Medicine Park, Oklahoma

Medicine Park is a town in Comanche County, Oklahoma, situated in the Wichita Mountains near the entrance to the 60,000 acre Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge. Medicine Park has a long history as a vintage cobblestone resort town. Medicine Park is also located near the city of Lawton, Oklahoma and Fort Sill. Many of the original structures are constructed out of the naturally formed cobblestones-these red granite cobblestones are unique to the Wichita Mountains.

Medicine Park, Oklahoma, on the edge of the Wichita Wildlife Refuge with Mt. Scott as a backdrop, began its life in 1908 the year following the return of the bison to Wildlife Refuge by Teddy Roosevelt. Medicine Park was the first planned resort town in Oklahoma with its centerpiece being Bath and Gondola Lakes with its swimming and fishing. The eccentric cobblestone cottages cheerfully like the streets, bringing smiles to the visitors and inhabitants of this little community. The red round cannonball-sized stone is a unique natural formation occurring in the Wichita Mountains. Medicine Park has been through good times and bad but never boring times. Always a resort, it catered to families, politicians and as well as the notorious. Medicine Park is in continual evolution but still keeps its historic charisma.

With its idyllic creek side setting at the foothills of the Wichita Mountains (the oldest mountains in North America) no wonder Medicine Park has been an enviable attraction for the last 100 years. But first and foremost its draw is the wealth of historic Cobblestone architecture, not to found anywhere else in the US, making it the quintessential destination for those who seek the unique. Called a “Treasure” by visitors both near and far, the Park continues to be an integral inclusion to any worthwhile trip to the Wichita Mountain National Refuge and Great Plains Country.

Medicine Park and the it environs is highlighted by over fifteen blue water lakes and offering fishing, boating, swimming and water skiing and an breath taking natural terrain perfect for rock climbing, hiking, bird watching and wildlife photography.
