Facility Overview

Situated in the heart of Haworth in southeastern McCurtain County, Oklahoma (at coordinates 33.846500, -94.652711), this central town parking area serves as a primary, convenient vehicular stop for locals, municipal visitors, and regional travelers. Designed as an open-air surface parking area, the facility offers street-grade, single-level parking with direct sightlines and simple maneuvering. Because the lot is completely open-air with no overhead structures or low-hanging clearance barriers, it accommodates all standard passenger vehicles as well as large heavy-duty pickup trucks, commercial service vans, dual-rear-wheel trucks, and vehicles towing small utility or boat trailers commonly used across rural Oklahoma.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Haworth enjoys a relaxed, small-town flow, meaning parking spots are routinely accessible throughout ordinary business hours. During Haworth Lions Friday night home football games or major school district celebrations, street parking and central lots can fill quickly, so aim to arrive 15 to 20 minutes before kickoff. Because this is an open-sky surface facility, remember to utilize a windshield sunshade during warm summer months to keep your vehicle interior cool. Always ensure your vehicle is locked with personal belongings placed out of plain view when parked for extended periods.
