The Lake Eufaula Association was founded with the purpose of promoting tourism to Lake Eufaula and the surrounding region including 5 counties, McIntosh, Haskell, Pittsburg, Okmulgee, and Muskogee. The association also provides travel information to tourist visiting Lake Eufaula.

Our goal is to advance and improve economic growth in the Lake Eufaula area. Tourism is the number one industry for the Lake Eufaula area.

LEA promotes attractions, events, and activities that will increase tourism. LEA builds partnerships with individuals, businesses, organizations, and government entities.

We are dedicated to working with all who support the vitality of the Lake Eufaula region. LEA is a member of the Oklahoma Lakes and Countries Association and partners with the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department to increase tourism to Oklahoma.
