Guests staying in the park's yurts have direct access to disc golf, canoeing, kayaking, and miles of hiking trails featuring distinctive geological formations. The swinging bridge, a historic CCC structure, serves as a popular attraction for glampers exploring the area. Nearby Tupelo, birthplace of Elvis Presley, provides cultural attractions within an easy drive from these glamping resorts. According to a camper, "I'm so glad I've finally checked this campsite off the list! It is a beautiful CCC camp that was built in the 1930s. It has primitive site, hookups, cabins and wall tents. There are lots of activities to do as well." Winter and early spring offer the most comfortable glamping weather, while summer visitors should prepare for higher humidity levels at these unique glamping experiences.
