There is a large, fenced in playground with plenty of equipment for kids to climb on and play. They even have small slides for Littles and a swing for wheelchairs, which is a wonderful new addition. There are bathroom facilities, a covered picnic area, tennis courts, a basketball court, and it is right next to a recreational center/pool/fitness center. It's right on the water and there is a series of trails, with the option of listening to information via an audio tour along the trails. Great area for people of all ages.

If you are looking for a camp where your kids will sit around and play video games and be bored,…read morethis is NOT it. But if your kids love being challenged and love the outdoors, this is where you want them. My son is going to camp here for the seventh summer in a row and there is no place he would rather be. Our daughter loved being a camper here so much the five summers that she came here that she is spending this summer as a counselor. The kids stay busy doing things like tubing on Carter Lake, rafting, swimming, horseback riding in addition to playing amazing tribal games. But there is also a focus on spending time with God and how important that is for us. The counselors and staff are simply amazing. They are fun and full of energy and love and compassion. I could not recommend this camp more highly. It is truly magnificent.

That is the ONLY positive I can share. The service was BEYOND awful. They treated us like they didn't want us there the entire time. They are NOT kid friendly. We were a low key respectable group.

My grandparents lived in Madisonville, TN at that time and we traveled here to visit. I've always wanted to visit again but could not find it until recently. All I could remember was the 10 commandments on the side of a mountain. This park is beautiful! You do have to walk to visit the various areas. But they also have paths that you can take your car. It's free, all they ask for is a donation but nobody manning a booth or anything. They do have restrooms and it is dog / pet friendly since it's all outside. Worth a visit if in the area.

So this was my second time coming here, after coming up with friends two weeks ago and having a…read moreblast. This place is certainly up in the middle of nowhere Blue Ridge but worth the trip. You'll find deeper water here and less spots to get stuck. There is a huge grassy parking lot across the street from the ticket office, with an underpass (walkway under the highway) to safely cross. The only issue with the grassy field is the amount of flies and bugs over in it, so I'd suggest doing all your pre-tubing stuff in the tubing parking lot (sunscreen application, changing, etc). This place is an actual campground for RVs, Campers and tents. It's actually pretty nice, if you're looking to camp. Plus, you have a tubing place onsite! They have two types of tubes: ones with a hole so your butt gets wet and ones with a hole and cover at the bottom (no wet butt). They also have kayaks available, which might be something I get next time. The life jackets are required for each person but you can use them to anchor each persons tube to another tube. Cost was super cheap (I think it was $8 a person?). The drop in is easy and it's about a 2 hour tubing trip. Very scenic, cleaner water than you'll find closer to Atlanta, deeper, colder and less spots to get stuck. They have a pickup spot just before a bridge on the left hand side of the river, with short buses running about every 15 minutes or so. There is no alcohol or coolers allowed, or cans/bottles allowed on the river. You can bring a 32oz container with a "drink" in it. Yes, genius, loophole. My recommendation is to bring a dry sack with you and attach it to your tube ... you can put sunscreen, change of clothes, etc . The river water is very cold and can keep your "drink" cold. I had a blast both times! Be very weary of huge rocks you can't see in the river where the rapids are. They can certainly cut up your legs and also hurt your butt if you have it in the water during the faster rapids. Will certainly recommend this spot to others and come back. Wish it were a little closer!
