Reviews
This is a really beautiful area. The people I met while renting a rustic cabin - Ashley and Mike - were very helpful, knowledgeable, and kind! Thank you!
Trails are not well marked at all. There are a lot of scenic views because of the unique rock formations but if you plan to hike plan on finding the trail completely on your own. Good environment for rock climbing.
Cool Place! There are no frills to the store/gift shop but the rock formations are cool! Imagine if Rock City in Chattanooga had never been developed... just lots of cool rock formations in the woods. Great spot for a walk! A beautiful lookout point as well.
If you've never been here before you definitely need to go. Absolutely amazing off the grid native American history experience. Especially for rock climbers, campers, backpackers, and hippies. My best friend got married there last weekend and it was great, amazing photos at this place. 5/5 for this low key place.
Some amenities are in need of repair, but the bouldering is great, atmosphere is also great.
Thank you for the hospitality! Campgrounds, camp store, rock climbing. Amazing scenery! Brought my kids when they were younger. This was my first visit in almost twenty years, and it's still as lovely and serene as ever! Looking forward to the next visit!
THIS! It's such a fun and beautifully magnificent place. Loved climbing around on the rocks and playing hide and seek with my best friend. Plenty of clean restrooms as well.

Have you been there?
You GOTTA GO!!
Honestly, if you live in Alabama or visit Alabama for some reason...
It is historic, lovely, stunning views and stupendous rock climbing potential here.
The management is knowledgeable, accommodating and24hour human security here!!!
If you camp outdoors, in a trailer or rent a cabin you can't go wrong.
There are are events scheduled regularly as well.
Music, arts and crafts... this would be the greatest site for a team building exercise or a family reunion.
I love it here. I can't wait to return again.
