I can't believe I haven't written about Rock Island yet! I totally forgot to add this one on the list. It was by far one of my favorites. If you want an EASY day adventure you should go. It's located outside of McMinnville, TN. We car camped on this trip last July 4th weekend. Oh, how we've learned since this trip. I believe this was the trip were Jeremy had the brilliant idea of using a yoga mat to sleep on b/c he didn't want to take up too much room in the car. WORST SLEEP EVER.
Good camp gear can cost a pretty penny, but it's well worth it for comfort & easy transport. The other thing we didn't have on this trip was wood for a campfire. A really nice man saw that we didn't have any and donated to our sorry cause.
There were several easy hikes around the camp site, but the best part were the falls. They were awesome and you could walk right under them (although that scared me).
Here's a little video we took. Please forgive the southern accent, it seems to come out really thick when I'm in the woods. Not sure why.
Here's the link to go to the TN State Parks Website.
