Peckerwood Knob Cabins affords endless opportunities for ATVs, mountain biking and hiking. You can explore public lands free for miles and miles … And miles. The ATV trailhead is located just one mile from Peckerwood Knob Cabins. No permits required. No boring flatlands. You’re in the mountains with something new around every bend. Rough terrain. Great views. Our guests love it. Please check out Oklahoma ATV laws before riding. We have a trailer drop on site for those coming with ATVs on trailers. Please do not bring trailers to the Sunset Cabin or the house, as it is difficult to turn a trailer in the small spaces available there.

It would be a shame to miss the opportunity to experience the Mountain Fork River while you’re here. It is a beautiful river, sure to please. You can float the lower Mountain Fork, below the lake and dam. This section runs pretty much year-round, and has some beautiful sections. Trout fishing is available here. It’s a beautiful one hour drive to several concessionaires.

You can float the upper Mountain Fork above Broken Bow Lake. There are several great runs. However, there are no longer concessionaires on this part of the river, so plan to bring your own boats and shuttle.

A fun, relaxing, back to nature experience.
