Medicine Park, Okla Population 385 listed.  

Say "Oklahoma" and mountains don't exactly leap to mind. Yet mountains—namely the broken granite domes of the Wichitas—are precisely why Medicine Park, about 75 miles southwest of Oklahoma City, exists. Built as a planned resort for overheated Okies, the town is a patchwork of manicured lawns, arched footbridges, and red cobblestoned lanes on the banks of Medicine Creek. "This area looks a lot more like Colorado wilderness than what you'd expect to find in Oklahoma," says Pegi Brown, 62, a longtime San Francisco resident who moved to Medicine Park with her husband, Clark. They now run the four-room Stardust Inn B&B, where "you can walk along the river past waterfalls, oaks, and pines, or hike into the Wichitas, right out your door." Each Memorial Day weekend, visitors and residents alike come out for the Red Dirt Ball, which showcases red dirt music, an indigenous mix of folk, bluegrass, and honky-tonk; the mayor himself invites acts like the Red Dirt Rangers and the Bobby Dale Band to play free open-air concerts for all to enjoy.

I've been to Meers before, long time ago, maybe 10-12 years.  Took a tour of the State for vacation one year, that was one of our scheduled stops.  

I see they now have a Meers Gold Beer.   Is it any good?

I think Bartlesville is my favorite "Small Town" in Oklahoma. . . next to Tulsa of course!

I didn't try the beer.  We hit it both times around 1pm on our way to Altus one time and on our way to Wichita Falls the other.  I didn't want to get sleepy on the remainder of the drive.  As well, it's brewed by Choc and I'm simply not a huge fan of their beer.

Nebraska also has alot of tiny towns out in the western parts of the state, each one has it's own personality. It'll be ruff to pick out just one Kewl Town. In Kansas they have wild towns near the western state line.
