Juniper Point Campground

The Juniper Point Campgrounds are some of the nicest campgrounds on Lake Texoma. In fact, Juniper Point is our favorite place to camp on Lake Texoma. There are two separate sections of Juniper Point, Juniper Point East and Juniper Point West. Both are beautiful sections of campground located right across the street from each other. Both campgrounds have their own boat ramps, restrooms, and camping areas. This campground is operated by the Army Corps of Engineers and appears to be very well cared for.

Juniper Point East

Juniper Point East is open each year between April and September. It is closed during the fall and winter months. This campground sits right on the banks of Lake Texoma. There is a very nice two lane boat ramp with a boat dock for use. Cost of the boat ramp is $3.

Most of the campsites are very heavily treed offering plenty of shade. There is also a nice swim beach for use when you need to cool off. This is a very nice campground for use in the summertime.

Juniper Point West

Juniper Point West is open year round. This area appears to be newer or at least more recently refurbished. The campsites and picnic tables look fairly new. The restrooms and showers appear to be new as well. Unlike Juniper East, these campsites are elevated on the cliffs and not right on the waters edge. The campsites are heavily treed and do offer up great views of Lake Texoma.

The Juniper Point campgrounds in total have 44 campsites with electrical and water hookups, and 25 basic sites without hookups. A day-use group picnic shelter with electricity is available as well.

Amenities of the campgrounds include:

  • Boat Ramp
  • Drinking Water
  • Dump Station
  • Entrance Station
  • Flush Toilets
  • Hiking
  • Pit Toilets
  • Showers
  • Trailheads
  • Vault Toilets
  • Water

Also nearby is the scenic Cross Timbers hiking trail. This trail that winds for 14 miles above the lake on rocky ledges and through blackjack woodland. Forty miles of equestrian trails surround the lake as well.
