LETRA Water Slide, located within the Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area (LETRA) at Fort Sill, OK, is a popular seasonal attraction offering aquatic fun. The facility typically features a large swimming pool, two water slides (one large and one smaller for children), a splash pad, and a snack bar. It serves as a recreational amenity for military personnel, their families, and authorized civilians, providing a refreshing escape during warmer months.
Specific pool temperatures for the LETRA Water Slide facility are not publicly provided. As an outdoor recreational pool and water slide, the water temperature is generally unheated and subject to ambient air temperature and sun exposure.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Letra is a popular spot for camping and relaxation, with many finding the swimming prices reasonable. However, there's conflicting information regarding the waterslides; some visitors enjoyed them as open and fun, while others reported them as consistently closed or confirmed closed for the season due to COVID-19, making it advisable to call ahead. The bathrooms are noted as basic but acceptable for a lake, and lifeguards are friendly and alert. A major point of criticism is the visitor center, described as an invasive experience for tourists due to requirements like background checks and flash pictures.
Reviews
You will need to get a background check, flash picture, and more at the visitor center. Very invasive, not for tourists.
My friends and I love coming out to letra for camping and just relaxing, and this year, the slides were back open, and we have been out on them every time we've been out here. There's only 2, but they are "free" to ride, and the lines aren't crazy! I've had tons of fun so far!
Tons of fun and the price can’t be beat. The bathrooms leave something to be desired, but it’s a lake so lower your expectations. The life guards are friendly and alert.
Paid 7$ to go swim which letra has always been nice to camp and swim but the water slide is never open, call before you go out there!
According to the LETRA office, the slide is closed for the season due to COVID-19
