Mary K. Oxley Nature Center, Oklahoma, United States
4.5 (68 reviews) Spent Ranking #23 in Tulsa Nature & Wildlife Areas
Excellent little nature center!
We had a group of five trying to find a cool place to hang out together on a hot Tulsa day, and we found the nature center! We only visited in the building but I was really impressed with how much it had to offer in a limited space. We had three young children (ages 5 and 3) with us and they stayed entertained for well over an hour and a half looking at all the hands-on displays, pressing the buttons to hear the different bird sounds, and climbing in the really cool tree! We also fed the fish and turtles which was a nice treat for everyone. The staff was so friendly and kind and gave us some helpful tips. Although we didn't walk them, there are lots of trails you can hike that take you into nature - something I'd love to do on a future visit!

Happly place!
I have been going to hike at Oxley Nature Center for many years, and it always is a delight to find another little view or perspective that I hadn't seen before. With the main nature center trails, the Bird Creek Trail, the lake trail, and the north trail, there are lots of places to explore for either a short hike or a longer day hike. I bring my Girl Scout troop out to Oxley often, they enjoy it immensely and have a great time examining things in the Nature Center as well. Walk lightly on the land, listen intently, watch patiently and you will see some of the wild residents that call this preserve home.

Wonderful haven for nature!
Unexpected enjoyment at this small nature centre. It was teaming with wildlife and our family had a wonderful afternoon there. Snakes galore, including a group of garter snakes mating right next to the footpath. Would thoroughly recommend for nature lovers.
