The Craterville Park Cabin is named in honor of the legacy founded by Frank S. Rush over a hundred years ago when he opened Craterville Park two miles north of our location at The Lazy Buffalo. Craterville Park produced generations of memories and offered recreation and entertainment like nowhere else in Oklahoma at the time.
Nestled at the foothills of the Wichita Mountains, Many say that The Lazy Buffalo resembles an Old West Town. Our Cabins are similar to a classic motel layout. There are charming touches throughout the property along with modern offerings such as Wi-fi, Netflix, and the convenience of self check in.
The Lazy Buffalo has 13 uniquely themed Cabins. The Craterville Park Cabin accommodates 2 guests with a comfy king bed, a plush loveseat, and a full bathroom with a large walk in tiled shower accented with glass blocks.
Knotty pine and corrugated tin are used throughout the spacious cabin. Dark stained concrete floors and tin ceilings really add a rustic yet elegant touch. The kitchenette area has a mini fridge, microwave, k cup coffee maker, along with table and chars.
*** This Cabin is handicap accessible. ***
During your stay, enjoy complimentary Netflix and Wi-Fi or unplug and take in the beauty of our area. Watch as the sunsets over the plains from the long covered front porch while lounging in the wooden rockers. Southwest Oklahoma sunsets are truly worth witnessing.
Sip on a cup of coffee to get your morning started right and end your adventurous day gathered at the covered picnic area while enjoying smells from the charcoal grill. Yummy marshmallow goodness at the fire pit is a memorable way to cap off the evening or choose to relax under the stars in the back of our vintage star gazing truck, located just a short walk from the cabin.
Both kids and adults will love tossing horseshoes and playing old fashion games. Toss Frisbees at the disc golf stations, drop giant checkers to make a Connect 4, create music at our interactive music wall, or team up for some volleyball action. We are always adding new outdoor activities. Don't forget to snap some memories at The Lazy Buffalo photo ops.
We are honored to be able to share a bit of the Craterville Park history with our guests. Frank Rush III kindly loaned original photographs, brochures, posters, and other memorabilia for this Cabin. Frank is the grandson of E. Frank Rush who founded Craterville Park in 1923 with a goal to preserve the cowboy and Indian heritage of the area. Over the years, this dude ranch became known as "The Playground of Southwest Oklahoma."
LOCATION:
The Wildlife Refuge is just over 2 miles away, and preserves 59,000 acres of mixed prairie grass, ancient mountains, lakes, and streams. Herds of bison, longhorn, and elk can be seen roaming free and there's endless recreations opportunities such as fishing, bird watching, mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing, and kayaking.
A paved bike lane joins the property and runs throughout the Wildlife Refuge. The Lazy Buffalo is less than a mile from the original Quanah Parker’s Star House and minutes from Lawton Fort Sill and historic Medicine Park so there's plenty to see and do nearby.
