A Glimpse of History
Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, the homes built in the Maple Ridge historic district were mostly constructed between 1912 and 1932, a few years prior to the housing boom that swept through the nation after WWII. Offering charming bungalows, stately estates, and welcoming family homes, the streets are wide and shaded by the canopies of mature trees; in the fall months the fiery colors of maple trees dressed in their finest autumn attire never fails to take your breath away.
Close to the Gathering Place
The Gathering Place, a 65+ acre park that is designed to be the center of family fun, is located within walking distance of the Maple Ridge neighborhood. Offering more than just sports courts, picnic tables, and playgrounds, (although it does have those items as well) the Gathering Place is different from any other park you may have experienced and will be a great addition to your Tulsa itinerary. Charlie’s Water Mountain is a splash pad of sorts, only open in the summer months. The Reading Tree, inspired by the oldest and largest cottonwood tree in the park, is where story time is held every Thursday. Also offering art in the park, restaurants that will be a tasty part of your fun, and global gatherings that celebrate the diversity and vibrance of Tulsa and the people that live here, you really could spend every minute at the park and still not cover all that is offered!
Period Touches
Although the homes we offer in the Maple Ridge neighborhood will offer modern amenities and are thoroughly updated, the period accents you love may still be visible. Crown moldings that add elegance and height to the walls, wood flooring that while beautifully restored, still offer signs that they have lived a lifetime, attic rooms with angled ceilings, subway tiles in kitchens, and quirky arches placed throughout the space remind travelers of simpler times when quality was expected and received. Floor plans may not be the open concept you are used to, and rooms may each offer four walls and a door, creating a retro charm that shines throughout. There is something wonderful about enjoying family game night in a dining room placed away from state-of-the-art televisions, ensuring that neither kids nor parents will be enticed to peek at the large screens.
Thoroughly Modern Accents
Today’s travelers are discerning ones, expecting luxury amenities and modern fixtures and our Maple Ridge sanctuaries will provide both. Fully equipped kitchens will feature new ranges, name-brand refrigerators with ice makers and water dispensers, and most will also offer dishwashers for easy clean up and microwaves for quick reheating of leftovers brought home from local restaurants. Coffee makers, Keurigs, blenders, and toasters may line the countertops and vent hoods may be stylish and hard working. Fireplaces in the living rooms may be gas, although some wood burning ones remain, and many homes will not feature this amenity. State of the art televisions may be Smart ones. High-speed internet will allow occupants to keep up to date on their social media sites or to attend virtual meetings when they can’t completely stay out of the office. Keyless entry allows for easy self-check-in and check-out at the beginning and end of your stay.
Our Vacation Rentals in Tulsa Offer The Comfort You Seek
A vacation home should be a soft place to land after a long day of explorations and adventures, and in every room we offer there will be something soft, something comfortable, or something to help you relax.
