About This Access Site
Heyburn Park offers a well-developed 2-lane boat ramp with a courtesy dock on Heyburn Reservoir (Polecat Creek), located near Kellyville in Creek County, about 15 miles southwest of Sapulpa. The facility is ideal for kayakers and canoeists looking for calm water exploration, with multiple access points around the lake providing convenient launch options. The ramp features a shallow slope, making it accessible for small watercraft and paddlers of various skill levels.

The park is a full-service destination with 46 campsites, two restroom/shower facilities, a large swim beach, and group shelters—perfect for extended trips or group outings. Fishing is excellent on the reservoir, with common catches including crappie, bass, and catfish (including larger species up to 30 pounds). The surrounding Sandstone Hills landscape offers scenic views and hunting opportunities in season.

For more information, contact the facility at 918-247-6601 or 918-865-2621. Recreation.gov offers campsite reservations. From I-44 (Turner Turnpike), take Exit 196 toward Bristow, then follow Highway 48 and OK-66 toward the park.
