I have been camping here with my family for a long time. When my sister and I decided to go to…read moreOklahoma State University we have had graduation parties and family member bring their RV's and stay here since 2014. Our spot would always be at pine grove and would go fishing in their crappie pond and were thrilled when they added the new sand beach. Now in 2025, they have made our spot (Pine Grove) where me and many other families have always taken our spring break, fall break and other week vacations at and "annual only site" and closed it off. We thought okay that sucks but we can try out the others sites. We decided to try out Beaver Cove and that has been a MAJOR disappointment. The sites look like they have not been tidied up in who knows how long and their bathrooms are unclean and do not have any soap ever! No decent swimming/fishing areas around it. And ticks everywhere! You would figure if they decided to close off pine grove they would fix up the non-annual spots but no! Seems to be more about the money considering there are more annual spots than non-annual and they are better taken care of. After 11 years of camping here we have decided to look elsewhere to camp. So so so disappointed!!!!

From the moment I stepped onto the trail, surrounded by tall trees and the sound of birdsong, I knew I'd found a gem. The paved walking paths twist and turn through the woods, making it feel like you're out on a little adventure, even though you're right in the heart of Edmond. What really stood out was how much there is for families. I watched kids racing from one playground to the next, each one built with different age groups in mind. There's even soft turf under the toddler areas--nice touch. Parents lounged at shaded benches while little ones climbed and slid their hearts out.

The red is a little shorter and is more inland while the blue is closer to the water. We played the blue and after the first hole across an open field you are pretty mini. The woods for the rest. The fairways are tight and lots of high grass and woods. Pay attention to where your disc lands as it can be a tough find in some areas. The holes are all pretty short and it was pretty easy to navigate and follow the signage. This was my first time here and really enjoyed it. Took just shy of 2 hrs to play. It is free to play sort of. You have to pay 10 dollars per car with max 5 occupants to get into the park itself.

A trip to Lake Arcadia can be a modest affair, staying in the car driving through the park around sunset, maybe walking out on the dock watching the sun fade away for the day, or it can be an all day adventure with boating and picnics and barbecues. Early on in 2020 we realized we needed to renew our park pass for Lake Arcadia as we could see this may be a loooong year (boy, we were right on the money). Eighty dollars will get a vehicle in the park for a year if you are an OKC resident. Edmond residents can buy a year park pass for a 20% discount per year (about $64 dollars). This gets you unlimited entry into the park. I'd highly recommend it. I've always said one of my most favorite parts of living in Oklahoma has been the celebration in the sky at the end of daylight ringing in that night is upon us. I'm not from Oklahoma and I will say that the sunsets here are second to none. This park, especially the dock facing west next to the boat ramp is one of my most favorite places to watch the relay of the daylight sun passing into the Southern Hemisphere. Just as dusk settles in wildlife really begin to peek out from the woods. If you have kiddos and can manage to work in a drive through Arcadia at dusk, they'd love to see all the deer (definitely deer), and maybe turkeys, cranes, eagles, scissor-tailed flycatchers, and hawks that come around when most of the all-day lake goers have left for the day. Treat yourself to a sunset here and learn why it's worth every bit of $80 to get to come here as often as you want. October 2020

Getting to the lake was a little crazy and there were no clear posted signs where to turn. The road from one point off Rt 66 was ROUGH and NARROW. For our first time pulling our camper it was 4 miles of stress. We always leave the site cleaner than how we found it. That being said we found lots of broken glass on the beach and trash. Lots of stickers in the grass. Overall the campground was clean. Restrooms and bath houses were in general clean. No real doors to speak of. they used shower curtains which were torn making it awkward to use the restroom or shower. I would not reserve site 20 or 21. #20 has a lot of wash out and was not level. #21 was a little better. #22 &#23 were much flatter and would be easier to level your camper on. We reserved online and according to the site it was full and site picking was slim. When we arrived there were 10-15 total campsites occupied...maybe? So I would not trust the site. I would suggest calling if you are interested in a particular site. We did not have a boat and did shore fishing with no luck. Lots of turtles. There were large boats on the water and personal water craft. Water was on opposite side of camper. We had to go to walmart and get a longer hose. The water had great pressure so be sure you get a regulator. I would also suggest bringing water to make coffee or cook with or use an intake filter. Just smells a little but not terrible. I just didn't like the way my coffee tasted. I don't think we will return based on sites, navigation and price. $20+ with no septic.
