***WINTERIZATION NOTICE*** Otter Creek campground open to RV camping with electric only. Bathrooms winterized and unavailable beginning November 1. Mountain Shade campground and bathrooms will remain open.

At Great Plains State Park, Oklahoma's diverse terrain is showcased while giving visitors a well-rounded vacation experience. Great Plains State Park is located in southwestern Oklahoma, south of Hobart.  Nestled in the shadows of the Wichita Mountains, on the east shore of Tom Steed Lake, the park is extremely appealing for the variety of activities it has to offer.  

The rough, rocky terrain of the Wichita Mountain foothills provides miles of mountain biking trails for experts and beginners alike.  Hiking trails give visitors a chance to explore the park on foot and take in the scenery at a slower pace.  Whether biking or on foot, visitors will have access to over 400 acres of park land.  Rock climbing in granite boulder fields is also a favorite activity at Great Plains State Park. 

Tom Steed Lake, with 31 miles of shoreline, affords visitors endless water sport opportunities.  A swim area with a beach is conveniently located at the lake, and boat ramps provide easy access.  Visitors are allowed to bring boats to the lake for skiing, as well as for fishing.  Fishing is a popular sport at Tom Steed Lake, where catfish, bass and crappie can all be found with a little luck. Tom Steed Lake and Great Plains State Park are both havens for many other types of wildlife. When not on the water or on a trail, kids will enjoy the park's playground.   

Great Plains State Park offers a variety of accommodations.  The campground features 30 tent sites, and 52 RV hookups are available.  RV sites include sewer, water and electricity or just water and electricity. Restrooms and showers are provided in the campgrounds and pets are allowed.  When it comes meal time, fire up an outdoor grill at one of the picnic areas, because you just might have fresh fish for dinner.
