Savage Gulf State Park

This gorgeous gem was the best mid point to our backpacking trip. Can't wait to go back to enjoy it once more.

Beautiful trail, only 2 miles long, out and back, lots of photo opportunities, with a waterfall and and an amazing overlook.

Took this photo at the Stone Door overlook. Love visiting the Great Stone Door in Beersheeba Springs, Tennessee.

This is the Collins West area in the Savage Gulf - aka South Cumberland State Park. This is Horsepound falls. Been here several times. One of my favorites hikes in TN. Also great place to take kids backpacking or camping. The campground is only about a ten minute walk from the parking lot.

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,779 reviews)

It was an excellent day. It is apartment style living where you do hear all of your neighbors. However, the cleanliness and the host were phenomenal.

Rebecca the front desk manager was absolutely amazing, and so welcoming and helpful. It was my birthday and she made sure to really make me feel so special. The car service was also an incredible surprise and really made our trip so much better. Truly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in a while.
