Explore Deer Lick, 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 Deer Lick, 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 Deer Lick.
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.

Deer Lick occupies a quiet expanse of the Oklahoma landscape, defined by the red earth that clings to the roots of scrub oak and the persistent, restless wind that scours the plains. It lies 29.6 miles south-southeast of Miami, OK (from Miami, OK: bearing 166°T), and is situated 9.4 miles south of Grove. The terrain here is marked by the subtle depression of Yellow Bird Hollow, where the shadows linger long after the sun has cleared the horizon, and the nearby flow of Drowning Creek provides a slow, steady pulse to the countryside. Beyond the immediate fields, the silhouette of Pleasant Ridge breaks the skyline to the west, a distant reminder of the rugged geological shifts that shaped this region. When the light fades toward dusk, the air takes on a metallic clarity, illuminating the tall grasses that bend under the weight of the cooling breeze, while the waters of Whitewater Creek Site 3 Reservoir remain as still as a polished mirror, reflecting the vast, darkening sky.
Deer Lick carries the weight of a complex history, existing as a quiet chapter in the long narrative of Indian Territory where the legacies of the Cherokee and other displaced nations remain etched into the social character. The economy here is tethered to the land and the modest industry that supports it, characterized by a deliberate, measured pace that favors endurance over rapid expansion. Residents often look toward the recreational quiet of Lake Eucha Park to find respite, navigating a life governed by the seasonal demands of the soil and the cycles of the regional climate. While the bustle of larger centers remains far removed, Deer Lick maintains a distinct identity, one defined by the resilience of its inhabitants and a stubborn, quiet pride in the simple labor required to thrive in this corner of the state.

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.
