Arcadia is located in central Oklahoma in
Oklahoma County about 6 miles east of
Edmond just north of
Arcadia Lake along historic
Route 66.
The town once thrived as a pit stop on old 66 but as times changed and the Interstate Highway System developed, the historic motor courts began to disappear. Today the nostalgia bug has bitten as thousands of tourists flock back to "the good old days". A favorite view is The Round Barn--a 4-story structure built in 1898 and recently restored by local volunteers and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
