OKC Families: The Best Vacation in Oklahoma Is Already Yours.
People drive from three states to see the corner of Oklahoma you can reach in an afternoon. Broken Bow and Beavers Bend draw millions of visitors — most of them from Texas — to clear water, pine mountains, and some of the darkest night skies in the region. It's about 3.5 hours from Oklahoma City, and it belongs to you first. Mi Vida Loca at Pine Lake Resort is where in-state families stay like they own the place — because in a way, they do.
The Drive Is Part of It
The straightforward route runs southeast and takes roughly 3.5 hours. But in October, ask your GPS about the Talimena National Scenic Byway — the mountain drive along the Ouachita crest is one of the best fall foliage routes in the country, and it can fold right into the trip. (Our October Adventure Guide covers the science of fall color, so the drive literally becomes the lesson.)
