The Southeastern part of the state surprises many with its lush, green vistas. Winding Stair Mountain, in the Ouachita National Forest, is breathtaking. The Beaver's Bend SP/Broken Bow Lake, area - a little further to the south, is also quite beautiful.

When traveling across this great land of ours most people that drive stay on the Interstate Highways, and see very little. If they were to get off and drive some of the older US Highways they would get to see just how beautiful the central part of the country really is. This would include a lot more states and not just Oklahoma.

well thats true with any majorm interstate. all an interstate does is connect you from one large city to another-usually in the most direct way possible. interstates usually dont connect you to any natural sceneic points of interests-unless of course they are en route.

I appreciate your constructive comments starsville. Clearly you are unaware that the most popular weekend destination for Dallas-ites is the Beavers Bend area in OKLAHOMA.
And that is what I would give this distinction to. Runners up: Robber's Cave State Park, Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, and Natural Falls State Park.

About 20 years ago we lived in Broken Arrow. Our children were very small and one of our favorite things to do was to drive over to Tahlequah for the day. There was lovely park on a lake in that area with a few campsites and a couple of cabins. The area was lovely, and there were hardly ever people there, so we usually had it to ourselves for the day. There was a really nice, small Cherokee museum nearby. It was really a historic home that was also being used as a museum. That is definitely one of the most beautiful areas of Oklahoma that I have seen, but I have no idea if it's still there or if the area has changed. That was before reservation casinos, and things like that, so it could have changed drastically . . . I really hope it hasn't.

When I was a kid we used to spend summers at a resort called Wauhilla on the Arkansas River near Welling. Great memories.
