Best time to visit Arrowhead State Park
Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable windows for RV travel to the Arrowhead area, typically April through early June and again from mid-September through October, when daytime temperatures are warm but humidity and storm activity ease. Midsummer brings reliable swimming and boating weather, but heat indices can climb well past 100°F and afternoon thunderstorms are common. Winter is mild compared to the northern Plains yet can include cold snaps and occasional ice, so shoulder-season travelers should monitor forecasts. Weekends around major summer holidays see the heaviest boat traffic on Lake Eufaula.

Things to do at Arrowhead State Park
- Boating and fishing on Lake Eufaula EasyRV parking available
Lake Eufaula is the largest lake in Oklahoma and the core attraction at the Arrowhead site. Anglers target largemouth bass, crappie, catfish, and sand bass across its many coves and points.
- Lakeside picnicking and swimming EasyRV parking available
Day-use areas along the peninsula offer water access for swimming and shoreline picnics. The open oak-shaded lawns are easy to reach with a towed vehicle from an RV base.
- Wildlife viewing and birding EasyRV parking available
The cross-timbers shoreline of Lake Eufaula draws bald eagles in winter along with herons, egrets, and white-tailed deer year-round. Quiet mornings and evenings are best for sightings from park roads and shoreline pullouts.
- Day trip to Robbers Cave State Park ModerateRV parking available
Robbers Cave State Park lies in the Sans Bois Mountains roughly an hour southeast of Arrowhead and offers hiking, rock formations, and a historic outlaw hideout. It pairs well with an Arrowhead lake base for RV travelers wanting varied terrain. travelok.com/state-parks/robbers-cave-state-park
- Visit Eufaula and the Eufaula Dam EasyRV parking available
The town of Eufaula sits across the lake and offers restaurants, shops, and views of the Eufaula Dam on the Canadian River. It's an easy drive from the Arrowhead area for supplies, fuel, and a change of pace.
- Explore the Choctaw Nation Capitol in Tuskahoma EasyRV parking available

How to get to Arrowhead State Park
The park lies off US-69 near Canadian, Oklahoma, roughly a 2 to 2.5 hour drive southeast of Oklahoma City and about 2 hours south of Tulsa via the Indian Nation Turnpike and US-69. Fort Smith, Arkansas is about 90 minutes to the east. RV drivers should note that US-69 is a heavily used truck corridor with construction zones and stoplight towns, and the Indian Nation Turnpike is a toll road, so plan for tolls or a cash lane suitable for larger rigs. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Tulsa International Airport (TUL), with Will Rogers World Airport (OKC) a comparable option to the west.
