Located in northern Oklahoma, Osage Hills State Park offers 1,100 acres (4.5 km2) of outdoor recreation opportunities including camping, hiking, fishing and wildlife watching. Park facilities include picnic tables and shelters, 20 semi-modern RV campsites, 16 tent sites and 8 cabins[1]. Several of the park's structures are historic parkitecture built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s and 1940s.
Abundant fishing for bass, crappie, catfish and perch can be found in Lookout Lake, or in Sand Creek at the south end of the park. Miles of hiking trails criss-cross the park offering opportunities for beginning hikers or more challenging paths. Wildlife is abundant in the park and includes whitetail deer, wild turkey, bobcat, raccoon and more.
