In the agency’s own words
Wildwood is located on the east side of Fort Gibson Lake in northeastern Oklahoma. Most of the campsites back up to the water’s edge and offer easy access to moor boats overnight. The campsites are well laid out and offer plenty of space for camping equipment. Keep reading
Recreation
Wildwood is a prime location for camping, boating, fishing and swimming. Playground equipment, horseshoe pit and grass volleyball court offer a change of pace from the normal water related activities. The park offers a boat ramp and courtesy dock. Anglers enjoy fishing for bass, crappie and several varieties of catfish.
Natural Features
Wildwood is surrounded by a mixed hardwood forest and offers a popular scenic drive along State Highway 80 North. Take your time and enjoy the many twists and turns as you meander through the wooded hills. The lake’s 225 miles of shoreline and thousands of acres of public hunting lands are abundant with wildlife.

What you actually pay
Derived by CAMPANAC: the agency’s published rates for this season, $16–$24 a night, plus one $8 recreation.gov reservation fee for the booking. A weekend here means Friday and Saturday night, booked once. Optional charges (an extra vehicle, a second tent, a dump-station fee) are listed separately and aren’t in this total.

Who keeps the booking fee
The agency’s own policy text says the reservation fee and the cancellation processing fee are “retained by the reservation service contractor”, and that a campground concessionaire will decline to refund them because “they did not receive these fees”. Recreation.gov is run under contract by Booz Allen Hamilton. What share of your booking fee the contractor keeps isn’t published in any federal dataset we can read, so we print no number for it.

The price is derived by CAMPANAC, not published per site: the per-night rate this campground publishes for each site’s own site type. 31 of the 32 sites listed carry one, and a site whose type has no published rate sits out of the price rather than being called free.

The agency files 1 more record here that isn’t a site for the night. It files it as day use. It’s in the table above, marked for what it is, and it isn’t counted as a site.
OpenStreetMap has no toilet mapped within 1 km of this campground, so no site here carries a toilet distance. That’s a gap in the map, not a finding about the campground.
