Dam Site (Fort Gibson Lake)

Dam Site Campground offers a unique and rugged outdoor experience situated directly below the Fort Gibson Dam on the west bank of the Grand River. This location is perfect for those who enjoy a back-to-basics approach, as the site offers primitive camping with no electric or water hookups available. The area is defined by its proximity to the expansive 20,000-acre Fort Gibson Lake, making it a prime destination for anglers and water enthusiasts looking to explore the river and lake environments.

Following flood recovery efforts, the campground remains open for both day use and primitive tent or RV camping. Visitors can take advantage of the excellent fishing opportunities, particularly for black bass and white bass, or enjoy swimming and boating on the nearby lake. While the facilities are limited, the site maintains a peaceful atmosphere for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the natural surroundings.

This campground is best suited for self-sufficient tent campers and RV travelers who prefer a rustic, off-grid experience. Whether you are planning a weekend of fishing or simply looking for a quiet spot to set up camp near the water, Dam Site provides an accessible year-round base for exploring the northeastern Oklahoma landscape.
