Lake Texoma Information

Lake Texoma, located right in between Texas and Oklahoma, is a conglomeration of several communities surrounding a beautiful lake located only an hour from the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Right on the Red River, this idyllic escape offers both locals and visitors from farther away a chance to relax and get away from big-city life. Particularly popular with amateur and professional fishermen, Lake Texoma is a great place to sit down to a plate of fresh seafood and have some good times with your travel companions.

The area of Lake Texoma as a whole is actually made up of several smaller communities—in Texas, these towns include Denison, Sherman and Gainesville. In Oklahoma, the largest nearby city is Durant, but other smaller cities include Cartwright, Colbert, and Calera. All of these small towns offer that coveted southern hospitality, and any of these options would be a great choice for a home base to explore the expansive region. One of Lake Texoma’s major draws is its opportunities for fishing. The area is home to a variety of fish species, including catfish and bass. Nature lovers will be in heaven in Lake Texoma—the two state parks located in the area provide hours upon hours of hiking and exploring fun. There are also a variety of highly-rated golf courses—some of the most popular include Rock Creek and Tanglewood. Particularly in the warm summer months, don’t forget about water sports—wind surfing, sailing, and the like are popular choices with many of the six million visitors that visit Lake Texoma every year. If you’re visiting in the spring, make sure to check out the Lakefest Regatta, the first inland charity sailing event in the US (proceeds benefit Make-A-Wish!).
