Foss State Park, State park in western Oklahoma, United States.
Foss State Park is a recreation area in western Oklahoma built around Foss Lake with diverse outdoor activities. The grounds feature wooded sections, open meadows, and beach areas along the water, with trails winding through the surrounding landscape.
The lake was created in 1961 by the Bureau of Reclamation on the Washita River to supply water for nearby communities. The park was developed afterward to make the area accessible for public recreation and outdoor use.
The park serves as a gathering spot for local fishing enthusiasts and water sports fans who come throughout the year. People gather at the shoreline for informal picnics and social events, especially during warmer months.
The park offers various lodging options including tent sites, RV spots with electrical hookups, and cabins to suit different needs. Visitors should prepare for changing weather and seasonal variations, especially when planning water activities.
The park features five palapas at Sunset Beach and an air-conditioned shelter that are especially useful for larger groups. These structures allow visitors to spend time comfortably even during hot weather.
