Standing Stone





Well it had been a long time since I visited this beautiful Tennessee State Park located north of I-40 in between Cookeville and Crossville. I attended a workshop here this weekend(4/25). This park is situated on 11,000 acres in Overton county within a "hilly" section of the Cumberland Plateau and was full of wild flowers many of which I'd also seen a few weeks ago in the GSMNP.
There are 8 miles of day use trails w/ no backcountry camping sites, a small lake to fish in. A Nice place to visit with cabins for rent, small boats to rent for the lake, facilities for meetings, playgrounds and other recreational opportunities w/ Dale Hollow Lake at the northern edge of the park.
