Little River Park
RV Guide
Introduction
This sprightly park is vivid and picturesque with all the colors of natural flora surrounding it. Located in the southeast corner of Oklahoma, Little River Park is home to 3750 acres of dense woodlands and home to Pine Creek Lake that offers 74 miles of pristine shoreline. The glistening lake isn’t the only idyllic feature of this park, the hardwood-pine forest that borders the park adds its own charm, and on the far horizon, you can catch a glimpse of the magnificent Ouachita Mountain range.
When you get a chance to spend days in such tranquil and unruffled surroundings, few people can ever let that memory go. This is why, RV campers from all over the states come all packed and ready to experience the true delight of sleeping under the clear sky, with the river reflecting the moon, and the forest singing quietly.
The park offers a number of facilities and amenities that make outdoor recreation a lot more fun and convenient. And also a lack of it, for those who want to travel back in time when people had to search for water and live without basic amenities like electricity. The park has something to offer to everyone. The wide lake allows water lovers to fish and swim or take their boats and canoes far out into the lake waters to enjoy uninterrupted tranquility and serenity. Little River Park is the perfect little spot for a weekend getaway with friends, family and even colleagues.

Fishing
