Roman Nose State Park has 33 tent campsites in seven campgrounds offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Scattered throughout the park, Roman Nose campsites are equipped with outdoor grills, a camp store to buy forgotten amenities, picnic areas, restrooms and showers. Outdoor swimming pools are throughout the park, and horseback rides available at the Roman Nose General Store and Stables. The park offers discounted group rates and has teepees for rent between April and October.
Roman Nose has a total of 47 RV sites, 12 with full RV hookups -- which require an additional fee -- and 35 with water and electric capabilities only. The park has waterside spots on Lake Watonga and hookups near the Two Lakes Trailhead, all of which are pet-friendly and a number of which offer shade. Roman Nose lets visitors use picnic structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, and has a camp store nearby for additional supplies.
Roman Nose State Park has 11 cabins for rent throughout the park. The park's basic cabins are situated in two areas -- one called Turkey Roost and another close to the Pack Saddle equestrian trail -- both accessible from the State Highway 8A park entrances. Equipped with stoves, coffeepots, sinks and refrigerators, cabins are designed to sleep up to four guests, with a queen bed and a queen pullout sofa. The cabins also include a grill and picnic table.
The park also has two backcountry camping opportunities for a more secluded camping experience. The first campsite, at the south end of Lake Watonga, is nestled in tall cedars and protected from wind on three sides. The other backcountry campsite, Creekside Perch, sits on the Bitter Creek shore on the north end of the park. Backcountry camping requires a permit and reservation through the ranger's office. Campers must follow fire regulations and carry out their trash.
