OUR FAMILY’S BROKEN BOW FAVORITES
All four cabins are located in the highly sought after Timber Creek Trails area of Hochatown in Broken Bow Oklahoma. All three lots have gorgeous mature trees and year round creeks!
You will be close to the town's best breweries, restaurants, ice cream shops, coffee shops and wineries. There is so much to see and do in Broken Bow. Planning where to go and what to eat can be the most stressful part of a vacation, so I hope our family's personal recommendation list will help you narrow your options down and alleviate some of the pre-vacation stress!

EAT
Grateful Head Pizza Oven & Tap Room
Our personal favorite! It is a must. Be prepared for a long wait though. I especially like the Tree Hugger pizza, and my husband loves the Dire Wolf. The breadsticks are great too!

Abendigos Grill & Patio
Great place for steak, grilled fresh veggies etc. It’s best place for anniversaries etc. (it’s still a lake town so you don’t need to dress-up; some people will be in lake clothes and some in date attire). They take reservations!

Jakes Brickhouse Grill
This one is in Idabel but is worth the drive if you feel like venturing out! We really liked their queso and chips, bbq nachos, steak, mahi mahi, catfish, and burgers. You really can’t go wrong.

Shuck Me
Fast casual fried seafood place. We like their Beignets; they have a great outdoor patio with a pretty view of a pond. Their soups are decent too. All of their fried food is average, not anything to rave about, but it hits the spot if that is what you are craving. They also happen to be open in the down season more than other restaurants.

WINERIES & BREWERIES
Fish Tales Winery, Vineyard,
and Bistro
My favorite! They have great house made muscadine wine, knowledgeable staff, and a great selection, AMAZING Bistro. We love their baguette and chip dips, and their paninis! For sure get the peach, pear, ham, pepper jack, and banana pepper one. It sounds weird but is SO good! Get the cucumber salad side dish that goes along with it!

Kind of a silly name but has a good heart. They donate some revenue to charity. This is more of a funny/bachelorette atmosphere vs classy winery.

Tree Frog Kayak & Canoe Rentals
Tree Frog is awesome and friendly. You park your car at their location and the friendly owners shuttle you to the water (maybe 10 mins tops drive). Bring ziplock bags and bungee cords to fasten your items to your kayak. I recommend stopping at the big, lone rock in the middle of the river to rest/ eat food/ swim. They have a pick up location by the bridge/underpass and they shuttle you back. They also have a bathroom where you can change. We kayaked 8am-noon. The earlier the better on the river!

Beavers Bend State Park Swimming “Beach” Area
It’s a sandyish beach area with calm water, $15 peddle boat or kayak river rentals, and snow cone stand. It’s my children’s favorite. The portion of the river that you kayak is very calm with gorgeous trees growing in the middle of the water, and beautiful cliffs. This is perfect for families with young children who are nervous to take them on an actual big, guided kayaking trip, or for couples/families who want to go at their own pace without a guide.){With kayak, peddle boat, and paddle board rentals (non-guided)}

Hiking in Beavers Bend State Park
Alltrails.com or download the All Trails App
{Maps with trail directions, reviews, and descriptions}
One of our favorite family friendly trails is called Friends Trail it is an easy/moderate loop that runs past a gorgeous part of the river. There is a fork at the beginning of the trail. Head right if you want a more moderate elevation change and to do the full loop. Head left if you want it to stay fairly flat, this way still leads to the river. You can hike out the same way if you don’t want to complete the loop.
Tree Trail is a fantastic easy 1.2 mile trail that perfect for kids. We love it! It leads you past a Native American sculpture, along a beautiful creek that my kids love to splash in, over a bridge, and back to the Forest Heritage Center. Skyline Trail is a hard trail that is a 9.5 mile hike that leads to the lake, it has water crossings and steep sections. Lookout Mountain Loop is a 2.9 mile moderate trail with pretty views.

Our kid’s favorite! It’s a charming short train ride through beautiful pines. They throw feed to the deer, so they come close to the track for you to view. The conductor is a lot of fun too.

Riverman Trail Rides
A personal favorite, the horses were gentle, and the trail was fun! We went through water, up hills, and to a beautiful look out spot. I’d recommend this one if you aren’t nervous or intimidated by horses. It is a family run business. They are great!
1735 Pine View Road

Beavers Bend Depot and Trail Rides
Their horse trail rides are fun; it is more of a ride through flat pines vs Riverman’s terrain. I’d suggest this one if you are brand new to horse riding and are scared/nervous. Both are fun but I would choose based on preference of ride terrain and experience around horses.
