Oklahoma Travel: Luxury Cabins in Broken Bow and Historic Dining at Carletti's OKC

Show Notes

In this episode of the Only in OK Show, we’re traveling from the serene canopy of the Kiamichi Mountains to a revived 1930s speakeasy in Oklahoma City. First, we explore Mount Mirabelle, a luxury cabin in Hochatown that feels like a romantic movie set, complete with cathedral ceilings and sunset views. Then, we head to OKC to visit Carletti’s, where a 200-year-old Bolognese recipe is being served inside a historic hillside building once known for its "shady" nightlife.

Looking for a "workcation" spot or a romantic escape? We’re diving into the details of Mount Mirabelle, a Sababa Homes property that perfectly balances modern luxury with the rugged beauty of Broken Bow.
