Wonderful Corps park to take the grandkids. The park was cleaned up nicely after the heavy rains which caused the temporary closing. Bathrooms expertly cleaned, swim beach clean, and the sweet lady at the gate house could not have been nicer! She was gracious, helpful, and kind!

We had a great time at Tall Chief Cove. It impressed me so much that I got on line and searched heavily for open spots for future summer vacations. I booked spots in July, August, September! It’s really hard to find anything open especially on the weekends. I love the campgrounds and the people running the camp. Thank you for the wonderful experience. I will be back!!! Hopefully it won’t be flooded! You never know in Oklahoma.

There was no attendant on duty to ask questions to. I was charged at a much higher rate than the posted sign and I don't see a way to correct it. Paid for two nights but packed up and left due to neighboring campers and there is no reimbursement, yet with the campgrounds not being attended there wasn't a reasonable way to resolve the issue. Miserable, over rated and overcharged with no recourse. Ugh!

I stayed at site B37 right on the water across from the beach and it was perfect. Large cement tent pad, electric, table, fire ring and grill. Water spigot shared. Very well maintained.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
