Nichols Park is a large area on the southeast side of Henryetta. The Indian National Turnpike runs through the park north-south. Nichols Lake is man-made. On the east side of the lake, a sand beach has been created which attracts many summer visitors.

The bathhouse is a one-story building constructed by the CCC in 1938, using crudely cut, coursed and rusticated native sandstone. The roof is gabled with wood shingles. The original bathhouse rooms have been opened up and the bathhouse now serves as a picnic pavilion. The facade facing the lake is open at the center, with an overhang gable. The interior roof rafters are exposed. Leading down toward the beach is a wide, oval set of seven stone stairs, and a stone patio. Another set of stone stairs leads from the bathhouse northeast and up a hill to the parking lot.
