What others are saying
Black Mesa State Park is a remote and beautiful State Park located in the far west of the Oklahoma Panhandle. The park is designated as a Black Sky area, meaning the stargazing opportunities are incredible when skies are dark and clear. The park offers great camping opportunities, with spacious and well-maintained campsites, and nice restroom facilities. Cell phone service is spotty but Wifi is available near the park office. The nearby Vista Trail, Petrified Log Exhibit, party pavillions, swings, meri-go-round, small convenience store, and nearby swimming hole, make this a great little park. The lake offers fishing, kayaking, and hiking trails with fantastic overlooks. The park is perfect for those seeking a peaceful, natural environment where they can unwind and stargaze in a beautiful, quiet setting.
