Mount Scott
Wildlife refuge
👍👍 Well worth the drive.
Gorgeous 360° view of the surrounding area. The wind blows pretty good at the top, so be ready. The drive up and down the mountain is beautiful too. We loved climbing and sitting on the rocks. We spent several hours going all the way around the mountain climbing and sittin...

The Holy City of the Wichitas
Non-profit organization
👍👍 Great place to see. This place was built to tell the story of Jesus and his crucifixion. Excellent thing. They have plays around Easter you should go see, the city is lit up and you sit on the side of a mountain to watch. So interesting and if you love Jesus, it's an even more special place to visit...

Bath Lake Medicine Park
Swimming lake
👍👍 We had the BEST time here! Absolutely gorgeous and not crowded on a Saturday in July. Kids enjoyed jumping off the ledge, feeding ducks, exploring, eating snowcones… I’d suggest water shoes and floaties to make your trip more enjoyable

Ann's Country Kitchen
American restaurant
👍👍 This is a small restaurant located along OK-58. Our visit was due to being taken there by our Aunt and Uncle for dinner.
We were very happy with most of the meals that were served with the exception of the brown gravy being very salty. Our party placed orders for the following: Buffalo Burger with...

Riverside Cafe

👍👍 Unfortunately they were slammed when we got there due to another restaurant being closed unexpectedly. We had to wait quite a bit but they got current customers taken care of and then seated us. Service and food was excellent and they handled situation great!

Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation
Park
👍 Nice clean family oriented beach area with certified lifeguards on duty. Complimentary life vests, shower and bathrooms. I don’t think military/retirees should pay $8 to enter, should be like $3-$5 IMO, civilians are $10 per car load.
There is paddle boats & kayaks for rent as well on the other si...

Lake Jed Johnson Tower
Tourist attraction
😠 The tower itself seems pretty cool but you can't actually go up in it. Apparently The preserve decided to weld large metal beams into the doorway and make it so that you could not actually enjoy the tower.
It is very disappointing that the national preserve would not do a better job maintaining th...

👍👍 This free beach has great views, a clean grassy area to set up your spot and a small playground for kiddos to enjoy! This spot offers limited grill/awning areas with seating, porta pottys and a short walk from the parking lot.
My only advice might be to get some water shoes because going down toward...

Mrs. Chadwick's Bakery
Pastry shop
👍👍 It's like walking into your grandma's kitchen. It even looks like grandma's kitchen. It smells, and looks good. The lady is super friendly, and knowledgeable. All of the items looks amazing. It's a smaller place, but a good spot to stop, but worth it. You can sit outside and enjoy the nature and th...
