The owners hired life guards and installed picnic tables. The large parking area is dirt. Restrooms are on site. Swimming is no longer available and fishing is 'catch and release'.

The famous Tulsa Cave House was built by Joseph Koberling Sr. and James Purzer during the 1920's…read more Originally this cave like building was designed as a restaurant with outdoor dining. This restaurant served as a front to a speakeasy at night (with possible activity involving mobsters, shady business, etc). A long time ago there were tunnels (that are long gone, as they had collapsed, according to our tour guide and owner of the home) that served as an entrance and exit point. The Fire Department actually came to check and see around the home and had found some of those collapsed tunnels and that it would lead to the back of the home and over the hill. Since then, this home was owned by a few other owners and then was left abandoned for many years until Linda Collier purchased this home in 1997 and eventually repaired and restored the home. She opened this home to the public in 2007 for tours (only $10 per person). According to Linda, the home was in such a disrepair that the realtor she was with refused to enter. But as soon as Linda stepped in, she knew she just had to purchase it. She was going to move in but said that a ghost/ apparition convinced her not to move in. So she used it as a place for her woodwork and a place to write (she still does not live in the home). During that time, locals would ring the doorbell and ask if they could take a peek inside, as they had always known about the cave house but had always wondered what laid inside. Eventually Linda decided to provide tours for locals and tourists. My husband and I came for a visit on a Thursday afternoon (we had contacted Linda earlier that day and said she would be able to give a tour at 2 pm. She was so sweet to let us come in earlier, as we had arrived a bit earlier). We sat in the living room and heard a few stories of the home and looked at the old photos that she had to share of previous owners of the home and of what this home looked like before. She also told us that her home was featured on HGTV's "Home Strange Home" show and also is in the book "Weird Oklahoma." Then she showed us around her home and explained what she had done to the walls or what she had added, etc. Upstairs, there is a fun slide that my husband went down twice (lol, he's such a kid at heart). Linda had said that she added that slide for her daughter (such a cool mom she is. I wish I had a slide in my bedroom when I was kid). It was very interesting to learn about the history that Tulsa had. Also earlier in the week, some locals at a dog event we had gone to with our little girl dog, had told us about the Tulsa Cave House (although I already had this place bookmarked before visiting Oklahoma) and that they had gone on a tour and that it was worth a visit. Our tour was about 50 minutes and thought it was at a good pace and a fun activity to do. If you are looking for something out of box and happen to be visiting Tulsa, you should consider checking out the Tulsa Cave House. It is recommended to make an appointment beforehand. Although you may get lucky to do a walk in, if Linda is home.

Most days there are four reasons to visit the Meadow Gold District, but from Thursday through…read moreSaturdays there's a fifth. Reason 1: Buck Atom's Cosmic Curios on 66. This place was my introduction to the Meadow Gold District. It's a small gift store set inside a former old time Route 66 gas station and it's loaded with great Route 66 and Tulsa souvenirs. Highly recommended. Reason 2: Decopolis. If you love the Art Deco era, this store is a must visit. In addition to a fantastic ever changing inventory of great contemporary merchandise for sale, there is a wonderful permanent display of collectible household items from the Art Deco years. I particularly love the collection of colorful celluloid radios. Reason 3: Meadow Gold Mack. This place is another must visit for me whenever I'm in Tulsa. There are a whole bunch of local artists that display their work in little booths here. Really wonderful works celebrating both Oklahoma in general and Tulsa specifically. My favorite booth here is 3 Bulls Upcycling. You've got to see their robots and rayguns! Reason 4: Buck's Vintage on 66. If you love high quality vintage Western Wear, I recommend a visit. Way more than just a great clothing selection, they also have an attractive assortment of vintage Western collectibles. This last reason only applies from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, because those are the business hours of Reason 5: Baloney Maroney. This little food trailer is located in the parking lot of Buck Atom's and by itself is reason enough to visit the Meadow Gold District. I mean, even if you have no interest in any of the other places mentioned above, you need to check this place out. The Smoked Baloney sandwich I had here was the best sandwich I had in the first quarter of 2026 and is officially in the running for my personal Sandwich of The Year. Now, just because you were cool enough to read this far, I'm going to offer up one more reason to visit the Meadow Gold District! Bonus Reason: All of the above places are within two or three blocks of each other. You can park for free right next to the big Meadow Gold Diary sign and easily walk to all of these great little places. Mikey C says: damn, forgot to mention the giant advertising icons.

There are actually two bridges here - the highway bridge that has two lanes of traffic in each direction and the parallel Harmony bridge that is a pedestrian and bicycle route also known as the Riverwalk Trail. I'm not sure if it's Tulsa, Bixby or the State that did the work here, but the bridge is almost a park all by itself, with shaded dining areas, plastic lounge seats looking out of the river and even a love lock structure where you can add your padlock with your significant other's initials to leave your mark. The remodeling was completed this past summer and it looks terrific. There is a small parking lot at the south end or the much larger parking lot in the Washington Irving Park.
