About this site
Overview Fairview Campground is located at Canton Lake in northwest Oklahoma on the North Canadian River, 11 miles from the town of Canton. Canton Lake hosts a large number of campers, picnickers, boaters, fishermen, and hunters every year, as one of the few places in western Oklahoma to offer all of these activities. Recreation Canton Lake is known for its fishing opportunities, especially walleye fishing.
The Walleye Rodeo fishing derby is held annually in mid-May and draws thousands of visitors to the area for the 4 day event. The lake's gently sloping sandy beaches are inviting for swimmers and sunbathers. Personal watercraft use, tubing and water skiing are popular on the broad expanse of water parelling the dam where winds are subdued.
Facilities Fairview is a group campsite that's a popular destination for family reunions and other groups looking for a large secluded camping area. It can accommodate up to 100 people, four RVs and several tents. Amenities include a large picnic shelter, pit toilets and drinking water.
Natural Features The shores of Canton Lake and the North Canadian River are covered with eastern cottonwood, post and blackjack oak, black willow, buttonbush and roughleaf dogwood.
