Blaine Park

US Army Corps of Engineers campground, 13 sites

Overview

Blaine Park is located on Canton Lake in northwest Oklahoma on the North Canadian River just 2.5 miles from the town of Canton. The area hosts a large number of campers, picnickers, boaters, fishermen and hunters every year as one of the few places in western Oklahoma to offer so many activities.

Recreation

Canton Lake is known for its fishing opportunities, especially walleye fishing. The Walleye Rodeo fishing derby is held annually in mid-May and draws thousands of visitors to the area for the 4 day event. Use of personal watercraft, tubing and water skiing are popular on the broad expanse of water paralleling the dam where winds are subdued and the lake's gently sloping sandy beaches are inviting for swimmers and sunbathers.

Facilities

This campground's central location and scenic setting make it a very popular destination. It offers 13 non-electric tent sites, however the pads are big enough to accommodate camper trailers, you will just need to bring a generator.* Amenities include pit toilets, solar powered well drinking water, a nature trail, and a playground. 

*Generators that are NOT the "quiet models" will need to be turned off after 10PM because the noise they omit is obnoxious and disruptive to your neighboring campers. They can be turned back on after 6AM.*

Natural Features

The shores of Canton Lake and the North Canadian River have several varieties of trees natural to the area which include eastern cottonwood, post and blackjack oak and black willow. The campground has these species and also has been suplimented with other shade tree species including american and lacebark elm, sycamore and silver maple.
