As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

We’ve previously featured lots of quirky places around the state, but one of my favorites is Happy Days Hotel in McAlester. It’s the perfect spot for a staycation because they have everything you need on-site so you never have to leave during your stay. From bowling and entertainment to food and recreation, this ’50s-era attraction will have you smiling throughout your stay. Check it out below:

For starters, this place is called Happy Days Hotel so you know you're going to have a good time as you step back into 1950 when rock and roll is king.
