7 Hidden Gems in Hochatown You Don’t Want to Miss (Plus the Best Cabin to Stay In)

When you think of Hochatown, Oklahoma, you probably picture Broken Bow Lake or Beavers Bend State Park — and for good reason.
But if you venture just a little off the beaten path, you’ll discover that Hochatown is full of hidden gems: cozy spots, outdoor adventures, and local experiences that make this area unforgettable.

Whether you're here for a weekend escape or a week-long retreat, Eye Candy Cabin offers the perfect base to explore Hochatown’s best-kept secrets.

Here are 7 hidden gems to add to your must-visit list:


1. Cedar Creek Golf Course

Looking for a peaceful morning activity?
Cedar Creek Golf Course winds through towering pines with stunning views at every hole.
You don't even have to be a serious golfer to appreciate the beauty — this course feels like playing inside a nature preserve.

📍 Eye Candy Tip: Tee off early and come back for a relaxing soak in the private hot tub on the deck.


2. Hochatown Rescue Center & Petting Zoo

This family-friendly spot is more than just a petting zoo — it’s a rescue center with a mission.
You'll meet deer, goats, emus, pigs, and even some exotic animals, making it a perfect laid-back stop for kids (and kids at heart).

It’s small, friendly, and full of charm — a must-visit for families looking for a laid-back afternoon adventure.

📍 Eye Candy Cabin Tip: The teepee and fire pit at Eye Candy are perfect for extending the fun when you get back — imagine s'mores and storytelling after a day with the animals!


3. Riverman Trail Rides

Trade the hiking boots for a saddle and explore Hochatown’s backcountry by horseback.
Riverman Trail Rides offers peaceful, guided rides through private trails and along the river — it’s pure Hochatown magic.

📍 Eye Candy Tip: Capture some trail photos to share, then enjoy an outdoor meal on the cabin’s dining deck under the pines.


4. A Spa Day

Need a day of serious relaxation?
Body Harmony Spa offers custom massage experiences you won't find anywhere else, including their famous “Bodyworks Experience.”
It’s cozy, calm, and perfect for couples or solo travelers needing a true break. 

📍 Eye Candy Tip: Book a morning massage, then take an afternoon nap on the cabin's swing bed with mountain views. Or even better yet enjoy an in-cabin massage, contact A Servant's Hand to schedule your couple's massage!


5. The Maze of Hochatown

Hidden just behind the main strip is the Maze of Hochatown — a surprisingly tricky outdoor maze that's fun for families, friends, and even date day adventures.

It’s an unexpected and playful stop that challenges your sense of direction and guarantees some laughs.

📍 Eye Candy Tip: After you "escape" the maze, cool off back at Eye Candy Cabin with cold drinks on the deck.


6. Hochatown Distilling Company

Skip the big city breweries — Hochatown Distilling Company offers handcrafted spirits made right here in town.
Take a tasting tour, learn how they make their small-batch whiskey, and maybe even grab a bottle to enjoy later by the firepit at the cabin.

📍 Eye Candy Tip: Bring back a bottle of their signature bourbon to sip while watching the stars from the hot tub.


7. Beavers Bend Mining Company

This isn't your ordinary tourist trap — Beavers Bend Mining Company is an interactive spot where kids (and adults) can pan for gemstones, fossils, and arrowheads.

It’s part hands-on learning, part treasure hunt — and totally fun.

📍 Eye Candy Tip: After the mining adventure, display your treasures on the cabin’s outdoor table while telling tall tales around the fire.
