Neighborhoods
This Airbnb is located in the Old Silk Stocking neighborhood "At the turn of the 20th Century, Old Silk Stocking neighborhood was Norman's premier residential district.

Worth the trip. "The refuge is a popular destination for recreational activities. Rock climbing is overwhelmingly popular, but visitors also enjoy hiking, camping, fishing, bird and wildlife watching, and photography. The refuge has an extensive trail system, including about 15 miles of official trails and unofficial trails. Many of these trails lead to climbing routes. The area became popular for rock climbing beginning in the 1960s and 1970s, and has become something of a regional Mecca."

Daytrips
“The prettiest cities in the U.S. are scattered across the nation, but when it comes to Oklahoma, look no further than Medicine Park. Dubbed the state’s only cobblestone resort community, the region is famous for the granite rocks that emerge from beneath the ground, creating a natural cobblestone effect. While you’re in town, dabble in the splendor: Plunge into the swimming hole at stunning Bath Lake, or search for American bison roaming the grassy prairie in the neighboring Wichita Mountains.
