Explore Cave Spring, Oklahoma, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cave Spring, Oklahoma. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Oklahoma or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cave Spring.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Cave Spring emerges from the red-earth topography of the Oklahoma landscape, a place where the horizon stretches wide and the light holds a particular, amber clarity during the long afternoons. It lies 17.5 miles southeast of Tahlequah, OK (from Tahlequah, OK: bearing 137°T), and is situated 9.3 miles southwest of Stilwell. The terrain surrounding Cave Spring is defined by the gentle, persistent rise of the land as it approaches the distant silhouette of Denny Ridge, while the earth itself bears the iron-rich hue common to these plains. To the west, the quiet flow of Sallisaw Creek carves a path through the brush, its waters reflecting the pale, vaulted sky. Nearby, the expanse of Cookson Wildlife Management Area provides a rugged corridor for the native hardwoods and grasses that have long characterized this stretch of the Cross Timbers, offering a quiet, untamed counterpoint to the orderly patterns of the local fields.
History in Cave Spring remains etched in the quiet persistence of those who work the land, a narrative woven from the deep memory of Indian Territory and the slow, steady labor of agricultural life. The economic pulse here is tied to the soil and the seasonal rhythms of the plains, where the distance to Dahlonegah Lake marks the edge of the immediate watershed. Life moves with an unforced cadence, shaped by the proximity of Rider Hollow and the seasonal shifts in the wind that carry the scent of dry grass and approaching storms. Even as the modern world shifts, Cave Spring maintains a grounded, enduring character, defined by the stillness of the woods and the uncomplicated, sturdy presence of a life lived close to the land.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
