About David Crockett State Park

1959 marks the founding of this park, set on land tied to the frontiersman David Crockett, who once operated a gristmill and distillery along the creek here. The grounds preserve that early industrial history alongside the natural landscape surrounding it. Visitors can walk trails that trace the same waterways once used to power his mill operations, connecting the site's rural Tennessee setting to its namesake's documented past.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
