What others are saying about this campground
Mountain Shade Campground in Great Plains State Park is a well-maintained and gorgeous location for an RV getaway. The Upper level RV area has full hookup 30 amp sites with plenty of space, a cement picnic table, a pedestal grill, and a firepit. The lower level right next to the reservoir has all of the above excluding sewer. There is a dump station located at the entrance of the upper level for convenience. A bath/shower facility is located at the base of the upper level and is also a shelter during inclement weather. In addition, the park features a nice tent area just west of the two RV areas. The park features a boat launch just west of the lower RV area. Each site is level, gravel and mostly back-ins with a few pull-throughs. Theres no wifi, but the Verizon signal is strong. There are opportunities for hiking in the hills above the campground, but the trails are poorly marked and overgrown in places. To enter, take a narrow road off Hwy 183 thats well marked. Theres a nice paved trail along the lake for walking and biking. The main activity seems to be fishing and theres plenty of room for our 40 coach and Jeep. Mountain Shade Campground in Great Plains State Park is a gem and definitely a campground we would return to.

From The Campground

Great Plains State Park is located in southwestern Oklahoma, south of Hobart. Nestled in the shadows of the Wichita Mountains, on the east shore of Tom Steed Lake, the park is extremely appealing for the variety of activities it has to offer. The rough, rocky terrain of the Wichita Mountain foothills provides miles of mountain biking trails for experts and beginners alike. Hiking trails give visitors a chance to explore the park on foot and take in the scenery at a slower pace. Whether biking or on foot, visitors will have access to over 400 acres of park land. Rock climbing in granite boulder fields is also a favorite activity at Great Plains State Park. History buffs will enjoy seeing the ruins of the 115-year-old mine that once operated in the area and has been abandoned ever since. The remnants of the 1904 Gold Bells Mill and Mine are located in the northeast area of Great Plains State Park. With 31 miles of shoreline, Tom Steed Lake offers endless water sport opportunities. Enjoy a swim area with a beach and easily-accessible boat ramps. Visitors may bring boats to the lake for skiing, as well as for fishing. Fishing is at Tom Steed Lake, where catfish, bass and crappie can all be found. Tom Steed Lake and Great Plains State Park are both havens for many other types of wildlife. When not on the water or hiking/biking a trail, kids will enjoy the park's playground. If you're looking to enjoy the amenities of camping at Great Plains State Park, but want to venture out on a day trip, the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge is only a few miles away. Great Plains State Park offers a variety of accommodations. Online reservations must be made for RV and tent campsites. Some RV sites include sewer, water and electricity hookups. Restrooms and showers are provided in the campgrounds and leashed pets are allowed. When it comes to meal time, fire up an outdoor grill at one of the picnic areas, because you just might have fresh fish for dinner.
