Where Disney is Located

Disney is situated in northeastern Mayes County at the east end of Pensacola Dam on State Highway 28. The town is named after former Oklahoma U.S. Congressman Wesley E. Disney and has no affiliation with The Walt Disney Company or Walt Disney.

​

Population and Size of Disney

Don't be misled by the numbers! Officially, the town's population is approximately 300, as only permanent residents are counted in the U.S. Census. However, this does not account for the numerous vacation homes that contribute to Disney's community, nor the steady influx of visitors who stay in campgrounds, cabins, or hotels throughout the year. During special events and peak seasons, the number of people in Disney often exceeds two thousand.

A Town Built on Recreation, Adrenaline, and FUN!

Disney is renowned worldwide for its vehicle rock climbing, off-road trails, and adventure activities. Within the city limits are five recreation areas of Cherokee State Park, offering off-road rock climbing, trails, and mudding for off-road vehicles. Visitors can also enjoy camping, swimming, picnicking, boating, fishing, skiing, and kayaking. Many off-road event attendees also spend time fishing, boating, or kayaking on the water.
