New listing
Big Bend Park is located on Canton Lake in northwest Oklahoma on the North Canadian River. 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. The campground offers 102 campsites with electricity and water hookups and 12 non-electric campsites. Many of the campsites feature panoramic views of the lake. There is also a day-use group picnic shelter, 4 boat ramps and a disc golf course (in the Big Bend Day Use Area). 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 four-day event. Personal watercraft use, tubing and water skiing are popular on the broad expanse of water paralleling the dam where winds are subdued, and gently sloping beaches on the northern side of the lake are an invitation to swimmers and sunbathers. The shores of Canton Lake have several varieties of trees natural to the area, including eastern cottonwood, post and blackjack oak and black willow. Other trees planted in the campground to supplement the shade for campsites include American elm, sycamore, lacebark elm and silver maple. A major attraction for hunters is the 14,862-acre Canton Wildlife Management Area. Operated by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, it is home to whitetail deer, wild turkey, bobwhite quail, squirrel, rabbits, dove and several varieties of waterfowl. There are several restaurants located within 3 miles of the lake, as well as a casino and 9 hole golf course, and Roman Nose State Park and Glass Mountains State Park are about a 30 minute drive from the lake.
