Review & FAQ:

Lake Murray is located in southcentral Oklahoma within Lake Murray State Park, Oklahoma's largest and oldest state park. Damming the Anadarche and Fourche Maline creeks in 1941 resulted in the creation of this 5,728-acre reservoir near the city of Ardmore. The unique Tucker Tower serves as the park’s nature center and museum and has interesting displays of wildlife living in the area. Mainly spring-fed, the lake waters are clear and excellent for a number of water sports, especially fishing and scuba diving. The lake is well stocked with big bass, crappie, drum, walleye, catfish, and sunfish. The park offers boat rentals, horse stables, campgrounds, and rental cabins. There is also an 18-hole golf course, softball fields, and facilities for many other sports and activities.
