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 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.
