Site 50 was laid out great and very well shaded. Will definitely camp that spot again. However, it said allowable was 86 ft, absolutely not. My trailer is 31 ft overall and my tongue jack was almost maxed out the get level. Worked for me but I wouldn’t recommend anything bigger.

Lot was good, but Fireworks were shot off every night on the 4th, 5th and 6th, keeping us awake and upsetting our dog terribly. We thought that fireworks were not allowed on the property, that was a disappointment.

Got a last minute spot on a holiday weekend so the site wasn't great but it was good. ( Site # 98 ). The plug in receptacle was worn out, very loose. Camp host took notes and was going to turn it in. The camp host, Clarence and his wife were very nice and accommodating people. For a 4th of July weekend they kept the campgrounds very clean. The black/gray water dump area was good. We have other favorite areas on Tenkiller but would definitely stay at chicken creek again!

Poorly maintained! Never do they weed eat. People bring their own weed eaters.
The cement pad that the picnic tables sit on are covered with dirt and stones. Bathroom was closed the whole time we were there. Poorly maintained.
