Overview
About Doris Campground
Overview Worn by time and nature, the Wichita Mountains loom large above the prairie in southwest Oklahoma—a lasting refuge for wildlife. Situated just outside the Lawton/Ft. Sill area, Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge preserves approximately 60,000 acres of mixed grass prairie, ancient granite mountains, and fresh water lakes and streams for the benefit of wildlife and the American people. Best known for its roaming herds of bison, longhorn, and Rocky Mountain elk, Wichita Mountains also offers quality opportunities for wildlife dependent recreation including fishing, bird watching, wildlife photography, hiking, camping, and kayaking. Recreation Doris Campground is a recreational hub for visitors to the Wichita Mountains. Situated along the shoreline of Quanah Parker Lake, it’s a stone’s throw away from quality fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and hiking. Campers can toss a line in the water or start up the Little Baldly trail for a picturesque hike. The Visitor Center, additional trails, and notable features like Mt. Scott are just a few miles down the road. Facilities Doris Campground is a recreational hub for visitors to the Wichita Mountains.

Our Take
What makes Doris Campground special
Doris Campground places you inside the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, one of Oklahoma's most spectacular natural treasures. Across 60,000 acres of ancient granite peaks and mixed-grass prairie, free-roaming herds of bison, Texas longhorn, and elk share the landscape with you — wildlife sightings are practically guaranteed. The 91 sites offer a solid mix of options, and the surrounding terrain delivers surprisingly rugged hiking for the Southern Plains, with granite boulder scrambles and panoramic summit views. Spring wildflower season is breathtaking, painting the prairie in blankets of color beneath craggy peaks. Fall brings bugling elk and comfortable temperatures ideal for long days on the trail. Arrive early on weekends, as the refuge draws visitors from across Oklahoma and north Texas. Bring binoculars for wildlife viewing and sturdy shoes for the rocky trails. Doris Campground is a perfect fit for nature photographers, wildlife watchers, hiking families, and anyone who wants to experience the surprising wild heart of southwest Oklahoma.
