We have camped here annually and won't be back. They have added tent camping closer to RV campsites making it VERY tight camping. We had construction right outside our spot making it dangerous for the kids to play. It must be one people managing it then the years before because it surely needed some upkeeping and we had never experienced this before. You have to pay to even stand on the fishing docks and watch the kids or others fish even if you don't have a fishing pole. Oh and did I mention you have to pay even park there to walk the trails or fishing dock even if yo are camping there. Splash pad is nice but very costly. Won't be back.

We stayed in cabin 8 for four nights. The office staff was polite at check in but I had to ask about how to get to the cabin as no instructions were offered. The Office Manager? offered me a dog treat for our pup. Our pup did not like the cabin at all. She pulled away and tried to go under the car every time we went in to the cabin. It smelled like cigarette smoke to me inside the cabin but maybe the dog smelled other pets or cleaner as she didn't want to be on the floor at all. When I registered the website said to bring our own cooking utensils so we did. I tried to call the park before we went to see how big the fridge/freezer were to see what would food items to bring. No answer on the phone and mailbox was full. The Office MGR? asked what time was dinner? I said we need to see how big the fridge/freezer is and need to go to the store to buy food to cook so they told me where to go to buy food. (Ft. Gibson Harps). The cook top worked okay but one of the burners was too big for its port so it stood up over the top of the stove. The oven had a knob with only one mark about half way around on it so we were always trying to figure out how to use the stove temp. We bought canned cinnamon rolls to cook for our last morning but burned them because we could not figure out the knob issue. We mostly ate sandwiches. The shower floor felt soft and the soap dish had been broken off so we had to use the above toilet shelves for our soap and shampoo. We we had to reach out of the shower to retrieve the soap and shampoo each time. The television and wifi did not work at all. My husband told the office staff at check out and they said they would have someone check it out. Several of the rock boulders n the front of the cabin were loose and needed to be recemented back in place. Maintenance needs to take a good look at each cabin and do fix ups to correct issues. The same office Mgr? asked my husband if he wanted a dog treat a check out. He got a dog treat and when he got into the car I said I smell dog poo. He had some kind of liquid dog poo on the treat so assume it was dipped in it. We threw it away and cleaned up with baby wipes we had in the car. The camp grounds themselves looked well maintained. The discovery center was closed. We were wanting to play miniature golf but the $6 per adult fee was a deterrent. We did walk on several of the walking paths. It was comfortable to sit by the beach in the shade each evening. The lake was small and not too big of a crowd.

This was our very first camping trip and couldn’t be more pleased. Nice clean site with extremely friendly staff. We had our 20 month old granddaughter with us and the splash pad was a major highlight of our stay. If you plan to utilize the splash pad, use the Gobbler Run sites or you’ll need to drive to the splash pad and pay additional parking. We stayed in site 42 which was right next to the splash pad, but quite a trek to the bath house. However, there are restrooms to utilize outside the splash pad, just no showers. The park hosts family friendly activities for an additional (minimal) cost as well. This park will definitely be on our “visit again” list.

Do not recommend this place to spend a weekend, especially during the summer. Stuff to do is very limited. kayak, fishing and hiking is really all there is. you have to pay extra to do anything, splash pad was $8 a person, and you weren’t allowed to take your own snacks or drinks in. can’t even take in a water bottle. the one and only swim beach is very small and covered in goose crap. the water area was very nasty. the camp sites were very small, showers small, nasty, no warm water. have to pay for a parking pass on top of your reservation, they check 24/7 to catch people, we had our vehicle check at least 3 times in the 2.5 days we were there. my father got a ticket for not having a parking pass when in fact he did have one. they made him go up to the front office so they could check in there system. highly recommend not visiting unless you are fine with scorching in the heat all day and spending a lot of time xtra money to do anything.

I couldn’t find any good pics of the cabins so I made sure to take some. This was the best time! So much to do for everyone! The park was very clean and not crowded. The cabin on the lake has 1 bedroom, one bath. The bedroom has one full bed and the “hospital” bed is twin. It has 2 pull out full sleepers in the living room and they were comfortable! It has a coffee maker, toaster and hair dryer. Usually comes with pots pans etc but they had to take them out because of the pandemic. The sheets smelled so clean and the house was so cozy! The dock was great as well! The kids enjoyed fishing off of it!

One of my more favorite OK state parks and certainly one of the best maintained. Great access to the lake with a swimming beach. An extensive trail system with primitive camping as well as camp sites. We stayed in tents, but the cabins looked like a future stay! There's a kids splash park, that we adults with teens had a great time cooling off. While we had fun, it was really hot -- next time will be spring or fall.

