Camping at Tall Chief Cove near Skiatook

Public campground · Skiatook · 49 campsites

A forested campground near hiking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

The campground provides basic comforts alongside outdoor recreation: covered picnic tables, restrooms and showers, a group picnic shelter for up to 200 people, and on-site recreation including a volleyball court, basketball court, disc golf course and horseshoe pits that guests with reservations may use. Electric hookups are available at the individual sites, and the site mix (49 RV/tent-capable and 1 tent-only) makes it suitable for a range of rigs and tents; confirm hookup availability and site selection when you reserve.

How far ahead to book Tall Chief Cove

For July weekends, book about 170 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 92 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (20,892 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
