Chickasaw National Recreation Area information

Chickasaw National Recreation Area was officially established on July 1, 1902, but named Sulphur Springs Reservation. The original 640 acres of the area was purchased from the Chickasaw Indian Nation and subsequently added on through the years.

On June 29, 1906, Congress redesignated Sulphur Springs to become the Platt National Park, a title which it would retain for seventy years. Finally, in 1976, Congress combined Platt with nearby Arbuckle Recreation Area and renamed it to its current designation of Chickasaw National Recreation Area.
