Skiatook Lake is a 10,500-acre U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir on Hominy Creek in Osage County in northeastern Oklahoma — a quality recreational boating and fishing destination serving the Tulsa northern suburbs and the Skiatook and Owasso communities approximately 20 miles north of downtown Tulsa. The lake’s position in the rolling Osage Hills gives Skiatook a distinctly different character from the flatter terrain surrounding most Oklahoma reservoirs — the red cedar and blackjack oak shoreline and the Osage County ranch country surrounding the lake create a natural setting that draws boaters seeking a less crowded alternative to the larger Keystone Lake and Grand Lake reservoirs. Largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, catfish, and white bass provide a consistent fishery across Skiatook’s Hominy Creek arm and cove structure managed by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. Find Boat Services lists verified boat repair, motor service, electronics installation, trailer repair, and winterization providers serving Skiatook Lake within 20 miles across Osage and Tulsa counties.
