    Easy parking and clean bathroom right next to swim beach. Arrive early for less crowds. After 3 it…read moregot crowded but it was not bad for a Saturday. There was also volleyball court, lots of grass and picnic tables under the shade too! We will def come back year after year!

    This was my first visit to Oologah Lake. I came quite early in the morning about 8:30am on a…read moreSunday. I came specifically to hike the Skull Hollow Nature Trail. No one was in the gate attendant shack when I pulled up but there were easy to follow instructions to self pay. It was only $5 for a day pass which I thought was a great deal! The hike along the nature trail was beautiful. There are many areas where you're able to look out over the lake if you follow the "hiking" trail. I took my doggo with me. I personally didn't think it was a very strenuous hike, but I'm also fairly active. Be careful and watch your footing. I also came across what I would call a "hidden beach". Unless you hike to it or know where to locate it via boat, it's quite private. I thought it was absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to come back once everything greens up and bring a lunch with me to enjoy it for longer. The trail seemed well maintained and there wasn't any trash anywhere which is what I always like to see. I hope to get back to this lake before the end of summer. I'm trying to visit a different Tulsa District Corps lake each weekend this summer! Would highly recommend!!

Our captain Marcus had a great sense of humor and had historical knowledge about Bricktown that we never would have known. I definitely recommend finding a seat under the tarp, it was comfortable there. The sun was beating down pretty hard and I think I would have gotten a sunburn if I hadn't of been under the shaded seats. The whole process from getting the tickets to getting off the boat was very smooth and easy. We paid $15 for a 45 min. Boat ride. Worth every penny! You can also bring your drinks aboard, which is nice.

    If you are visiting the area from out of town, the Bricktown water taxi is a must! I did not except…read morethe tour to be as long and informative as it was so it exceeded expectations! Our tour guide, Anitta, was great! She was very fun and shared great tid bits of history and info. We went at 4:30 on a Saturday and our ride was perfect - not too packed as compared to other times. I definitely would recommend purchasing a ticket, at minimum, a couple hours or even days prior to going. I could see this being much more popular in warmer months. It was already very popular at the beginning of April on a colder day. Overall, if you are checking out the Bricktown area and want a fun activity to do, check out the water taxi! it's only 30 minutes and you get to see the whole area and then some!

    Cross Timbers is a beautiful marina. We just recently purchased a boat that was docked at the one…read moreother marina on Skiatook and there is absolutely NO comparison between these marinas. The docks at Cross Timbers are very clean and in great shape. There are electrical and water hook ups at, or just adjacent to, each slip - something the other marina does not offer. All of the staff I have come in contact with (front desk, sales, Lakeside Grill, and maintenance) have all been very professional, courteous, and helpful. Parking could become a problem if we didn't drive a big truck, which it makes it easy for us to get down to the gravel lot, but I have been told by the manager that they are paving the gravel lot in a few months. Another huge bonus is that it is about 10 minutes closer to Tulsa! For the very little difference in cost from the other Skiatook marina there isn't a question on where to dock your boat! I have read the other review for this marina on Yelp and it seems the individual who left the review may have been confused.

    Our friends keep their boat at this Marina . Yesterday we went there to enjoy a day on the lake…read more The little ramps that you walk on on the way to your boat are in such bad shape, the coating is completely gone ,so they are dangerously slippery. My friend slipped and fell, hurt her arm and burned her legs on that bear metal . Those things needed to be replaced long time ago. They did not want to complain about it, because they had problems with management before and nothing was done to fix it. But I say it's not a safe place to go or keep your boat at.
