Fall Creek Falls State Park is one of Tennessee’s largest and most visited state parks. The park encompasses more than 29,800 acres sprawled across the eastern top of the rugged Cumberland Plateau. Laced with cascades, gorges, waterfalls, streams and lush stands of virgin hardwood timber, the park beckons those who enjoy nature at her finest. Fall Creek Falls, at 256 feet, is one of the highest waterfalls in the eastern United States. Other waterfalls within the park include Piney Falls, Cane Creek Falls, and Cane Creek Cascades. The park is located in Bledsoe and Van Buren counties, 11 miles east of Spencer and 18 miles west of Pikeville. It may be entered from Highway 111 or Highway 30.
In 1937, the federal government began purchasing the badly eroded land around Fall Creek Falls. The following year, the Works Progress Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) began restoring the forest and constructing park facilities. A few years later in 1944, the National Park Service transferred ownership of the park to the State of Tennessee.
Fall Creek Falls features 30 cabins, 222 campsites, and the 85-room Lodge Fall Creek Falls. Backcountry camping is also available with a permit.
The park is home to a variety of activities suitable for visitors of all ages and abilities. Hikers can opt for short or long walks around the lake and to the base of Fall Creek Falls. There are two long-distance overnight trails for adventure-seeking visitors while the day-use trails are designed to accommodate recreational and educational activities for all ages. More than 56 miles of trails can be explored.

We arrived and we got to pick out our own campsite. Thanks to the friendly and helpful staff. Bathrooms were clean and the showers were warm water beautiful tall trees provided shade. Scenic Drive was stunning.
In 2023, We stayed at this resort in the summer months. At the end of our travels in 2023, we stayed through the winter as they are open year-round.
The staff was exceptional, and the resort is about 20 minutes from downtown Nashville.
I do not recommend camping on a shore site during winter, as the wind is colder off the lake.
Propane is available on-site, and the laundry room takes CC/Debit and is clean.
While camping right on a ledge would be neat, Hobbs is a great stopover. Keeps you dry if it’s pouring, but luckily the weather cleared for us for the night. We didn’t utilize the spring that is allegedly there. There are plenty of large and small sites, and it is not as trafficked as some of the other campgrounds in the park.
Ww made a reservation for April 19th and 20th but we had an emergency and had to cancel on April 16th and the lady said it was ok we couldn't make it but she said we couldn't get a refund but could come another time so we called yesterday to schedule the weekend of memorial day but they said we don't have a credit and we're just out of the money they just made it like it's OK I guess then once it got past the time we was supposed to come the lied
We camped here for 2 full weeks. The campground at Cedars of Lebanon State Park deserves 5 stars for their proximity to Nashville, the large paved pads for campers, the peaceful woods, and their overall cleanliness.
However, we were here when there was construction going on. It was LOUD from 8am to 4, 5, and even 6pm somedays with working trucks and digging up the Tennessee Rock.
The weekends were peaceful without the construction, and the trails are all easy and flat. The showers worked well and were the typical campground showers.
The wifi that is listed on the website is basically nonexistent, so don't count on that for anything important. But Verizon had good service, while AT&T was fair.
Only Campground 3 was open during our stay and you can see the work they are doing here is going to make a huge difference to be big rig friendly. Enjoy!
Stayed with our van in the primitive sites here and had a great time! Very affordable and not many other campers (but if the group camp sites are booked I’d go elsewhere, they’re very close). The bathroom is super far away, but there was a portable potty for a few days until they inexplicably took it away. If you have a camping bathroom setup and are comfy going to get water if needed, it’s a great value and gives you want more privacy.
Also the showers here are the best I’ve ever experienced at a campground. They have signs saying you can shower for $5 even if you don’t camp here.
This was a nice spot to stay by the water. Safe and friendly neighbors. Good place for kids to bike and play.
