Wewoka Lake, sometimes called Lake Wewoka,[1][2] is a 500-surface-acre reservoir in Oklahoma, with 10 miles of shoreline.[3] It is located just northwest of the City of Wewoka, Oklahoma, the Seminole County seat.[4]

While developed by the City of Wewoka in the 1920’s as a water reservoir,[2] opportunities at the lake today include fishing & boating; RV & primitive camping; and, swimming & water skiing.[3][5]