My friend and I stayed one night in a one bedroom cabin, # 14. Cabin was quite nice but could use a little maintenance. I slept on the fold out couch and it was quite comfy from the one I used at another OK State Park. The outside screened in area really needed to be cleaned especially on the ceiling. Cob webs all over and screens need to be fixed. Bathroom was pretty small and not much water pressure at all and no hooks to have your stuff on! Refrigerator was full size and a 4 burner stove and oven. We didn't cook. Otherwise it was a nice park and cabin.

First off, We weren't told when reserving our cabin that the Marina was closed until Memorial Day so we had to drive back to Braggs to get Ice, Milk & Eggs after we got there, Signed in, finally after 20 minutes of trying, Receptionist got our bank card to go thru, then drove down to the Marina and found it closed (would have been nice if we were told in advance that we couldn't buy Ice or anything else till Memorial Day, which was two weeks away.
The park is nice but not Senior Citizen Friendly, there is not one cabin that has level ground in front of the cabin, Fire Pits are located off to the side of the cabin and the ground is so unlevel you can't sit in a lawn chair safely. Fire Pits have Never been cleaned out, full of old Gray Burnt Mud, had to shovel out before I could make a decent fire.
Other than that, we had a quiet Week.

We love this park! There are cute cabins and rv and tent camping spots. The splash pad is amazing with a slide. The marina has a small store and grill. You can also rent a boat, kayak etc. There are some short trails that are perfect for families with smaller children. Also the kids fishing pond is nice. There are plenty of deer. There is also an elk that lives there. I have heard that she got loose from someone’s herd. Anyway she liked it here and you can spot her pretty easy

Greenleaf was a true delight from clean, well kept bathrooms, to helpful, friendly staff. Everyone went out of their way to make our visit an experience we won't forget. My dad is disabled but he had no problem getting around, he was able to drive his scooter all over, even drove down the dock to fish. Steven and John from maintenance and Assist Manager James came by to check on us to see if we needed anything. Nicki and Joey from Marina let us picnic on their dock and feed fish and turtles while we ate. I've already told family and friends they must try Greenleaf State Park. SO MUCH FUN!

The whispering winds reunion center was booked by friends of mine for a wedding. They decorated themselves and had full use of the kitchen. How far in advance must it be booked and at what cost? JT & Carolyn Branch said it was very affordable.

I looked it up for you! Hope this helps
Greenleaf State Park is one of Oklahoma's original seven parks and one of its most scenic and family-oriented. The park includes Lake Greenleaf as well as cabins, campgrounds, family recreation facilities and nature hiking trails.
The lake cabins and other facilities at Greenleaf State Park were built in the 1930s by the CCC, WPA and German prisoners-of-war. The original buildings, constructed of native stone, remain a lasting and beautiful tribute to those who built them. Originally, the park had 14 cabins, built in the 30s, with bathrooms, kitchens, heat and air, dishes and linens. All cabins have satellite television. These cabins are approximately 350 sq ft (33 m2) in size.
Added on 1994, Cabin 15, or "Cabin on the Lake" was designed to meet the challenges of campers with physical disabilities. Donated by Telephone Pioneers of America, a national organization of active and retired Southwestern Bell employees, the $90,000 campsite was, at that time, one of three handicap accessible cabins in the nation.[3] [4]
In addition, the park features RV campgrounds, some with 50 amp service, as well as tent campsites, a community building, pavilion, enclosed shelter, outdoor shelter, seasonal fast food grill, 18-hole miniature golf course and laundry center. Guests will also enjoy the swimming pool, swim beach, heated fishing dock, amphitheater, nature center, playgrounds, hiking trails, horseshoes, volleyball courts and basketball courts.
The park naturalist offers astronomy programs, campfire programs, party barge tours of Greenleaf Lake and hay wagon rides, as well as arts and crafts, storytelling, nature hikes and more. No jet skis or wave runners are allowed on Greenleaf Lake. The kids' pond allows children 16 and under to fish at no charge with no permit required. The park also offers activities such as wildlife viewing, holiday events and boating on Greenleaf Lake.
Do you have wi-fi available in the camp grounds at Greenleaf state park.

Definitely no wi-fi and many areas, which are located down hill, will render a cell phone virtually useless except for texting. I could not get a signal anywhere until I got closer to the town of Braggs. The cabins do not have phones as well.
Prices of the cabins and if they might have availability in for a few days? Do they still have the heated fishing dock? Thanks

We paid right around $100 (a steal!) for a cabin on the weekend. As to the docks, I saw fishing docks, but don't know if they're heated. (It was too cold to get out of the car and see if they were heated, but I digress.) Try 1-918-487-5196, they're really helpful.
Thanks, which marina?

Not confident what they actually have available. It appeared they had one and the rate was around $350. Again not confident in that, but they had boats listed to rent just not sure what they were. Will have to call them and see what they have available.
