About this property

Scenic Ridge Cabin - Wichita Mountains, Oklahoma - Incredible Mountain Views

The Scenic Ridge Cabin is truly a special place! It's a private retreat located on three acres just north of Lawton and Medicine Park, Oklahoma, and is situated in the foothills of the Wichita Mountains. The location features a wrap around patio offering unparalleled panoramic views of Mount Sheridan, Tarbone Mountain, and Mount Scott to the south and the Slick Hills and Blue Canyon Wind Farm to the north.

Our cozy and romantic octagon-shaped cabin is located near the Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge, where you will find over 59,000 acres of hiking, climbing, fishing, boating, and wildlife viewing. The famous Meers Restaurant is only two miles to the east and the quaint cobblestone community of Medicine Park is just 15 minutes away.

Scenic is right!

We wanted a place that was quiet and beautiful and this was it! Remote but not too far from civilization…and the views right outside the front door were gorgeous, not to mention the areas all around the property.

2nd time here!!

This is our second time to stay here, we stayed in July and January, so we got to experience both the hottest and coldest months of the year. We loved both stays! The only thing that we regret is not understanding that the beautiful wood burning stove was for show only. Other than that, our stay was PERFECT! David and Dara are excellent hosts and we cannot wait for our third stay.

Christmas in the Wichitas

My partner and I had a wonderful time. The property was beautiful and very cozy. We appreciated the recommendations and info sent to us by our hosts, and had a wonderful Christmas dinner. We both agreed we would love to be back in the spring to see the area again when it isn’t winter, though the misty mountain tops we saw during our stay had a certain charm as well and made for some beautiful scenery.

EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS

We booked this cabin to attend a graduation from basic training at Fort Sill. All the beautiful decorative touches and upgraded appliances made the cabin feel more vacation-like. We made great use of the deck furniture and hammock chair.

Semi-secluded cabin, close to Medicine Park

Very comfortable and peaceful cabin near Medicine Park. It was a perfect weekend getaway from OKC. Coffee on the covered deck overlooking the mountains was one of my favorite parts of our stay.

Love this place

This was the second time my wife and I stayed here and we will definitely be back again. The house is is great shape with and incredible porch view. They keep it stocked with toiletries that are above a beyond what is necessary for a rental. Plus, we were able to see bison, deer, longhorns, and all other types of wildlife within a 10-minute drive. Love the entire area, but wouldn't even waste my time looking for another place to stay if that's your destination. Not a bad thing to say about this special hidden gem in the Wichita Mountains.

Wichita Mountains Cabin

Great cabin near the Wichita Mountains. It provided a comfortable base for a long weekend of hiking in the nearby wildlife refuge. I loved watching the local road runners strutting by right off the porch and taking in the great view of the mountains with my morning coffee.

It was the right location for us! It was peaceful and the views were great. The cabin was very clean and kept us cool on a hot summer day! I enjoyed my mornings on the deck listening to the birds sing while watching the deer graze.

About the host

Hosted by David and Dara Wanzer

Host profile image
We have loved coming to the Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge and Medicine Park since we moved back to Oklahoma City in 2000. Scenic Ridge Cabin provides us a welcome reset from our day-to-day lives in OKC. We appreciate every opportunity we can to enjoy our cabin and escape our busy lives, but when we can't make it - we love sharing it with others!

Why they chose this property

We had frequently daydreamed about having a little getaway near the Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge and Medicine Park and were thrilled to stumble onto the Scenic Ridge Cabin "for sale" over Memorial Day weekend of 2015. We stayed for a "test" weekend and immediately fell in love with the cabin, with its special location on three acres overlooking Mount Scott, Mount Sheridan, Tarbone Mountain, the Slick Hills and the windmill farm. Our unique octagon shaped cabin has been lovingly and thoughtfully renovated and furnished. The views are incredible, and nothing beats relaxing on the wrap around patio.

What makes this property unique

Some of our favorite things about our cabin include: coffee or a glass of wine on the wrap around patio; the artisan touches and finishes; the privacy and solitude; nightly bunny sightings (most often at dusk;) collared lizards hanging out on the rocks; occasional owl sightings; proximity to Meers, Medicine Park, and the Wichita Wildlife Refuge; cooking dinner for a relaxing evening on the couch, watching a movies or a football game; wild turkeys scattered about our neighborhood; our kind neighbors and their sweet and loving dogs.
