The Crooked River Cabins sit on a bluff overlooking
the Glover River, Oklahoma's last free flowing river. The Glover
provides a wonderful opportunity at your backdoor to enjoy swimming,
fishing and canoeing.

we are surrounded by the incredible natural beauty of mountains,
forests and streams. The Glover River is part of the Honobia - Three
Rivers Wildlife Management area that also includes the Upper Mountain
Fork and Eagle Fork rivers. Encompassing 930,000 acres of Ouachita
National Forest and Weyerhauser-owned timberlands, the Honobia-Three
Rivers WMA is home to deer, wild hogs, wild turkey, black bear,
mountain lions, and elk.

ATV Rules - Ouachita National Forest in Oklahoma
Rules for off-highway vehicle (OHV) - this includes ATVs, 4-wheelers, 3-wheelers, utility vehicles such as mules & motorcycles. For a more pleasant visit, please take a moment to review the following:
OHVs may be used on open unpaved National Forest roads constructed and intended for normal or regular motor vehicles. A road is considered closed if there is a sign, gate, or other barricade, including a dirt mound, blocking the road. So, just because someone else went around or over that dirt mound that is closing the road doesn’t mean you should do the same. Prior illegal use does not imply permission to ride off the open road. You could receive a fine up to $300.00. You can drive on unpaved county roads but only in the National Forest – not elsewhere.
OHV use is not permitted on the forest floor (off-road).
Do not ride on or across a highway.
OHVs are not allowed on trails designated solely for hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian use.
Do not drive in or beside streambeds, creek beds, lakebeds, shorelines, or on power lines, pipelines, fire lines, or railroad right-of-ways.
Make sure your vehicle is in good condition with a USDA approved spark arrester.
Helmets required by Okla. Law for those under 18 years.
Passengers may not be carried unless specifically designed for this by the manufacturer. (Okla Law)
25 mph speed limit. Stop and yield right-of-way for horse riders. Horses may be spooked by vehicles.
You can consume beer, wine or liquor as long as you are not riding or driving. Drivers may not be intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol while driving.
Remember, “pack it in, pack it out.” Do not litter.
The Reason for the Rules: Heavy or irresponsible OHV use can wreak havoc on the environment. It can damage watersheds, destroy habitats, kill native plant and animal species, and pollute streams and rivers.
To help preserve these resources and the continued opportunities for you to enjoy using your vehicle on public lands, we ask that you observe the guidelines listed above and report violations.
There are other rules and regulations for the Three Rivers Management Area under the management of the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. Phone: (918) 527-5308
