Beaver’s Bend State Park

Part 2 of our Oklahoma trip consisted of spending a couple days in Beaver’s Bend State Park. It is a quaint spot with plenty of hiking trails and outdoorsy things to do. We stayed at the Lakeview Lodge, and all the rooms overlook Broken Bow Lake, which was really nice. There were hiking trails two feet away, a small playground for the kiddos (or for the kids at heart), and picnic tables for those who like to eat outside.

During our journey, we saw plenty of locals coming down for a few days of R & R, and also from Kansas, which is just north of Oklahoma. Our favorite part of the trip was finding some delicious food along the way. We had the best pizza (try the chicken/spinach/roasted garlic/white sauce (homemade ranch!) Pepperoni is good too. I could eat this every day!) at Grateful Head and enjoyed a delicious meal at Moon Tower, which is owned by Executive Chef Tabb Singleton (winner of Chopped).
