There are many reasons why we call Tenkiller State Park, "Heaven in the Hills".
Located on the shore of scenic Lake Tenkiller, this park is an outdoor
recreation wonderland. The magnificent limestone cliffs, crystal clear water and
abundant water sports, including an underwater scuba park, make this one of
Oklahoma's favorites. Tenkiller State Park
