Keep your golf clubs and fishing poles handy when you camp at this shady KOA north of the Red River in the oak-draped foothills of the Arbuckle Mountains. Swim and bike (rentals available) at Lake Murray, a 5,728-acre gem of a state lake. A 20-minute drive brings you to vast 93,000-acre Lake Texoma, famed for catfish, crappie and bass fishing. Parks alongside both lakes feature 18-hole golf courses. Play a round at the Falconhead Resort & Country Club, where legend Jack Nicklaus once golfed. You’ll also find rodeos, auctions and antiquing close by.
