McLoud, OK Home for Rent

McLoud, Oklahoma, a small town with a population just over 4,000, is known as the "Blackberry Capital of the World" due to its abundant wild blackberries. Despite its proximity to Oklahoma City, just a 30-minute drive away, McLoud maintains a rural atmosphere with most homes situated on large tracts of land. The town features bungalows and ranch-style homes on small- to mid-sized lots, while rural areas offer cabins and ranch-style homes on multi-acre properties. McLoud Veterans Park is a local highlight, hosting the annual McLoud Blackberry Festival and offering shaded picnic shelters and open fields. For those interested in things to do, Quail Ridge Sporting Clays provides skeet shooting, and Wes Watkins Lake offers fishing and a boat launch. The town's main supermarket is Firelake Express Grocery, with additional shopping available at Dollar General and the Walmart Supercenter in nearby Shawnee. Dining options include the McLoud Café and Curtis Watson’s Restaurant, known for its all-you-can-eat catfish. Students in McLoud may attend schools in one of three districts, with some zoned for the highly rated Dale Public Schools. Interstate 40 provides easy access to Oklahoma City and Tinker Air Force Base, while Shawnee, just 12 minutes away, offers additional shopping and medical services at SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital.
