I have heard so much about this place and some that are close to it. Tennessee is only 1 state away, so I plan to see this one soon and a few others to go with it.
Fall Creek and Coon Creek Falls, Tennessee

Burgess Falls outside of Cookeville TN has to be one of the most impressive, close up waterfalls that I have ever seen. I would recommend adding it to your list.
Thank You Sal, I plan to visit that one before Fall Creek. It will be a 6 hour drive over to the west side of the mountains, so I must plan to see a number if good ones. Are there any others in this area that you recommend?
Hey Chris, Burgess, Falls Creek and Abrams (Smokey Mountains) are the only 3 that I have visited in TN.
Personally, I was disappointed in Fall Creek Falls but it was a dry year so that could explain it. If you have time to kill, Abrams Falls in the Smokeys is nice. Its a good place to stop on the way back to NC if you need to stretch your legs.
But Burgess….Wow, t was just incredible! The height and the amount of water coming over the falls…it was actually scary. But its a definite must see…the pictures do not do it justice.
Have fun…. looking forward to your write up on it !

Hey Chris, I just read an article about Rock Island State Park in TN. Not sure if you are still planning on going to TN or not…looks nice ! Here is a link to the park : http://tnstateparks.com/parks/about/rock-island
Thank you Sal! I am still planning to go. The weather didn’t seem to work out too well while I had some extra time off though…
