Beavers Bend State Park, located in southeastern Oklahoma, was established in 1937. It's named after John T. Beavers, a Choctaw intermarried citizen.
The park spans over 1,300 acres and is known for its diverse terrain including forests of pine and hardwood trees along with the Mountain Fork River that flows through it.
In the early years post-establishment, several facilities were constructed by Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), such as cabins and trails which are still used today.
Hochatown Area within this state park became popular due to Broken Bow Lake built by U.S Army Corp Engineers in mid-1960s.
This area offers various recreational activities like fishing on trout streams or boating on Broken Bow lake attracting tourists year-round.
Today it remains one of Oklahoma's most visited parks providing camping sites & cabin rentals while preserving natural beauty for future generations.
