A tranquil haven for outdoor enthusiasts, you'll be hooked after one stay in the Going Fishing Cabin. Fun Fact: fishing is year around in the Wichita Mountains. 13 public use lakes = 500 plus acres of refuge waters with species of large mouth bass, sunfish, crappie, and channel catfish. There are ample fishing opportunities.
Nestled at the foothills of the Wichita Mountains, The Lazy Buffalo has 13 themed cabins. The Going Fishing Cabin is part of our newest addition, opened March 2023.
The space
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 amenities such as Wi-fi, Netflix, and the convenience of self check in.
Where else can you sleep in a real boat? The Going Fishing Cabin has a king size bed and your child will love catching zzz in an actual Jon boat!! The Cabin accommodates up to 2 adults and 1 child. It features a bathroom with a large walk in tiled shower accented with glass blocks.
Knotty pine and corrugated tin are used throughout. Stained concrete floors that look like real water and the tin ceilings really add a rustic touch.
The kitchenette area has a mini fridge and microwave along with table and chairs. Sip on a cup of coffee from the front porch or have a picnic in our outdoor pavilion area complete with charcoal Grill.
Both kids and adults will love tossing horseshoes and playing old fashion board games. On property, we also have fun recreation like disc golf, giant Connect 4, volleyball, and an interactive music wall in nature. Don't forget to snap photos at our themed photo ops.
During your stay, enjoy complimentary Netflix and WiFi or unplug and take in the beauty of the nearby Wichita Mountains from the covered front porch. Southwest Oklahoma sunsets are truly beautiful.
When it gets dark, roast marshmallows at the outdoor fire pit or relax under the stars in the back of our vintage star gazing pickup, located just a short walk from the cabin.
The Jon Boat has a twin mattress placed inside the boat and is ideal size for a child. We do not recommend it for adult sleeping. The Cabin also has a king sized bed.
We are located just three miles from the entrance to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge entrance. The Wildlife Refuge 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. At less than a mile from the original Quanah Parker’s Star House and minutes from Lawton Fort Sill and historic Medicine Park, there's plenty to see and do nearby.
