Guide to Green Country 2015

Tourism Guide

Forests, mountains, rolling hills and miles of shoreline
make Green Country a natural haven for 18 of

Oklahoma’s 34 Great State Parks. Book a cozy cabin
among the towering oak trees at Keystone or stay in a
historic native stone cabin built by the Works Progress
Administration at Greenleaf. Cast a line at the famed

Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees and reel in catfish and
largemouth bass. For miles of trails, aquatic adventure
and watchable wildlife, choose picturesque Lake Eufaula.

And for a hidden sanctuary that will take your breath
away, hike to the 77-foot waterfall at Natural Falls.
