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.

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…
