This 55 acre park is home of a large sandstone that contains 8 markings believed to have been made by Vikings many years ago. The park features a seasonal waterfall, covered picnic areas, playground, amphitheater with seating, community building, scenic views, gift shop and approximately 2 miles of nature trails. Be advised that most tent sites have a tent pad but a few are primitive. The one RV site is for 16 ft. or less vehicles and smaller teardrop trailers with limited hook-up and no dump station. Restroom and shower facilities are located within the park. Forest setting while still close to stores in case of forgotten items but the gift shop is stocked with camping supplies, as well. Variety of small wildlife in the area. All sites allow campfires UNLESS we are under a county wide burn ban.
*Note moderate cancellation policy for most dates - full refund 3 days before check-in time. *
** Special event camping is a strict no refund policy.
A last minute decision to camp while at work on Friday led me to find a spot near broken bow, I looked at some pics and booked this park, and little did I know what it was!!!! Cool unexpected state park with neat views and history! The over all place is cool to visit, and the campsite was decent. Be aware of the hike to site 10 if you were planning on leaving most of your gear in your car…was a hike up! Runes in Oklahoma, who knew!

We enjoyed the scenic views from the overlook. The campsite was well prepared and clean. It was a great time.

Had a wonderful experience at Heavener! The Park Host was very helpful with our late arrival time. It was a little rough setting up camp so late, but so worth the view when we woke up! Sunrise and sunset were gorgeous against the fall colors! The park staff was super friendly and helpful, especially being greeted by Stoney the camp cat! The hike to the runes was quite an experience and blue trail was a great workout 😊 Look forward to returning…hopefully sooner than later!

Enjoyed our stay. Water was supposed to be on site. The spigot on the camp site was broken. Was able to get water from another site. Loved the Runestone and the trails. The camp staff were so nice and helpful.

Beautiful views. Clean and well kept areas. The camp host and workers were very helpful, generous and just all around amazing! We stayed during some crazy weather but it was all worth it with all the hospitality. Will definitely be returning!

OP views

This spot had a beautiful overlook. Amazing sunsets. You could see the stars. The trees really help with wind, which was good because we had a hard time getting the stakes in the ground in some spots. The restrooms were clean and the individual showers were hot and had amazing water pressure. Staying at the OP, there was a little bit of a walk to the bathroom but it was worth it. I did see a review about the train horns, there are train horns but none of us were bothered by it. It wasn't loud enough to wake us up and it was kinda cool being able to look down on the train. I can see if maybe you're a light sleeper you should bring ear plugs just in case. The trails were clean, well though out, and clearly marked. The staff was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, there was a burn ban when we were there, which would have made it a perfect trip. The fire ring was a good size and there was firewood for purchase. If you choose the OP there might be a few cars that stop by to see the view from the parking lot. This is not a remote camping spot. You should never cut down the trees in a park, and you should expect to see other people, after all, there are restrooms and showers. The park was quiet and it felt safe. It is perfect for first time campers, families and if you want to camp comfortably with a bathroom and shower option. The covered Pavillion was perfect for when it started to rain. We were able to pack up under the cover.
