Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge

Protecting important wetlands along the Deep Fork River, Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge in eastern Oklahoma is a newcomer to the National Wildlife Refuge System. Established in 1993, the 8,696-acre refuge is subject to flooding at least once a year. This flooding results in excellent conditions for waterfowl, including mallard, blue-winged teal, shoveler, pintail, and wood ducks.

The refuge is located in Okmulgee County, 35 miles south of Tulsa and 100 miles west of Oklahoma City.

To reach the Headquarters Office: Take Highway 75 to Okmulgee, then 6th Street west to Grand. On Grand, travel to 4th Street. The Headquarters Office is located in the Post Office at 111 West 4th Street, Room 318.
