After traveling for a month through 10 states this was a great stop for a week. Meet the camp host who was very friendly and informative. There is fun museum on premise that my kids loved. Tons of wild deer roaming around. No troubling ants like other campgrounds. Only reason for not giving 5 starts is because it’s only W/E but dump site is at the exit and coming from SoCal where RV parks range from $90-$290 people need to understand you get what you pay for!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at this gorgeous state park in Nov of 2022! I believe we were in the best site at Turkey Pass! It was spacious, quiet and had an open view of the lake. There really didn’t seem to be a bad spot since they really take good care of the grounds and have very friendly staff. The temps were cool but it made having a fire really enjoyable. We will definitely return!
We were shocked at the incredible hot spot connection this far out! AT&T Down: 46.10mbps Up: 1.36mbps Streaming: 3.6mbps Verizon Down: 30.40mbps Up: 14.12mbps Streaming: 3.8mbps

Stayed 2 nights at Hickory Hill Campground, right next to the water. Apparently Hickory Hill is the only full hookup “modern” campground (other sites called “semi-modern” don’t have sewer). Went paddle boarding with our pups both days (a Wed & Th at the end of a August) and felt like we had the lake to ourselves — there was no one else there! Can’t comment on the bathrooms because we didn’t use them while we were there, but everything else seemed well kept.

Did a 1 night stop over; plenty of sites to pick from, I was right on the water. Most sites look very level, concrete pads. The bathhouse is a bit run down. Moldy curtains. Water was hot though. I had decent AT&T cell coverage, but I also use a weBoost. Hardly anyone else there; stayed on a Monday, March 7, 2022

My family of 5 and all our friends come out for holidays and summer fun! We are usually the loudest ones out here. Rose rock doesn't have a beach area but we like it better than the Little Axe camp. We have enough service to stream Hulu and other services, but video calling is difficult.

We stayed at the Rose Rock Hill campground. The camp spaces were cramped and not level. We have a 34ft DP and we just made it. The road is tight and the spaces. There is no privacy as your neighbor is like 20 ft from your coach. Saturday was noisy, but the rest of the week it was really quiet. The park needs attention as the main road is filled with potholes. The bathrooms are nasty. The camp host was amazing. There was another campground Turkey Hill. This campground has paved pads, large spaces for larger rigs.
There is over the air TV. AT&T 5G super fast. Verizon LTE worked with no problems streaming and internet access.
It’s a nice park near Norman and OKC, but it’s run down in desperate need of an upgrade.
The sunsets are amazing!

Stayed here for 3 nights in May 2021 in the Hickory Hill RV loop. Review is based on that section only. As others have mentioned, this is a large state park with multiple campgrounds located on various sides of the lake...choose your destination carefully when mapping!
Pros:
Lakeside sites
30 & 50 amp full hook-up available
Only 20'ish minutes to Norman; 45 minutes to OKC
Ample opportunities for water activities
Big-rigs OK (but definitely research your site before reserving!)
Cons:
Rough, narrow, pot-holed roads within campground loop
Long grass/weeds between sites
Goose droppings everywhere
Hilly terrain
Sites fairly close together
Crowded on weekends (to be expected due to proximity to Norman)
We had a lakeside site with 30 amp full hookups, so I hate to complain...but due to "cons" listed we probably won't return. Met our needs for a spot to stay for a visit to the OKC Museum & Memorial which we highly recommend.

The $34 rate is for a premium site with 50amp service. The park is well maintained and the camp host stopped by to check me in when I showed up. Very quiet site on the lakes edge with plenty of hiking and bike trails. I’d stay here again.
