About Arrowhead State Park

 

Arrowhead State Park, located on the western shore of Lake Eufaula in southeast Oklahoma, covers a significant area of forested land and shoreline that provides a tranquil escape for outdoor enthusiasts. The park spans mixed hardwood forests and open grassy areas that support abundant wildlife species such as white-tailed deer, wild turkey, and numerous songbirds. Established in 1960, the park offers a diverse range of outdoor activities, including fishing, boating, swimming, hiking, and mountain biking, making it a popular local and regional vacation spot. Lake Eufaula, one of Oklahoma's largest reservoirs, anchors the park, delivering over 600 miles of shoreline to explore and fish. Within the park, visitors will find well-maintained campgrounds, picnic areas, and several multi-use trails. The park’s natural beauty is enhanced by its large lake access points, providing opportunities for water sports and birdwatching, especially during migration seasons. Arrowhead State Park is also recognized for its quiet backcountry camping sites and scenic overlooks offering impressive views of Lake Eufaula's expansive waters. Wildlife photographers and anglers alike frequent the park for its diverse habitats and abundant fish populations. Accessibility to the park is straightforward via Highway 69, and its peaceful environment combined with convenient amenities draws families and recreationists throughout the year.
