Effective November 1, 2024
The Tulsa District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tenkiller Lake has scheduled the campground closures of Snake Creek, Chicken Creek, Cookson Bend, Elk Creek, Pettit Bay, and Strayhorn beginning November 1.
Pettit Bay I, Elk Creek, and Cookson Bend will leave gates open for Boat Ramp Use Only. These campgrounds will reopen on March 1st.
Carter’s Landing will remain open for camping throughout the winter with electric and water at several sites. Sizemore is also available for camping but does not provide water or electric.
Seasonal closures are in place for the efficient stewardship of public recreation facilities during times of the lowest visitation, and to reduce the high costs of waterline breaks during freezing weather.
