David Crockett State Park

About David Crockett State Park

David Crockett State Park was inaugurated on July 1, 2016 in honor of David Crockett's 100th birthday. David Crocksett was a pioneer of the soldier, politician, and industrialist movement who was born on April 4, 1842, in a suburb of Charleston, South Carolina, the son of a slave owner.

In 1817, he moved to Lawrence County and served in the U.S. Army, first as an officer and later as a colonel. He built a diverse industry, consisting of a powder mill, a grill mill and a distillery, but a flood washed away all three businesses in September 1821.

Financial difficulties and losses prompted Crockett to move to West Tennessee, where he was elected to Congress. In Washington, he fought to keep the people who had settled the land on the new border with western Tennessee. He died in 1821 after helping Texans in their struggle for independence from Mexico.

The two campsites in the park consist of two small, self-contained drilling rigs, each equipped with a two-storey bathhouse and a one-room hut. The bathhouses offer hot showers, dressers and toilets, and each campsite provides a basis for the first - come, first - service.

The maximum duration of stay is two weeks, with a maximum of four days at the campsite and a minimum of three days at each of the two campsites.

On the main campsite of the park there is a large swimming pool that can accommodate up to 30 campers. The swimming pool is open from Memorial Day until late summer and lifeguards are in use during swimming hours. For children there is plenty of lawn and paddling pool, and the pool with its deep, shallow water offers some of the most beautiful water fun.

The park operates boat rentals, and pedal boats can be rented from Memorial Day until the end of August. You can rent fishing boats all year round, as well as kayaks, canoes, pedal boats and kayaks from June to August and from July to September.

Fishing is allowed anywhere on the shore of the lake, as well as boat fishing. All fishermen under 13 have a valid Tennessee fishing permit, but no more than one boat per day.
