About Cherokee Landing State Park

This small state park sits on a peninsula in the Cookson Hills near Tahlequah, at the northern end of Lake Tenkiller. Its shape gives it strong lakeside camping. Visitors can hike the Red Fox trail, stroll around the grounds, watch spring wildflowers, look for birds, and see migrating cranes. The park has a volleyball court and a nine-hole disc golf course. Because the south end can flood during high water, RV camping is limited to the north end, where sites offer electric and water hookups and fit rigs up to 40 feet. A dump station, rentable shelters, and a group RV camp are also available.
