Bathroom could use a good cleaning, not just swept 🧹 out.

The campground was very quiet and overall a great campground. The official camp season hasn’t started so some of the grounds were closed- but we walked in to see all of the grounds. The sites are very well spaced. The bathhouse was okay- everything worked and it was stocked. It had rained so the equestrian trails were quite wet but we walked them anyway. I enjoyed the trail from central to south campgrounds the most.

We spent one night at site 80. It was right behind the men's side of the restroom. This was a very quiet place in middle November. The sunset looking through the trees and over the water was lovely. This would be a shady spot in the summer. We arrived about 5 pm, but checkin time was officially 6 pm. In the winter, you would be checking in well after dark. We didn't hook into electricity or water. The asphalt pad was not level (tilted to the back). The light did not come on in the men's shower. With the light from our flashlight we couldn't tell how clean the shower was so we opted not to use it. There was a potato chip wrapper in one of the men's shower stalls. The women's restroom area looked clean.

Potato hills central is a hidden gem in southeast Oklahoma. This is the second fall I have stayed here. It’s very beautiful and relaxed. We stayed in A19. It’s the best site of all, IMO. It’s right at the tip of the peninsula in A loop. The only downside to the site, is that it can get very windy. The fall colors tend to peak in this area in the first 2 weeks of November. I wish they would keep this campground open just a little longer, into November. We have stayed right up until closing day, October 31st, both years. I hope to continue to stay here each fall.
