It was nice the first day then the following day it got way too crowded. The campers around didn't respect your campsite and just walk through it and mess with things and being loud and dealing with people who are drinking when they can't drink in this time of year. I'm sure anytime besides the summertime camping in this area is completely fine, but summertime do not recommend

The campground was great except there was only June mens bathroom working - being the 4th of July week and weekend this made it not great otherwise - if they fix that problem we really like it there. Swimming in the cold springs was just across the road - we could walk there - made swimming alot easier with the kids and adults.

It will be good if the camping spaces would have water hose we have to walk long distance just to get water to wash my dishes overall everything was good
@CristaN1854C68 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #10
Always love it here! Very nice campground & beautiful scenery
@tiffanyd604400 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #20
Everything was nice and clean. The only issue would be that they did not have showers. I guess I didnt notice that at booking, so its my fault. But adding showers would really make a huge difference in the experience. Especially since there are so many campers there to swim and enjoy the outdoors. Its just a little overwhelming in the heat to not be able to shower after a long day outdoors. The campground was great though. We had a lot of fun.
@JustinC5FCDD45 · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #44
Clean and the Rangers are great. Had a problem with a family who let their 12 year old son steal and destroy property. Shame on the whole family. You know who you are. POS
@AgustinaM5EDFF · Camped on Jun 8, 2025 at Campsite #30
Loved the stay! The only bad is that it does not have showers. But the kids loved it and we had a good time!
@TonyaMF217F83C · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #25
We love camping at Cold Springs! I enjoy all the trails and wildlife.
@JamesT8733204 · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #21
Bathrooms were good and sites very clean. Site 21 does have a trail right next to it, so it might feel like people are hiking right through, but it wasn't much traffic. We will definitely be back.
@OmarD76AEC21F3 · Camped on May 25, 2025 at Campsite #2
The river area is wonderful, but in the camping area there are many fleas and ticks. They bit a nephew and me. They need to have more pest control!
@AaronM4160322 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #34
The campsites are well maintained. We had site 34, and it was right by the river, and we could just walk over and swim right there. The place is beautiful with a nice hiking trail nearby and a nature center on the hike with some cool things in there. I highly recommend.
@LindaS8448936 · Camped on Mar 28, 2025 at Campsite #65
Lots of trees and peaceful location. Sites near the main road have road noise which may be distracting. But then also have the sound of the stream.No electricity or water at the campsites. There are potable water spigots within a 100 feet or so of each campsite. It is not as fresh tasting as what I'm used to, but does the job. There are NO showers at this campgrounds, but the restroom had multiple stalls and running water which were clean and refilled while I was there.

First day at camp someone set the dumpster on fire, we reported the fire. Second night at camp someone took our campsite set up a tent, started a fire (even though our site was reserved and had decoration on the site.) The next morning (3 am) we could hear arguing (over our sound machine, in a closed up van) from the group who had been in our site. The next morning they were shouting profanities and playing loud music. We told the camp host about the previous nights experience to which we were told to call 911 if theres ever a problem. They said they would talk to them which made us uncomfortable for fear of reprisals..We have camped at this recreation area for years but a different campground without any issues. This was just a bad weekend for camping.
@MatthewED4D3CB · Camped on Mar 17, 2025 at Campsite #64
We love camping here! Very clean and so much to enjoy! Ron, the camp host, was awesome!

My wife and I have been going to Chickasaw Recreational Area for over 50 years. (Started back when it was Platt National Park) Our three children also grew up going to the park. Although the park is just a few blocks out of town, the minute you enter the park you feel you are miles away. The campsites in each of the campgrounds are wooded and spaced well apart. There is no electricity or sewer hookups in the old part but there are hookups at the newer Buckhorn Park and Arbuckle Lake South of the older park area. There are clean flushing restrooms, no showers, and water hydrants in the older campgrounds. Our favorite campground was Rock Creek which is now closed. Cold Springs Campground is now open year round. It is right across the street from Rock Creek swimming holes. We love campsites 20, 21, 22. The camp hosts, Ron and Anne are the nicest couple and helpful with anything you may need. They will be truly missed now that they are retiring this year. Ranger Ashley is also fantastic. You will want to check out the Nature Center, the interpretative Ranger programs, the nature trails behind the Nature Center going to the two springs that feed Rock Creek, Little Niagara, Bromide Hill trail, Veterans Lake, the Bison overlook, swim in the cold year round spring fed Rock Creek water, or swim at Arbuckle Lake. There is so much to do at the park. Spend all day hiking, biking, swimming and return to your campground with a nice fire and enjoy the deer, birds, raccoons, and other wildlife right at your campsite. There is also a five mile hiking, biking, equestrian trail that goes through beautiful secluded park land with rolling hills and creeks from Veterans Lake to the newer Buckhorn area. Also the Chickasaw Cultural Center just outside of the park is well worth visiting to see Indian artifacts, history, and replica village. My wife and I just spent 4 nights with our now grown kids and their families and again had a wonderful time as we have had for over 50 years now.

beautiful clean peaceful camp. nice clean bathrooms
@RobertM1452522 · Camped on Dec 7, 2024 at Campsite #17
Awesome environment and volunteers/staffGot to see plenty of deer and wild life. I went in off season (December) and had a wonderful night listening to rain on the tent.
@PaulH7895659 · Camped on Nov 27, 2024 at Campsite #55
Although mine was a short overnight stay, it was memorable. A short hike surrounded by curious deer in the cool clear night. A warm fire and breakfast in the crisp morning air. Well maintained facilities and organized campsites made for a pleasant outing. The surrounding grounds offer peace and tranquility.
@JEFFREYL4C0A7F · Camped on Nov 22, 2024 at Campsite #44
Plenty of great trails, springs and the Cultural Center is a must see.
@stevev2232221 · Camped on Nov 15, 2024 at Campsite #46
Very woodsy site and camp hostess is the best. Great hikes and dont miss the world class Chickasaw Cultural Center and the very good and educational movie about Chickasaw history. Call for times.
@RandyK8057722 · Camped on Oct 25, 2024 at Campsite #20
Love the area and campground. Our camp neighbors however were total jerks. Generator, glaring lights, noise, plus they cut down a live tree for firewood. Thankfully the ranger came by and kicked them out.
@GaryE6624143 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #22
Our time was pleasant as we were the only ones in the campground from Sunday to Tuesday, with the exception of one or two others camping for one night. The camp sties are quite close together and there isnt as much vegetation between which doesnt provide much privacy., if the campground had been full. Restrooms were kept clean. However, we did not see the Hosts during our time. We enjoyed the Visitors Center and the trails that left from there. Little Niagra was pretty and enjoyable.
@BrendaF31B4DA8 · Camped on Oct 12, 2024 at Campsite #44
Loved the place and things to do.
@TashaBFF075086 · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #58
There were so many trails and spots to get into the crystal clear water. We loved it! The bathrooms were nice and centrally located. The only issue was the sites are very close together.
@MelissaC162559 · Camped on Oct 4, 2024 at Campsite #47
Chickasaw Recreation Area is always a treat. There were so many deer in the area and the trails are beautiful. Cold Springs #47 doesn't have another campsite behind you so it's nice for kids to play in the woods. Nice spot to put a tent in the shade. The bathroom is not too far. Water is on the other side of the bathroom which is fine. My biggest complaint is there are no showers. If there were showers this would be the perfect place to camp. The park rangers are friendly and helpful and they will not put up with anyone breaking the rules like quiet hours. Thanks CRA for a beautiful weekend!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
