Overview
The Point Campground is located at the fun-filled Lake of the Arbuckles, which is considered a recreational oasis in south-central Oklahoma.
As part of the Chickasaw National Recreation Area, the Point impresses visitors with its diversity of natural resources. The area’s unique plants, spring waters and geological formations are unlike any in the surrounding territory.
Explore the prairie-landscape for a chance to see bison, white-tailed deer, opossum, gophers or black-tailed jackrabbits.

Hikers, birdwatchers and wildflower enthusiasts enjoy exploring this diverse ecosystem.
The streams and lakes cater to boaters, swimmers, and anglers, and the Multi-Use Trail is enjoyable for hikers, bikers and horseback riders.
Hunting is also permitted in varying seasons.
