Our hike was a loop that took us through a waterfall, woods and an overlook. The hours are limited: weekend hours only and it closes at 5 pm. It is part of a land trust.

I would appreciate some wood signs discerning the junctions from one another. There are several social trails that will mislead you and could easily be fixed with a social trail sign or caution tape. I color coded the map attached to this review to show my route. I parked at the trailhead for the fitness trail. I walked the pink line to the museum and walked the yellow line back. Once I took a break, I did the green line. Due to poor planning I didn't realize the bike trail wasn't a loop and so I didn't intend to do two there and back hikes I'm not sure why it's not a loop as it could likely be connected from where it ends at the amphitheater to the 0.40 mile mark on the part of the bike trail headed straight to the museum... The visitor center/museum can be walked to from the bike trail. It's got information and artifacts from David Crockett's life and stuff. They also have several birds of prey outside that you can view anytime. The park rangers are very friendly and helpful when kids want to learn about the birds.

Nestled along the back roads of Tishomingo County, this park feels like a second home. With hiking…read moretrails for every level of experience, there's truly something for everyone. The campground offers over 60 sites, plus six cozy cabins. Three of these are rustic stone cabins with two rooms each, while the other three are smaller, single-room cabins. Cabin Six has been beautifully updated with new floors, furniture, appliances, and a modern bathroom. For larger groups, the park also has three group camp cabins--each with 20 bunk beds and spacious bathrooms that include showers, toilets, and sinks. The park is full of history and adventure. Visitors can explore the Pioneer Cabin and its nearby waterfall, or cross the famous swinging bridge--a suspension bridge that stretches 25 feet over Bear Creek. On the other side, you'll find two trails perfect for bouldering, rock climbing, or simply wandering through the forest. Wildlife is abundant, with deer, squirrels, raccoons, and plenty of other critters calling the park home. There are three scenic pavilions for picnics or gatherings. Pavilion One has restrooms nearby, Pavilion Two overlooks Haines Lake, and Pavilion Three also offers a beautiful view of the water. The dining hall is available for weddings, reunions, meetings, and other special events. Fishing enthusiasts will love the three fishing spots: Haines Lake, a quiet pond behind the Pioneer Cabin, and Bear Creek beneath the swinging bridge. For families, the park includes two playgrounds, a sports field, and plenty of picnic tables with cast-iron grills scattered throughout. Outdoor fun continues with three disc golf courses designed for different skill levels. And when it's time to clean up, the campground features two bathhouses that are always kept tidy by the hardworking park staff. Tishomingo State Park is more than just a destination--it's a place where history, nature, and community come together.

Absolutely GORGEOUS!…read more My friend Hannah took me to this hidden gem of a trail. While just off a main road, it wasn't too busy, only a couple cars in the lot. The trail system is vast with smaller off shoots spurring from the main trail. There are small cave and tunnel passes to explore as well as some mild to average level rock climbing spots. Bring comfy shoes or hiking boots as there are some pretty rugged spots, there are also warnings regarding poison ivy, so prepare for that if you have adverse reactions to it. Dogs are allowed but, must be leashed. I completely bent that rule, she had a leash... I just wasn't holding it. There aren't many trash cans on the trail so please make sure to be courteous to others and pack out what you pack in. This is also a historical battlefield site: The Battle of Days Gap April 30th 1863 Great Place! Big enough for a full day's worth of hiking. Also has trails short enough for a couple hours of relaxing in the woods.

Tour times don't seem to be specified anywhere, but when we randomly stopped in early on a Saturday afternoon, we only had to wait 10 minutes or so. We were 2 of just 5 on tour, so nicely intimate. The starting point is the parking and building across the street from the house. We were told not to sit anywhere or touch anything, A bit of a downer for someone like me who is constantly leaning or sitting, but the tour is not particularly long, and the house did have a/c installed by the original owners, so it's not uncomfortable.
