* Wichita Mountains Campground Review
* Doris Campground in Oklahoma
* Camping in the Wichita Mountains

Have you ever stumbled upon a place that was simply amazing…so amazing that you could hardly wait to go back? For me, that place is Doris Campground in Oklahoma. I first visited in January of 2020. Ever since then, my mind keeps flashing back to all the good times I had during my visit. When my memories of it just wouldn’t go away, I knew I had to go back for another visit.

Top 10 reasons why I love this place so much:

1. The abundance of wildlife! While I was there, I saw longhorn steer, bison, deer, turkeys, turtles, and lots of birds.

2. The abundance of lakes adds to its beautiful scenery. There are a total of 13 lakes within the refuge.

3. Lots of great hiking trails! There are about 15 miles of marked trails.

4. While many newer RV parks tend to remind me of a bland & boring parking lot, this place has so much character. It’s loaded with lots of trees which provide for a sense of both peacefulness and privacy.

5. At night, it’s extremely dark & peaceful. It’s so dark that it’s nearly impossible to find the bath house without a flashlight. The only noise comes from the howling coyotes off in the distance.

6. There’s no cell service, which makes it much easier to remain present and enjoy your camping experience. But, if you do need to grab cell service, Crater Lake has a solid signal and is just 2.3 miles away.

7. Meers Store & Restaurant is just 9 miles away. It’s a great place to grab dinner as they’re wellknown for their 1pound hamburgers!

8. They have a brand new bath house. They also have multiple new vault toilets, which are surprisingly nice.

9. Because it’s a Wildlife Refuge, the deer are quite tame and so much fun to watch.

10. I feel like it’s such a healthy place to visit. The trees & wildlife and rivers & lakes are full of good vibes & positive energy. This area allows for time to heal and even find a bit of mental clarity!!

Doris Campground contains 23 electric sites, 47 nonelectric sites, 20 semiprimitive (walkin tent sites), and 3 group sites. Most campsites are sizable enough for RVs and trailers. 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 of a centrally located bath house. Water is available via water stations throughout the campground. A dump station is provided for RVs and trailers.

ABOUT ME:
► I grew up in Kalamazoo, MI and graduated with a Marketing degree from Oakland University.
► I moved to Longmont, CO in November 2016 and fell in love with all the beautiful hiking trails that Colorado has to offer. So, in April 2012, the Nash Potatoes Outdoor Show was born.
► In November 2019, I took a 4month camping trip in my popup camper. This gave me an opportunity to travel, explore, unwind, and create lots of great videos.
► In December 2020, I began recording a series of downhill skiing videos in Colorado. These quickly became popular and my passion for YouTube was reignited!
► I actually had so many great memories of my first camping trip that I decided to do another one. So, in April 2021, I converted a 12foot enclosed trailer into a camper and documented the whole process.
► In June 2021, I reached 1,000 subscribers and was able to monetize my channel.
► By January 2023, I was already at 2,000 subscribers and counting!
► The Nash Potatoes Outdoor Show allows me to share all of my experiences with you. Join me on my adventure as I talk about life, laughter, exploration, and creating content for YouTube...enjoy!
