Tennessee's Edgar Evins State Park |
This park is located on Center Hill Lake, near Cookeville, TN. The park office has a nice observation tower... |
...but you don't even need to climb it to get a very nice view of the back side of Center Hill Dam. And in the distance you can make out the cooling tower at what would have been Hartsville Nuclear Plant. |
There is a marina and restaurant there, so you don't have to cook if you don't want to. The "cabins" are not really cabins, but rustic condos. You have a great room with kitchenette upstairs, and a bedroom with 2 full beds downstairs. The sofa is a sleeper, so you could accomodate 6 folks, but you have only the one bathroom. Still, very nice for the two of us, although Pat was disappointed that he didn't have a fireplace to play with. |
Each building has 6 condos, except A, which only had four. |
There are several trails in the park, but we didn't get to hike any of them, since we spent the one full day we had there questing (very successfully I might add!). See the trip report here. |
