👍👍 This is a fantastic stop off for any fan of Loretta Lynn and her family. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the family, not just Loretta. He made the tour very interesting and informative. On the way to the house you get to see the coal mine where Loretta's father worked as well as the scho...

👍👍 I really enjoyed this park! It’s different than most parks we’ve been to but Alot of fun. Would be a great place for a birthday party. Also has an open field to play in or fly kites. And this adorable goat that will walk right up to you and is super sweet! He’ll just let you pet him.

👍👍 I didn’t take at tour I just shopped for ice cream, fudge and cheese curds. The Ice cream: so I’m a 5’9” adult male on the slim side and I got two “calf” scoops one vanilla and one chocolate ice cream. And it’s enough. Omg the chocolate ice cream!!! It’s so rich. It’s amazing, the vanilla ice cream...

Nice playground and basketball courts. Nice clean shower house. Corn hole and lots of space between sites. The folks in the...

Seasonal pirate-themed water park featuring 7 slides, plus a year-round video arcade & snack bar.

👍👍 Okay, so it's a little off the beaten path. Minimal cell service, but it was there. Great lake access if you like that sort of thing. The spaces are big, and when we were there in midsummer, about 90% empty. Wonderful, quiet and beautiful. Lots of shade.

👍👍 My child seem to have an awesome time here. The hay stack climb was on her list to do. It's early in the Year, a school field trip, so we brought sack lunches. Plenty of animals to pet.

👍👍 I love this place. If you want to fish, hike trails, or take a scenic drive, this is the place to go. Beautiful rivers and lakes offer premium fishing. This is generally a safe place where you can take your children, but as with all public parks, you run the risk of finding some undesirables.

👍👍 Nice lake to kayak or fish. Several walking trails, including a paved walkway around the lake

👍👍 Fun hike!! Very short with fun views and places to get on the rocks. If you are afraid of heights you might want to skip going up top.

👍👍 The trees here are massive and beautiful. The Champion Cherrybark is an absolute wonder to stand underneath. It's gargantuan girth and multitude of trunks is astounding. Many of the Cypress trees within the pond are likely several hundreds of years old too judging by their girth and knees. This trai...
