Extremely clean campsites and bathrooms. Good mixture of shaded and sunny sites. Boat ramps not busy and jam packed. Stores nearby.

Tall Chief Cove is a well-maintained campground with clean facilities, friendly staff, and beautiful waterfront sites, making it a great spot for relaxation and family fun. Many visitors appreciate the shaded areas, easy access to the lake, and the helpfulness of gate attendant Kathy. While some sites may be narrow and lack sewer hookups, the overall experience is positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Nice spacious campsites with plenty of trees (A and B loops) and a nice waterfront from most sites. Well maintained campground. Camp host was very pleasant.

Very pretty park -quiet. Downside - not every rv site has it's own water hydrant. Pulled in to my site and discovered that I needed 100' of hose to be able to hook on to nearest neighbors water. A little unhandy but doable. When an rv pulled in beside me on the other side - they had to run 200' of water hose to connect to the same hydrant. Three on one hydrant was still doable but who carries 200' of water hose? Poor infrastructure planning even for engineers.

Very pleased. Had issue with 50amp service on site A26. Informed the host and within 2 hrs the breaker was replaced. Also on site 28-29 the water was leaking pretty bad. This too was resolved at the same time.

After 7 years being away from Tall Chief we found a big decline in the quality of camping. During our stay we found that a water regulator is mandatory is you don’t want blown pipes in your RV. The pressure >100psi. We never say a park Ranger during our stay. A neighboring camper had their trailer battery destroyed by someone trying to steal it. Dogs running loose in the campground and the beach. Dead timber in campgrounds ( an invitation for Copperheads and rattlesnakes.
The only thing that was very satisfactory was the Park Attendant and Park Host. They were friendly and as helpful as possible.
My question is What Happened to turn this park from a 10 to a 3 in the past 7 years?????

We were locked out of the campground - we returned at 11:30 pm from a party in Tulsa. Campers staying in the campground should be given access to the park using a key pad or something

14004 Lake Road, Skiatook, OK 74070 United States
Elevation: 217 ft
From Tulsa, Oklahoma, take Highway 75 north to State Highway 20. Take the Skiatook exit, turn west on State Highway 20 and drive about 15 mi. Turn left on Lake Road and proceed about five miles to the campground.
