Oklahoma Off the Beaten Path(r)

Tired of the same old tourist traps? Whether you’re a visitor or a local looking for something different, Oklahoma Off the Beaten Path shows you the Sooner State you never knew existed. Catch a reenactment of a historic Wild West show at Pawnee Bill Buffalo Ranch, stroll through the collection of bonsai trees and Japanese-style cascading pools at Lendonwood Gardens, or admire the rose-colored fossilized crystals at the Timberlake Rose Rock Museum. So, if you’ve ＂been there, done that＂ one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
