Come. Enjoy. Our 5 acre homestead is located in NE Oklahoma's Green Country. Here, my husband and I enjoy our fairly quiet country life. Much of my time is spent in my small market garden or in our front yard under the one and only big beautiful oak tree. Less than half an hour north you'll find Salina's access to Lake Hudson. While heading half an hour south brings you to Tahlequah, where you'll find the Headquarters of the Cherokee Nation, NSU and you can spend the day floating the Illinois River.Ten minutes away In Peggs, you'll find Table 5 Restaurant which serves my husbands favorite chicken fried steak. Cowboys Convenient Store sells gas, burgers and so much more. Peggs also has a Dollar General for those forgotten items.We have 3 dogs and a 3-legged cat. We raise chickens and gather eggs while sustainably growing veggies in 2 one-hundred foot poly tunnels. As part of the market garden... plants, fresh produce, jams, salsa, and fresh or dried herbs are available for purchase when in season. I have fallen in love with an old building material called cob. Cob is clay, sand, and straw mixed together on a tarp with your feet. I've completed a few smaller builds and taught a few cob building classes. Now the work begins on a small cob building, called a palletable cobin, (fall of 2022) When cob-building is underway you're welcome to get your feet dirty and join in the fun. We have a mobile cob oven that can be moved to your campsite for cooking pizza, bread and more. Please bring your own firewood.Medical cannabis is allowed for valid card holders. Please be respectful of others and your surroundings.

The best camping near Arkansas River - Chouteau Lock and Dam guide

Overview

About

Chouteau Lock and Dam was built primarily for the improvement of the Arkansas River, but has fun recreation areas, too! Launch your boat and explore the 18.7 miles of navigable waters in the park. Anglers refer to the lock as the “Ditch,” an excellent spot to reel in a large mouth or striped bass. You’ll also find crappie, channel catfish, flatheads, and sunfish. If you want to camp, there are a few spots to choose from along the water. Head up to the small visitor center at Lock 17 for great views, and watch the commercial tug boat captains hard at work! You can also mosey on over to the nearby towns, and check out antique stores while taking in the unique culture: a blend of military families, Cherokee and Creek nations, and Amish communities.
