I don't know if LAWTON/MEDICINE PARK is too far for you but we really fell in love with the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge at Camp Doris that is inside the park. Buffalo roam free throughout the park and several deer as well. Is a very peaceful place to go. If you have kids with you they will really go crazy watching the Prairie Dogs...
Lots to do hiking and watching the sunset at night or just visiting the lakes and watching the Birds coming at dark... Scott Mtn is on the site which gives you a beautiful view of the local towns around the refuge...
Good eating at a place with direct access from the Refuge called MEERS which serves Buffalo meat...
They have both camp sites with hookups and no hookups. Controlled access after hours... You can tell the sites were originally setup for tent camping but they have several sections where your 5th wheel will work just fine...
Medicine park has a couple of good old country honky tonks but you will have to deal with the controlled access after a pretty early time (forget when it was)
Not many places in Medicine Park for groceries so bring all of that with you or plan on driving back towards Lawton during the day... The only place we found was a LOVES TRUCK STOP just off I44 at the Medicine Park exit...
This would be a typical camping spot on one of the Refuge areas at Camp Doris...
This is our setup at a no-hookup site running off our batteries... They have central located bath room buildings all over Camp Doris.
Check out their home page which has alot of photos to view...
