I visited Chandler Park in Tulsa today. First time visiting and I was impressed with the beauty of…read morethe bluffs & views of the city. I appreciate the interpretive signs along the walking path providing the history of the park. I love that the trail is accessible, and the further you walk back you find yourself in a wooded area where the trail leaves the pavement, climbing in and around the bluffs. The park has so much to offer including disc golf, picnic areas, playground etc. There is plenty of parking and clean flushing facilities.

The hiking trails are extensive, family friendly and also so so rad! They have the ancient trail which you get to walk through these insane rock formations, it feels so grounding and cool to walk through something thats been here for centuries! They have 2 disc golf courses which is nice so if one course is busy, you have another to play on! Never congested, they have a massive splash pad for summer, ample grounds for picnics, lounging ect.

Also, I noticed that there were signs with a QR code that you could scan to get a map. Very helpful! The biking trails are very nice too. There are nice and well built ramps and jumps. (Sorry I don't have any picture of them) There's also a beginner trail for people who are new to trail biking (me). By the entrance, there's a water refill station and a bathroom. Very helpful after a hike. Overall, great hiking destination and I highly recommend it! Beware: don't go hiking at 12 pm on Wednesdays and Saturdays because the tornado sirens are very loud!

After walking all the way to the dam's base, we were impressed with what we saw. Tip: We saw a good number of large birds here, including pelicans and herons Over and above the dam and the birds, there's not a whole lot else to see here. I'd suggest if you want some good hiking and views that you visit the Ancient Forest instead.

We rented a cabin for a one-night getaway. The check-in process was simple and efficient, and the…read moreperson who answered the phone was extremely friendly and professional. For a very reasonable price, our cabin was clean, and the bed was comfortable. It was our first time to visit, and the grounds were beautifully manicured and clean. It would have been the perfect respite if our stay hadn't been spoiled by park staff the next morning. EARLY. We had stayed up late, socializing with friends, and planned to sleep in. But around 6 am, we were jolted awake by park workers in the adjoining unit, apparently doing maintenance. VERY LOUD. After waking up to a heart-stopping crash of some kind, we heard what sounded like drilling, construction, repair. Our car was in the driveway, so it was obvious our unit was occupied. Their project was completed in about 30 minutes, but there was no going back to sleep at that point. Disappointing.

There are really two parts to this park. It's a COE, Corp of Engineer, park and we've been to many…read moreof those. Some are gated and some are not. This one is not. It sits at the base of the dam and has a campground section and a day use section. This review is mainly for the campground section. It's a pretty park but when we first arrived we weren't sure what to make of it. Grass looked like it hadn't been mowed in quite a while but it was mowed while we were there which really improved the appearance. The inner circle of campsites all have full hookups and the outer circle has water and electricity. We were pretty surprised to see so many who "live" within the system. One camper told us folks go between this park and another park every 14 days. A school bus even comes to take the kids who "live" here to school. Our first night we were on the outside loop and next to one group who played the bass music. Ugh. Where was the host? We had no clue. Yes, there is a camp host or volunteer. In the 5 days we were there we saw him once. A couple of times we went looking for him and never could find him. His site needs to be cleaned up. Stuff is stacked all over. We've never seen that in a COE park either. It was a good place to stay though while weather passed over and would stay again. The park area is nice but think a little more oversight is needed and a little clean-up. I would probably rate the park itself a 4 star but the clutter from the host site and lack of his availability, I moved it down a notch.

It was a gorgeous place to explore! It's a fairly easy hike for kids. The trail goes from the parking lot and is about a mile (maybe less) and comes back to the parking lot. My kids won't normally walk this far on their own, but there is so much to see and so much variation on the trail that they never complained or asked "how much longer" - my kids are ages 5-13. There is some climbing around rocks to get through the trail, so little ones and the elderly will need help. Wear good shoes. There is a small nature center and bathrooms. We love this place and will happily go back in any season!

If you are in the mood to feel like you are exploring nature "off the beaten path" while still being on a trail, this is a great place to do it! I will be going again!