Our spot was near bathroom and the area was clean. Good hikes nearby. I had good cell reception as well with Verizon so was able to watch a little college football on Saturday.m
Wonderful place, hot water, clean sites. They have a daily trash service and several stores to visit
We spent a week on a Lakefront site with breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. Additionally, we were right next to one of the courtesy docks where our family members picked us up on their boat, enjoying the lake coves and scenery. Our campsite had all the amenities(Firepit, picnic table, site trash pickup) and was spacious. The swimming pool and laundry facility were clean. Note: The washers and dryers do not take quarters; pay by credit/debit card. The staff were top-notch and on top of things. The only 2 things that need improvement are the beach area, possibly some more sand, and extending the swimming boundary. Rocky Bottom must wear water shoes. The adjacent marina restaurant is not open for business, which was a little disappointing. In closing, overall, we had an exceptional stay
Stayed overnight- friendly staff, nice grounds, assistance to find site, clean pool was, small Camp store
This is the campground you dream of - beautiful old shade trees, lakefront sites (not all are waterfront but all are wonderful) clean baths and sandy shore swimming area - book sites 90, 91 or 92!
Beautiful park with lots of activities for kids. The hiking trails were well maintained but vary in difficulty (easy to moderate; side trails to overlooks steep and rocky). Over 200 rv sites, most are close to each other; plan ahead to get a good site. We reserved a year in advanced and at that time no full hook ups were available. The park is a top visited park in TN - it’s crowded.
Very clean with lots of activities for families. Highly recommend.
Only stayed one night (last night of our WA to SC trek) quiet campground. Super easy check in. Cash/check payment. Peaceful and not too buggy. Super friendly people
Couldn’t even stay here because I have a roof top tent/camper was super excited. Nice lady I talked to when I tried to book but apparently the owners allow no types of tents.
The entrance and exit is very narrow and steep even for our Sprinter motorhome, let alone something larger. Would not advise it!
We were so impressed with how much there was to do at this campground! There are so many trails, playgrounds, and bike/walk friendly roads. Our family of 6 stayed for 3 nights and had a lovely time. The sites were a bit cramped (our rig is 31') and parking our truck was a bit tricky. The store was convenient ands the staff were helpful and very friendly. Would definitely stay again-- it was absolutely beautiful!
Stayed there a lot.
Excellent park with easy access to Nashville excitement.
We didn’t actually stay here because after I booked I realized the water park is not open during the week although it had officially opened the week before. My mistake for not looking closer. However when I went to cancel our reservation which I had just made they informed me I would be charged a $25 cancellation fee and a $5 fee for booking online. The fine print said I would only be charged $10 for canceling because it was far enough in advance. They also tried to convince me to leave my booking as credit to use in the future but I think I’d just prefer somewhere more upfront with their policies. Any how, just a heads up to check that the water park is actually open before you book and don’t expect good customer service.
Checking in was easy and fast. The park was clean. The bathrooms were clean. The only issue we had was leveling our camper, there was a 7in difference between the sides and being new to camping we weren’t prepared to have to lift one side that much!
Overall this is a nice place. We didn’t see any “transients,” which seems like an unkind way to refer to car campers. There’s a fully paved trail that is very nice when the other trails are muddy. The bathrooms were regularly cleaned, showers were free and hot.
We didn’t love that there are 5 speed bumps before you get to campgrounds 2-3. Prepare to jiggle your camper! Also, most people used rope lights and left them on all night. There was a lot of light pollution.
We stayed in spot 50. Very quite campground. Well kept up park. Clean bathrooms. And the hikes are amazing!!!
Absolutely loved this park! Our site was an ADA and it was excellent. Lots of trails, waterfalls, and a great nature center.
It’s nice but pricey for low water pressure and okay camping
We spent the thanksgiving holiday weekend at this campground. It was easy to get in and out of the park, staff was super friendly and helpful. Hiking trails are well marked and in good condition. The campground was excellent!!
