We didn't stay here super long as I started getting anxious about the long drive back home. It's a public park. Free parking. There was a playground. A decent sized lake. Walking/running path. I stopped here mainly because the Comanche National Museum and Cultural Center is just a few hundred yards away. Go touch grass! Your brain and heart will thank you.

Spent three nights here in late August. Simply wonderful. We walked pretty much the whole place…read more Climbed rocks, rode bike and even fished a bit. The fishing is amazing even for an amateur like me. Scott, Park Manager, is a pleasure to deal with. Super friendly and supportive. We stayed down near the water in spot 29. The only minor frustration is the flies. But that was probably our own problem. They loved the outside of our RV. but were almost unnoticeable when out and about. We highly recommend this park. A very beautiful part of Oklahoma we don't get to see enough of. We will be back.

We enjoyed swimming in the lake, there's a wonderful sandy beach that's very clean. There's some decent hiking trails and apparently some good fishing, we saw a lot of people fishing near the dam. We loved how empty it was on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Only a few tents and campers around, it felt very private and secluded. We had the entire beach to ourselves. Unlike Lake Lawtonka, this park allows dogs or at least we didn't see any signs indicating otherwise! Our dogs thoroughly loved it! It's pretty secluded so pack your lunch and bring plenty of water to drink. There was a small general store near the boat ramp that sells burgers but not sure they're open all year.

When you enter the park, you will see "the falls" signs, park and then walk. It's not too far of a walk at all, my 4 year old had plenty of energy leftover when we got back to our vehicle haha. We didn't ride around to see what all there is, but did see a playground for the kids if you keep going straight when you enter the Park. There are restrooms as well if you drive a little way down, convenient! Very fun trip to Wichita Falls from Fort Worth, the waterfall was pretty and peaceful!

Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge - A Natural Treasure in Oklahoma…read more If you're seeking a blend of stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and serene hiking trails, Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge is a must-visit. The Elk Mountain Trail provided a moderate hike with rewarding scenery. I saw Bison and longhorn cattle, fields of wildflowers, butterflies, and bees *just be aware and don't be dumb thinking you can touch the Bison or Cattle, they will attack you* Apparently there were prairie dogs too but I didn't see them :( For those planning an overnight stay, the Doris Campground offers a peaceful environment, though it's worth noting that there are no water hookups at individual sites We were surprised we were in Oklahoma it's an unbelievable landscape with unique rock formations.
