Sheppard Point

One of the best campsites there. Nice and spread our from the rest of the campground. Don't be fooled by the location being close to the water-side. There is tall brush blocking the view of the closest shore line, but you still get a beautiful sunrise over the lake looking towards the East. There are stray, aggressive dogs roaming around the entrance of the campground so BEWARE. Overall well maintained and quiet. Campground staff will ride around one a noisey golf cart that will sometimes get annoying and disturb your peace. There is a trail nearby, but couldn't get to it because of the dogs. Bathroom sites are as clean as they can get. Would stay again.

Labor Day weekend and they hadn’t mowed in probably 2 to 3 weeks. Tall grass and goat head stickers everywhere. This was at the tent camping sites

Still a scrappy little campground. Hardly any campers at the end of August. The restrooms were clean except for that they were very buggy. Still a layer of dead bugs *inside* the soap dispenser (how does that even happen?). The showers didn’t have knobs and seemed non-functional except the next morning someone was showering (?) So, where’d they get a knob and why no showers in August (?).

We recently visited Sheppard Point Campground at Heyburn Lake in Oklahoma, and we highly recommend this COE campground.

So many State parks and COE Campsites are now using unattended entrance gates, that we were pleasantly surprised to find the Sheppard Point entrance attended by an actual host…a surprise made all the better by the terrific greeting and pleasant exchange with the gate host. A terrific welcome, excellent advice and direction, and an assurance that the host was available should we have any questions or concerns. We had not yet seen our campsites…but we already liked Sheppard Point.

We had rented two sites for a long weekend. We came in from Kansas and were joined by our daughter’s family from Oklahoma. As we arrived at the campsites, we were met by the Sheppard Point loop host, who was there to offer help in parking our motorhome.
The sites we reserved, the adjacent beach, the restroom/shower facilities, and the entire loop were conscientiously and beautifully cared for by the Loop Hosts. We stayed long enough to visit a little with the loop hosts, and to witness the constant effort they put forth to care for the loop, ensuring all sites were clean and reset immediately after the weekend crown had departed. Despite extreme heat that weekend, both were out caring for the campground, facilities, and beach.
As we departed, we asked one of the Loop Hosts for directions to the dump station. She manned the water and visited with us as we emptied our tanks.
The loop host couple had been there to help as we arrived, and as we departed.

We highly recommend Sheppard Point at Oklahoma’s Heyburn Lake!
