Qualls is an unincorporated community in Cherokee County, Oklahoma, United States.
The Qualls Post Office existed from January 20, 1909, until August 31, 1942.
One story is that sometime after the arrival of the Ross Party, who traveled the Trail of Tears due to the Indian relocation in 1838, a cabin owned by a family named Qualls was burned to the ground by the Cherokee Lighthorse police and that event gave birth to the area name "Qualls Burnt Cabin."
The name is further memorialized in Burnt Cabin Ridge State Park on the shores of Lake Tenkiller.
[citation needed] Today, "downtown" Qualls is defined by Jincy's Kitchen, a home-cooking diner now operating in a building formerly used as a set in two movies, including "Where the Red Fern Grows".
