Northeastern Oklahoma is lake country, pure and simple. There are plenty of reasons to visit this part of the state—the phenomenal cities, tallgrass prairies and wildlife preserves are just a few of them—but lakeside fun and relaxation is far and away the area’s biggest draw. We profiled the popular Grand Lake O' the Cherokees in our overview of Oklahoma's top lakes, but there are so many more fantastic lakes to be found in the region. Since it can be hard to figure out what lake is perfect for your next getaway, we’ve made it easier by overviewing some of the region’s top lakes and highlighting their most unique attractions. If you’re not already planning your next Green Country lakeside getaway, this rundown might be just the inspiration you need.
Eufaula
A diverse array of outdoor recreation makes Eufaula, Oklahoma a destination well worth exploring. Perched on the shores of Lake Eufaula – Oklahoma's largest, most peaceful lake – the city's 20-block downtown, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is made for strolling and shopping unique antique emporiums. Relax in comfort at the Calico Heights at Eufaula cabins, featuring tree-house views of the lake. Or, settle into cozy accommodations found at Snug Harbor Cabins. Get out and about riding horses on scenic trails at Little Turtle RV Park & Horse Resort, and for local flavor, unwind with sips of caffeine at High Street Coffee.
