New Year. New Book. New Stone Turtle Lodging.

Welcome, welcome, welcome!


We are so excited to be here another year! Who we are, you ask. Well, we are The Stone Turtle- Lodging! We are a small family-run lodging business just outside of Lawton, Oklahoma. Our cabins are also located close to the treasures of Oklahoma. Okay, that's a biased opinion, but the Wichita Mountains are just too amazing, and we count our blessings every day that we are located so close to such an Oklahoma wonder. Medicine Park (a quaint little cobblestone community), Meers (home of the world famous Meers' burger), and Fort Sill (home of field artillery) are all just short drives away.

We love to do things differently. You won't find cable or internet in our cabins. However, you'll find books, movies, coffee and tea, and star-gazing opportunities to your heart's delight. We also have a 2-mile nature trail where the wild things grow (gorgeous wildflowers) and the rabbits zip around. Not to mention the million-dollar views of Oklahoma's spectacular sunsets over the Wichita Mountains. So we're a tad bit in love with our small piece of Oklahoma paradise...

Whether you're in town for a hiking or bicycling adventure or coming for a military graduation at Fort Sill, stay with us because we'd love to make your time in our area special! Check out our website and our Facebook page for more information about us.

So what is this blog all about? It's a place where we hope to showcase the awesomeness of our area of Oklahoma. We hope to share our adventures on Stone Turtle and in the area with you. Most people don't think the terms vacation and Oklahoma go hand-in-hand, but we're willing to bet (if we were bettin' women, that is) that Oklahoma will surprise you.

From belly dance to yoga, from gardening to exploring, we love to do a little bit of it all, so stay tuned!

Greetings from Oklahoma,
