nearby town of Ardmore. There are some cool antique stores and small restaurants. Since this is a small older town things close a bit early. The cabins are pet friendly as well as the hiking trails. During the spring and summer months they have boat rentals, a pool, and mini golf. There is a restaurant onsite called Foggy Bottoms Kitchen. Good food.

Do you have to pay an entry fee to just get into the park?

LIFE LIZ | Dec 30, 2021
Michelle McDougall | Dec 31, 2021

Not if you just drive around the lake.You would only have to pay to park if you pull in and park for long periods of time.If you pull in just to use the restroom you don't have to pay to park.

Are there special/lower rates for the cabins in the winter months or if you are wanting to stay for an extended period of time (like a month)? Thank you!

It was an amoeba that increases in population when water becomes stagnant. As long as there is fresh water coming into Lake, there is no danger from this amoeba. In times of drought, the springs & creeks that feed into Lake Murray dry up. No fresh water comes into lake & t gets stagnant. It was prevalent in all the lakes & ponds in OK from 2007-2016. From 2017 til the present time, the springs & runoff have been supplying an adequate amount of fresh water to keep this amoeba from being dangerous. We swam there June 1-4 & the water had never been fresher.

How Far are the Sandy Beaches from ATV riding area??? Or is people allow to stay in the lake shores of the ATV riding area? We are a big group and not everyone will be able to ride.

Sujeimarie “SusyAngels” Acevedo | Jun 29, 2019
Glenn Downs | Jun 30, 2019

Not very far. I would suggest that you look at Google maps with the satellite layer turned on. As far as camping on the shore of the lake I have seen people do it but I don't know if it was legal. I would definitely check park rules beforehand. It is a fantastic place!
