The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation has designated it a Trophy Bass Lake, and many game fish can be found in large numbers at Crowder Lake, including crappie, saugeye, blue gill and channel catfish, which makes it a straightforward day trip from any of the private parks.

Western Oklahoma has a long warm season and a short, variable winter. The area experiences a humid subtropical climate with hot summers and mild winters typical of central Oklahoma, and summer temperatures regularly reach the upper 80s to mid-90s while winter lows typically range from the mid-20s to low 30s. Spring and fall are the most comfortable windows for RV travel, and both bring the best fishing at Crowder Lake. Spring and summer thunderstorms are common as warm, moist Gulf air moves in, and storms can bring heavy rain, damaging winds, and hail. Peak tornado season occurs from April through June, so travelers should track NOAA and local warnings, and Wanderlust Crossings advertises 5 inground storm shelters throughout the park. Winter is usable for RVers with cold-weather rigs. Snow accumulations are typically light, but the area is prone to severe weather including thunderstorms, tornadoes, and occasional ice storms during winter months that can close roads for a day or two. Crowder Lake is open year-round, while private parks along I-40 stay in full operation through the winter.

Wanderlust Crossings sits about one mile off I-40 to the south, with paved roads, concrete pads and full hookups, and the park includes bathrooms and showers, WIFI, laundry facilities, propane refills, a dog wash, playground, two pet runs, and five in-ground storm shelters throughout the park. It is the most modern option in the area and suits big rigs and families. Atchley's Route 66 RV Park in Clinton is geared to overnight Route 66 travelers with full-hookup sites and laundry facilities. Water-Zoo Campground and Thomas RV Trailer Park round out the private options with simpler facilities. At Crowder Lake, the park gate closes to incoming traffic each night at 10 p.m. and is opened at 6 a.m., and park patrons can leave the park at any time as access to the outgoing lane is controlled by a one-way traffic-control device. Cell coverage in the surrounding countryside is spotty, so downloading maps in advance helps.
