This stretch of Stillwater Creek in Oklahoma is 9.5 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class I-II section of whitewater. The put-in location is a reasonable drive from Stillwater, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. A good workout and spending some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. Stillwater Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling sections, the Carl Blackwell Spillway to Western
    Avenue section is the only one. If you'll be staying in a hotel you're in luck, lodging is available very near the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Oklahoma are easier than the national
norm, so you'd better keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. This is a pretty decent length section, it's good length for a morning trip. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby.
