Awesome trail. Beautiful scenery. Took us about 35 minutes to walk the loop. Had to scramble to find our car but my instincts and the map from alltrails on our phone paid off! Well worth the 1.5 hour drive from our house!

Could use a few trashcans along the trail. The workers drive their ATV along the paved trail everyday anyway. Why not put trash cans down by the bench near the dam & empty it every few days? Maybe it would reduce how many bottles and cans are left everywhere.

This is a nice park close enough to the highway to be used by motorists needing a break. There is a paved trail for walking and several pavilions. As of today July 24,2020 there is a LOT of work needed on the playground. However I have 4 stars because the bathrooms have already been renovated and the playground area looks like it is being worked on now. If the updates are made this would be a great stop/pause for long drives.

We had a very nice picnic here in the park. Some people were walking their dog, and it was a quiet spot to eat. There was trash on the ground which makes us angry. It wasnt there when we left. Not saying we are perfect. But this is for everyone to enjoy. Why not keep it clean for others?

Loved camping here! The staff was so good to us, and helped us jump the car. The lake is beautiful, too! However, we didnt get to the campground until after dark and finding our site was super difficult because it was our first time there. It would have been a lot easier if there were signs pointing out lot numbers!

I love this park. The walking trail has plenty of options. I love how they have facts about the different trees. The only reason i didnt give 5 stars is the public bathrooms are always nasty and dont have soap and papertowels. But keeping public bathrooms cleaned is a full time job.

Very nice and quiet. Good for a relaxing walk in nature, the walking path is paved and also has some exercising equipment at the end towards the gravel lot. This park connects to the fairgrounds and an apartment complex. Has picnic tables, fire pit, small playground, and restrooms.

This park was pretty lame for kids. The playground equipment was ancient and is way overdue on needing updating. The playground consisted of a couple swings, a slide that was totally unsafe to be on, a climbing thing, and a spring horse that was buried in the sand/dirt. We are from out of state, the kids needed a break from traveling but this was not the place to stop. Crossville In general seems to lack parks and playgrounds. Big disappointment! We walked a trail briefly by the playground which has some nice excercising equipment so really surprised that the city has not invested in playground equipment.
