Historic Pensacola Dam

Cabins Near the Historic Pensacola Dam

Stay about five blocks from the dam in Langley, OK. Walk to the GRDA courtesy dock, see the neighborhood the dam built, and reach the trails below it by River Road.

Five blocks from the dam

The Historic Pensacola Dam holds back Grand Lake o’ the Cherokees, and our cabins are about five blocks from it. Walk over in the morning, or take the golf cart.

Right at the dam is the GRDA Ecosystems and Education Center and its courtesy dock. That dock is your gateway to the lake from this side, so you can be on the water without a long drive to a marina.

A neighborhood the dam built

The streets around our stays grew up about 80 years ago, when the dam was being built, and the history is still close by. Next to St. Frances of Rome Catholic Church stands a preserved hut that once housed the dam workers.

Below the dam on the Langley side, near the state parks, River Road takes you to the Eagle Pass rock-crawling trails. Street-legal ATVs and golf carts can use the city streets, and there is room at every stay to park the trailer.

Pet friendly cabins near the dam

If the dog is coming, book Lakeland House or the Oklahoma Trails Casita. Both take pets. The bunkhouses sit close together, so pets are not allowed there.
