| Chandler is located right off the Turner Turnpike (I-44) between Oklahoma City & Tulsa. To get to Bell Cow Lake equestrian campground & trails (lake area C), you should take Hwy. 18 north from Chandler. This will be a left turn past the toll gate if you use the turnpike. Just north of town Hwy. 18 crosses over the turnpike. Just beyond, a green & white sign will direct you to turn left (west) on a blacktop road to the Chandler lakes. After a straight stretch, the main road makes a wide turn to the right. Do not take the turn but go straight which is still heading west. The equestrian campground is about two miles further on & is well marked.
The equestrian campgrounds are public with day & overnight camping. The camp is big, open, & well-maintained. There is room for even the largest trailers. Primitive & RV sites are available with picket poles. RV sites have electrical hook-up, H2O, picnic table, & grills. There are clean restrooms with hot showers. A manure dump station is located in the campground. You are asked to deposit your bagged manure & old hay at this location. There is also a horse cleaning area with a chute where you can hose down your horse or give them a bath. The lighted pavilion is handy for meetings or family reunion. |
