Skiatook Lake is located on Highway 20, 4 miles west of the town of Skiatook, and 11 miles east of Hominy, Oklahoma, about a one hour drive from Tulsa. Gentle rolling hills of Blackjack and Post Oak interspersed with Tall Grass Prairie surround beautiful Skiatook Lake. Elevated 714.0 feet above sea level, the lake has a surface area of about 10,500 acres and 160 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is accentuated by steep picturesque bluffs which offer fantastic views. Boating, hiking, swimming, camping, picnicking, as well as hunting and fishing are all popular activities at the lake. Sport fishing is very popular and Skiatook offers an abundance of different species to satisfy and challenge sport fishing anglers. Hybrid Stripers (Wipers) are annually stocked into Skiatook and Skiatook Lake offers quality fishing as well for Largemouth bass, Smallmouth bass, Black and White crappie, Channel catfish, Blue catfish, Walleye, and several species of sunfish. Whitetail deer, rabbit, squirrel, quail, and many more bird species are plentiful around the lake. Even a few coyote have been seen. During the seasons, about 8,000 acres of this land are open for hunting. About 1,800 acres of land around the lake have been set aside for public use areas. These areas provide roads, parking spaces, boat ramps, nature trails, picnicking, and camping sites along with sanitary facilities. These areas remain attractive to the user and blend in with the natural landscape surrounding the lake.
