About Konawa

Located in southwestern Seminole County, Konawa offers a quiet, small-town pace right at the crossroads of State Highways 9A and 39. The town takes its name from a Seminole word meaning "string of beads," originally springing up in the early 1900s when the railroad arrived and drew nearby farming families together. Today, it still maintains that classic Oklahoma rural charm, serving as a peaceful home base surrounded by open farmland and scenic country roads.

One of the biggest perks of living here is Lake Konawa, located just west of town. With roughly twenty miles of shoreline, it is a favorite local spot for boating, camping, and some of the best year-round bass fishing in the region thanks to warm waters from the nearby power plant. Daily life moves at an easy, unhurried rhythm, making it an appealing spot for anyone looking to trade city noise for wide-open skies, friendly neighbors, and quick access to the water.
