Haikey Creek Park is a notable recreational area located in Tulsa County, Oklahoma, named after C. Ben Haikey, a preacher and tribal member of the Union Band of Opotheleyahola Creek, now recognized as the Muscogee Nation. Haikey began preaching the gospel in 1901 under a brush arbor on his land, which eventually became the park. The park encompasses 170.26 acres and was acquired by the county between 1970 and 1985. Unique to Haikey Creek Park is the opportunity for visitors to simultaneously stand in two locations, as it straddles the boundary between Bixby and Broken Arrow.
The park is situated at 11327 S. Garnett Ave. in Broken Arrow. Visitors can enjoy the park from early morning until late at night, as it is open from 7 AM to 11 PM.
Haikey Creek Park offers a variety of features and amenities catering to outdoor enthusiasts. The park includes multiple sports courts and fields, five picnic pavilions for gatherings, and an 18-hole disc golf course. All disc golf events and fundraisers must receive prior review by the Tulsa Disc Sports Association, the park's partner in promoting recreational activities. For those looking to engage in physical activity, there is a 2.3-mile walking trail, as well as picnic tables and grills for outdoor meals. Families can take advantage of designated playgrounds while the park also provides restrooms and open green spaces for leisure activities.
