Foss
Overview
Foss State Park serves as a premier destination for water enthusiasts in Western Oklahoma. Perched on the shores of the largest lake in the region, this park offers a harmonious blend of relaxation and outdoor adventure. It is a well-maintained facility that provides a refreshing escape for travelers trekking along the Interstate 40 corridor or those seeking a peaceful lakeside retreat for an extended stay in nature.
Location & Surroundings
Nestled in Custer County, the park is defined by the expansive Foss Lake and the winding Washita River. The surrounding landscape is characterized by rolling prairies and wide-open Oklahoma skies that offer stunning sunset views. While it remains conveniently close to the main highway, the park feels secluded, offering views of native grasslands and a quiet atmosphere that is perfect for stargazing away from city lights.
Amenities & Park Features
RVers have several options, but the Cottonwood campground is particularly popular for its full hookup sites and level concrete pads. The park caters to large rigs with ease, ensuring a stress-free setup for big-rig travelers. Visitors have access to clean comfort stations, seasonal showers, and several picnic areas. For those who enjoy staying active, the park features a multi-purpose trail system and a well-regarded disc golf course that winds through the natural terrain.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The lake is the center of activity, making it a hotspot for boating and fishing for species like walleye, catfish, and striped bass. If you prefer land-based fun, the park offers equestrian trails and a designated swimming beach area. A short drive leads to the Washita National Wildlife Refuge, where nature photographers can spot a diverse array of migratory birds and local fauna in their protected natural habitat.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is a fantastic choice for active families who want a variety of recreational activities in one spot. It is equally suited for big-rig owners looking for paved sites and full amenities in a natural, rustic setting. Whether you are a dedicated angler or a traveler needing a high-quality stopover in Western Oklahoma, this park offers the space and serenity required for a memorable outdoor experience.

We went for the walking trail that I found on my GPS. There was no sign or parking area. It was easy walking and the lake was pretty. Camping area looked flat and there's a ranger station.

Early March....not many campers but good level concrete site; good, clean power supply and good water pressure. Park is beautiful and so peaceful by the lake. Toilets/showers are well maintained and clean. If we're ever in this neck of the woods again, we will definitely stay again.

Amazing park! We absolutely loved it here and wish they would have had an opening for another night so we could stay longer. We got Site 1 in Cedar Point and it's the most primo site in the park. It's on the point overlooking the reservoir and has its own path down to the wayer. We were able to get in the water and throw the ball with our dog, so he was in heaven. The sites are clean, paved, level, have a great picnic table and the nicest fire ring we've ever had. They have super clean showers and restrooms. The only drawback is the crazy amount of flies, but they left at dusk. Fantastic campground. Book CP001. You'll love it!

Beautiful campground area with views of the water. We were at the cedar point campground, with electric and water hookup in a pull through site for $30. Very quiet with pretty fruit trees and level sites. The sites are right up close to the water also. Plus had great phone reception, surprisingly.

Beautiful area but poorly managed by the state park higher ups. They want $10 to even look at the lake and $30 for camping. Lots of trash and rude neighbors. Cool beach with cabanas, but they don’t clean it so it’s covered in food, flies and trash. They still want $10 to see it. Other day use areas were unusable. They still want $10. Area seems to be a ghost town. Probably cause of the state park ruining the area with high fees and no upkeep.

This was an incredible experience!!! It was so beautiful and cool! We got 2 camping sites right by the lake. It was me, my fiancé, my dad, my 2 sisters, a family friend and her 2 kids plus 2 dogs! We had a fun time swimming, fishing and making smores! The water was amazing as well not to warm or cold! Perfect for swimming! We definitely want to go again next year!! 10 out of 10 experience!!

Beautiful spot to camp. Very quiet during our mid week visit. Clean bathrooms and showers.

What a beautiful lake with great sunset and sunrise views. The lot we had was a great size, with tons of shade. The lake is perfect for boaters. Unfortunately, we were there on a holiday weekend where there were so many boats, we were unable to do any fishing. By Sunday morning, the restrooms were unusable. Our "leashed " dogs were confronted twice by unleashed ones. And we couldn't keep the ticks off us or the dogs, so we had to abandon ship early.

I stayed at the Cedar Point RV campground and was ecstatic with the set-up of the sites and magnificent views of the lake. Such a treat to stay in such an attractive and well-maintained campground. Just outside the RV campground were beautiful picnic areas, tent camping sites, a small playground for kids and a frisbee golf course, all well kept and inviting. Unfortunately the marina was under construction but you could still go to the boat ramp for the view. Foss Lake is huge and has multiple areas. I drove around to check all of them out. The RV sites didn't have the great lake views as Cedar Point but were completely serviceable, and each had its own personality. The Visitor Center is clean and in addition to some souvenirs and maps, contains a few exhibits (a beautifully preserved white deer greets you). The young lady working the desk when I stopped in for a map was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Awesome all around. Oklahoma State Parks got it right with this one.

Our stay at Foss State Park was at the Sandy Beach campground. 10 sites with most having a nice view of the lake. Park was clean and had showers/bathrooms at the top of the hill a few hundred feet from sites along with the dump station and dumpster. The shore was lined with rip rap rock, so I'm not sure why it was called sandy beach. We had a pleasant stay and would stay again. We were in site #8, and all were back in sites.
