§ 02 — 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.
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.
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.
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.
A major attraction for hunters is the 14,862-acre Canton Wildlife Management Area. This area, operated by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, is home for whitetail deer, wild turkey, dove, bobwhite quail, squirrel rabbits and several varieties of waterfowl. There are several resturants located within 3 miles of the lake and also a casino and 9 hole golf course. Roman Nose and Glass Mountains State Park are only about a half hour or so drive from the lake. There is also a Disc Golf Course about 12 miles away in the Big Bend Recreation Area
