About Sallisaw

The word Sallisaw was taken from the French word “salaison” meaning salt provisions. Prior to the founding of the town, the French called Sallisaw Creek “Salaiseau” because hunters salted bison meat there. Interestingly, now part of Sequoyah County, Sallisaw has been a possession of Spain, France, Cherokee Nation-Indian Territory, and now the United States. Situated 95 miles southeast of Tulsa along the I-40, Sallisaw is now home to 8,000 Oklahomans. Residents of an apartment or home for rent in Sallisaw who need to travel to Tulsa and other surrounding cities can use the Sallisaw Municipal Airport for private planes, although most use the direct rail lines which whisk passengers into Tulsa in under 80 minutes.

Local events like the Bikers & BBQ, Stamspeed Into Sallisaw, Lion’s Club Rodeo, Diamond Daze Festival, and Sequoyah OHCE Quilt Show are all highly anticipated during the year. Residents of a Sallisaw house or apartment for rent also love spending time at Brushy Lake State Park, Robert S. Kerr Reservoir, Applegate Cove Marina, 14 Flags Museum, Overstreet-Kerr Historical Farm, Sequoyah's Cabin, and the Blue Ribbon Downs & Racetrack. Both the Shadow Creek Country Club and Sallisaw Municipal Swimming Pool offer numerous recreational and meeting facilities to residents.
