Cave Spring is a census-designated place (CDP) in Adair County, Oklahoma, United States. Part of the Cherokee Nation, it was first listed as a CDP prior to the 2020 census.[2]

The CDP is in southwestern Adair County, bordered to the southeast by Bunch and to the northeast by Lyons Switch. Bunch Road crosses the southeast side of the community, leading south 2.5 miles (4.0 km) to Bunch and northeast 12 miles (19 km) to Stilwell, the county seat.

The CDP is hilly and mostly forested, with elevations ranging from 800 to 1,200 feet (240 to 370 m) above sea level. Sallisaw Creek, a south-flowing tributary of the Arkansas River, forms the boundary between Cave Spring and Bunch.
