Wah-Sha-She Park

Wah-Sha-She Park is a 266-acre recreation area on Hulah Lake in Osage County, Oklahoma, offering boating, fishing, swimming, and camping, with nearby hunting and birdwatching areas adding to its outdoor appeal. Established in 1973, it was formerly known as Wah-Sha-She State Park, and its name is associated with the Osage people, either as “the water people” or through an older tribal name recorded by Jacques Marquette in 1673. After Oklahoma moved to close the park in 2011, the Osage Nation took over management, but financial strain led to a new arrangement in which the Hulah Lake Osage Association helped keep the park open through volunteer work and camping fees.
