This is one of America's top parks and truly not to be missed. The Gathering Place is not just for children. It has a huge lodge with a cozy chairs and fireplaces to read or study, overlooking a lake and an ice cream shop on the bottom level. A small restaurant outside the lodge sells hamburgers, chicken strips etc. and you can even purchase a beer to sip while you watch your kids play in the sandboxes nearby.
There's a boathouse where you can rent paddle boats or kayaks, shady walking trails throughout the massive park and charming, interactive play structures for children of all ages.

There are so many fun and educational things for the kids to enjoy here and the cost of admission is very reasonable. My grandson’s favorite part is crawling through the clear plastic tunnels that run overhead and sliding down the connected slides. There are also a lot of fun science experiments they can take part in and a ball pit area where they can shoot foam balls.

Tulsa has a rich music history and thriving music scene today and many musicians have made their homes here.
The life story and artistry of Woody Guthrie, who hails from Oklahoma, come alive in this charming downtown Tulsa museum. For music and history buffs, this museum is not to be missed. See the actual lyrics of his poignant ode to America -- This Land is Your Land -- take shape on paper.
When you're done, visit the Bob Dylan center right next door. Dylan's admiration for Guthrie's music and ideals spurred him to choose Tulsa for his archives over his home state of Minnesota.

Food scene
A ton of great restaurants and a smattering of boutiques all along this pedestrian-friendly street. Some of my favorite food spots on Cherry Street — which runs several blocks along 15th from Utica to Peoria — include Andolini’s or Hideaway (both casual pizza places), Smoke ( pricier but not fussy), Kilkennys (fun Irish pub), Roosevelts (elevated bar food in a beautiful setting) and one of the best restaurants in Tulsa: the Palace Cafe (special occasion worthy).
Ladies there’s also a Dry Bar there if you want to get a blowout.

Utica Square is the perfect place for a day of shopping and dining. Start out with brunch at either Queenies or the Wild Fork (reservations recommended), hit Anthropologie, the Coach store, White House Black Market or one of 100 other stores, in a beautiful outdoor setting with trees and flowers.
Besides Queenies (try the desserts) and Wild Fork, other recommended non-chain restaurants in Utica Square: Stonehorse, the Polo Grill and Peppers Grill (Mexican).
Stonehorse has an attached gourmet shop of ready-made food like scalloped potatoes, spaghetti bolognese and chili verde that you can take home and heat up. They also sell meats and homemade breads.
There’s also a PF Chang’s, Olive Garden and Fleming’s Steakhouse in Utica Square. The high-end Marilyn Ihloff salon offers massages, hair services etc.
