Owner's note

Park at the Forest Heritage Center lot if you want the quietest entry. The marked trails get crowded after 10am on weekends in October.

Beavers Bend is the gravitational center of Broken Bow tourism. The park wraps Broken Bow Lake on its south end and threads the Mountain Fork river through its middle. Day-use entry is free; the David Boren Lakeview Lodge sits inside.

Planning your trip

Beavers Bend State Park is one stop on a Broken Bow weekend. Most guests drive in Friday afternoon, spend Saturday on the water or in Hochatown, and head home Sunday. Two nights is the minimum on most dates, three feels a lot better. Cell service is patchy once you leave the main road, so download your map before you arrive, and bring groceries — the nearest full store is in Broken Bow proper, about 15 minutes south of the cabin strip.

We host two cabins here ourselves and answer every message personally. If you are not sure which dates are open or which cabin fits your group, just ask — we would rather help you plan than watch you guess.

Drive from OKC: About 4 hours
Nearest town: Hochatown / Broken Bow, OK
