| Edmond - Central (Frontier Country) | |||||||||
Beginning as an exclusive bedroom community, this Oklahoma City suburb has quickly become a destination for recreation, shopping and dining. The downtown area offers 30+ shops from the eclectic to the traditional, and antique lovers will find plenty to like in this territorial-style environment. Hungry appetites will find relief at one of the approximately 200 restaurants located here. The hard part is deciding which one. Fine dining at restaurants like Cascata and The Boulevard is part of the Edmond experience. So is the unique University of Central Oklahoma Jazz Lab where you can enjoy great jazz and blues in a smoke free environment while munching on Oklahoma's own Hideaway Pizza. And a stay at the elegant Arcadian Inn Bed & Breakfast is the perfect getaway for romance and indulgence. World class sculptures are scattered like jewels throughout the city, lining streets and tucked into corners, waiting to surprise you with their unexpected beauty. If outdoor recreation interests you, check out nearby Arcadia Lake for fishing, hiking and eagle watching. Or enjoy Pelican Bay, a new water playground in the heart of Edmond including swimming and diving areas, water sprays, 150-foot slides, cabanas, and more. Just minutes away are attractions such as the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, Remington Park Racetrack, the Omniplex, historic Guthrie and Lazy E Arena.
