More than six decades ago, the completion of the Pensacola Dam in Disney, OK created the Lake O’ the Cherokees, better known as “Grand Lake”. Before the completion of the mile-long, 15-story-tall dam that would impound the 1,672,000 acre feet body of water, an Intake structure was constructed at Honey Creek State Park on Grand Lake that provided water to the City’s Water Treatment Plant for over 60 years until 1994 when a new floating Raw Water Intake structure was built next to the “old intake structure” which made the old structure obsolete.

Our goal at the Grove Water Treatment Plant is to produce an abundant supply of clean, safe potable water to the citizens of the City of Grove and to all of the many tourists that visit our City throughout the year. Over the past few years, the rules and regulations that govern water treatment operations have become more and more stringent. We have met these new challenges at the Grove Water Treatment Plant and taken all the necessary steps to comply with these new rulings and for the most part, we have exceeded them as well.

Disc Golf Course - 7 acres

The newly constructed City of Grove 9-baskets (holes) Disc Golf Course is located along North Cherokee Street, adjacent to the Public Works Facility.

Disc golf is a fun game enjoyed by people of all ages.  The rules are very similar to regular golf.  There is a tee pad, fairway and a hole (basket).  The idea of the game is to throw the disc into the basket (hole) in as little throws as possible.
