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 contains 3 group camping sites, 23 single family electric sites, 47 single family non-electric sites, and 20 semi-primitive, walk-in tent sites. Most campsites are sizeable enough for RVs and trailer. Each campsite is equipped with a picnic table, fire ring, and grill. Roads are paved. Flush toilets and showers are provided within easy walking distance in a centrally located shower/restroom complex. The group campsites and Loops A and D have chemical or vault toilets only, and no water. Water is available via hydrants throughout the campground. A dump station is provided for RVs and trailers.

Natural Features

Explore ancient granite mountains. Find yourself in a cedar forest. Dare to discover wide open spaces and fresh water lakes meant to support wildlife like the American bison and Rocky Mountain elk. Fish. Hike. Photograph. Immerse yourself in the wild.

Nearby Attractions

Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge encompasses roughly 60,000 acres. Doris Campground is centrally located allowing visitors opportunities to explore all areas of the refuge with a short drive. Head up Mount Scott or hang out at Prairie Dog Town. Bring your fishing pole, a set of binoculars, or your camera. The possibilities are endless.

Doris campground is wonderful, beautiful, plenty of shady spots to park your RV. The sites are not on top of each other like many other campgrounds and the bathroom/showers are clean. There are plenty of trails to hike of varying difficulty, very scenic and wildlife always makes the hike all the more fun. One of my very favorite places to get away from it all.

My family and I drove up from Houston, TX. We camped here for three nights, and our stay was so peaceful. The area was clean, and restrooms/showers (near RV’s are best!) were not too far of a walk. I do recommend bringing an extra bright flashlight for night walks to RR (we did see coyotes but kept our distance) and a collapsible wagon to make unloading and camp setup easier. We checked in on Saturday and the campgrounds were fairly full (make sure to secure all food and dispose of waste properly, raccoons were especially active this night), but by late Sunday morning mostly everyone was packed and checked out. The next two nights were slow and quiet, it was absolutely perfect! During the day my husband and I + our son (8yrs old) hiked Little Baldy Trail, Jed Johnson Tower, both of which had some uphill rocky terrain, still completely worth it and my son loved the little challenge. We visited the Holy City, and drove up to the Mt Scott viewing area (beautiful views). We even visited Medicine Park, bought some ice cream and strolled around for about 1.5 hours. We bought some cute souvenirs to remember our trip at the local shops! All that being said, I still feel like there’s so much more to explore within the refuge… This was our first tent/camp experience ever and we’re excited to book again, since our stay was so amazing here! 9/10 ⭐️

The wife and I was looking for a place to get away for a few days so we decided to go to Doris Park. Great decision on our part as we had a great time hiking and watching the wildlife. Meet a few people to visit with as well. It’s a great place to visit!!
