Lake Texoma has a lot more wild life than Lake Murray and lots of places to camp on the shore. It can be scary on the weekends because of alcohol and drug crazed lunatics operating heavy and loud equipment. e.g. the beaches on the public land across the lake from Eagles Roost are nice but covered with litter, quiet five nights a week, but loud until dawn the other two.
