About Wellston

Wellston is a quiet Lincoln County community of around 700 people, located about forty minutes northeast of Oklahoma City. The town got its start in the 1880s as a trading post founded by Christian Wells before growing into a settlement following the 1895 land run. Today, it offers a peaceful, open setting where neighbors know one another and daily life moves at a relaxed pace.

Getting around is simple thanks to quick connections to the Turner Turnpike and historic Route 66, which still loops right through the center of town. Rolling green countryside stretches out toward the Deep Fork River, giving the area plenty of scenic charm and room to breathe. It is an appealing spot for anyone looking for affordable land and a laid-back lifestyle within reasonable driving distance of the city.
