Perched above the beauty of Lake Eufaula sits Oklahoma’s newest town – Carlton Landing. This charming town is unlike anything found in Oklahoma and the moment you arrive, you’ll feel like you’re in Seaside, Florida, rather than the Sooner State.
Whether you enjoy nightly strolls around the block or an evening out on the grass watching the sunset, you’ll find tranquility in this delightful town.
Carlton Landing is a resort-style walking community on the shores of Lake Eufaula in northeastern Oklahoma. It was incorporated in 2013 with just 56 residents and has more than tripled its residency over the last few years.
