We had so much fun at the Lake Murray Lodge this summer on the 4th of July! The room are small, but clean and very cool! Nice air conditioning and we liked the restaurant at the Lodge. Plus, the pool was so nice. There is a lot of stuff to do around there like paddle boats, fishing, renting jet skis, or renting a pontoon boat for the day. Next time ...
I highly recommend you visit Lake Murray State Park if you are looking for a relaxing getaway. We live about 45 minutes away so we go whenever we can. If you are planning for staying for more than just day-use, my best advice is to rent an RV or a travel trailer. You will enjoy it so much more. The lodge and cabins are in horrible shape and you ...

Disappointed
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/23/08
I am in my mid 50's and have stayed in the Lodge and the cabins many times over the years. My Mom worked at the Lodge back in the early 60's and it we top class back then. I have stayed in the cabins recently and find that they are really in bad shape. I was given a cabin that didn't even have a working toilet. As in the other reviews I ...
My family and I have gone to Lake Murray cabins for the last 8 years and we love it! It is like stepping back to a simpler time where we can spend time as a family w/o the distractions of daily life. The cabins are old but well kept (for the most part) and the grounds are nice.
It is what it is and we have no illusion of a 5 star hotel room ...

We loved it and will go back often
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/23/06
The sports water park was especially enjoyable. The people there were knowledgeable and helpful and I felt my kids were safe at all times. We ate at the lodge resturant just one time because the food choices were limited and you did not get much for your buck. We stayed in the cabins. They are in real need of repair and they were not clean. ...

Beautiful Clear Clean Lake
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/14/06
This was a really nice place to go. It was like stepping back in time to the 50's. You drive in at the gate to the lodge and it feels like you are in the movie "Dirty Dancing". The cabins look nice from the outside. We stayed at the lodge and really enjoyed it. When I went to the front desk to check in the place was totally ...

Upsetting
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/20/05
I have been coming to Lake Murray since I was 4 years old, and that is nearly 40 years ago. I stayed each year at least once and most years, more then that. I have always had good experiences with my stays, and brought several friends to the area. I also spent my honeymoon there six years ago. I have a lot of fond memories of the place, but ...

great getaway
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/06/05
My family stayed in a lakeview cabin and loved it. It was within walking distance to the fishing dock which pleased the fishermen in the family and there was a park nearby which pleased the kids. The cabin needed some repair to the screened in front porch but other than that, it was a clean, nice cabin.
The park rangers were friendly and ...

Pathetic
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/29/05
No working AC except in the guest rooms. Filthy rooms that smelled horrible. Raw sewage backing up in cabins. This place is a disaster waiting to happen with exposed electrical wiring and rotting structural members. Complaints to the State of Oklahoma about the conditions (Director of Dept of Tourism and Lt Governor's office) have been ignored. It's cheap, but even the low price doesn't make up for the disgusting condition.

The Lake Murray Disaster
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/29/05
Although Lake Murray is a beautiful location to visit, the state lodge accomodations there are dreadful. There was no A/C in the main lodge area (for months from what we heard from the employees), horrible service in the dining room, filthy rooms that smelt of fungus, rotting beams in the back porch area, no working ice machines, no bartender or ...
