Bear Creek Cove is praised for its beautiful, well-maintained grounds and exceptional camp host, Neal, who enhances the camping experience with his friendliness and cleanliness efforts. Campers appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, spacious sites, and the overall cleanliness of the facilities, including bathrooms. However, some have noted challenges with water quality and the check-in process due to limited cell service, along with occasional weather-related issues.

Dam work further south drained the lake at the location. In addition, there was a boil water order for E Coli that was posted on the bathroom doors but not on our reservation. We found out the morning after we arrived since we did not use the public restrooms. We relocated but lost our money on the site.

Beautiful location but can’t predict weather. Not their fault but unable to enjoy experience. Should have closed it down. Lake flooded. There was only a fire pit. No grill for us old folks to cook.

We camp at several parks in Oklahoma and other states,This place by far was the most well kept campground we have been to,wish the caretaker could travel to other campgrounds and teach host how to keep a campground taken care of this nice,the boat ramp was horrible,not the responsibility of the caretaker at Bear Creek.

We loved camping at Bear Creek! It's quiet with lots of green forest. My only suggestion is that when there is a boil water directive, that it is emailed out to the campers so we can bring extra water with us. However, the camp host is amazing! I loved listening to all of his stories, and I appreciated the advice he gave about being a camp host. Thanks for a great time!

From Newkirk, Oklahoma, take Peckham Road and travel east for about 8 mi, turn right on Bear Creek Road and continue south for 3 mi. Campground will be on the right.
Bear Creek Cove is accessible via US Highway 177, which is approximately 12 miles to the east. From there, it connects to other major roads in the area.
