it seems that the pot smokers have taken to camping because every night the strong smell was all over the campground

We come here often and the park never lets us down. We usually stay in sites on the water but this time we moved up into the trees.. Our experience was just as good as previous. Water connections easily available, Power connections close to sites. mostly level sites, clean and well taken care of park. I would highly recommend

Tenkiller is a beautiful lake! We had the Best campsite!! My only regret is that we didn't take our boat with us. We did have the kayaks but the wind blew so hard it was really hard to get where we wanted to go.....next year the boat will go with us.
