Very nice place to go and sit on the rocks as the stream flows around you. Lovely bridge to stand on and take photos as well. I saw several people taking photos here. 1 star was taken off for the parking. There is not enough places to park and walking from the top area is very down hill. There is a trail you can walk as well, but I did not check it out.
The covered bridge is the start of the Vickery Creek Trail, that involves stairs, a meandering path, a waterfall, and even some involuntary rock climbing. The covered bridge is lovely and well taken care of. To get to the waterfall, climb up the stairs after crossing the covered bridge, and then make a left to follow the creek. You will see another path to the left where there is a watering hole waterfall. Signage isn't very clear and there were a lot of people getting lost finding the waterfall. We hiked the southern loop, and didn't realize there is a 100 yard stretch of rocks and boulders to cross. It is a little treacherous here so wear shoes with good traction. The loop will bring you back to the bottom of the bridge.
This is one of the best park I have visited. This park is for everyone. Means if you like a walking trails there is plenty of them, if you like to be near to nature, you can enjoy the great water fall in there, if you want to spend your ME time just doing nothing. There is plenty of place you can sit in peace. If you guys want to take your kids or dogs, you can have a lots of fun. In here you can know about history and enjoy the history of this place. Parking is free but don’t have a lots of parking lot. I went on weekdays and it’s almost full. Restroom in here is also clean and hygiene. All toiletries are there. Main things is restroom smells good. Thank you for the management. If you are PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER you have to take a permit to take a photo in here. And in this pandemic all people followed the social distance. Just go there and enjoy your time. If you like please go through the picture which I have uploaded. It gives you some view of the place.
Breathtaking waterfalls, easy trails and great views added to an already beautiful Fall day! There’s plenty of parking and clean, well-lit bathrooms. The remnants of the cotton mill from the 1800s are still preserved. Well worth a visit.
Such an amazing park! The trails are extensive and well kept and the remains of the mill are a visual treat. One of our favorite spots around town although the terrain may pose a challenge for the less adventurous. It can get busy during peak hours, especially as the weather starts to warm.
This is definitely in my Top 5 local parks. The history is so fascinating, it's well-maintained and respected, and a practicing photographer's dream. Not to mention, the variety of having seven miles of different trails to hike gives it great revisitation value; I've even seen weddings held on the bridge, and they look exquisite. Absolutely beautiful.
This is hands down the most beautiful park I have ever been to! But Parking is terrible on Saturday. There is a parking lot up the street at the visitors center which is where I parked. I highly recommend parking there as it is difficult to turn around in the small triangular parking lot actually at the park and it is too crowded with people trying to find non-existent parking spaces. Even with all that mess it's still five stars because the scenery is just breathtaking especially in the fall. There's lots of informational plaques telling about the rich history of the old mill during Civil the War. Well worth the trouble in the parking lot. I would definitely bring my friends and family back here for hikes or dog walks.
A nice park in a wonderful location! This park is very straight forward with the trails. If you just want to see the waterfall then take the trail on the left side. It will lead you to the waterfall. I enjoy finding a rock to sit on and read or take pictures. Many venture down to the base of waterfall but I am not as daring. If you take the path to the right you will walk through the covered bridge. This leads to all the trails. The trails are nice for trail running as they are for the most part pretty flat. There is a trail that leads to the waterfall where you can look down at it or venture to the bottom. Caution: it is very slippery and I have seen many fall. Overall, it is a good park and I like that you can choose how strenuous you want to make it. My only reason for taking a star away is the amount of trash that is now on the trail for it becoming more popular.
I really fell in love with this place. Georgia is gorgeous and this spot made it even more beautiful. I am definitely coming back!
There's a proliferation of signs with arbitrary rules and a Disney-fication of what used to be some semi-dangerous fun for the mischievous but once you get past the gentrified facade of the park, into the forest, and away from the people, the locale is quite spectacular with an extensive system of trails. Watch out for snakes near the water and dogs off the leash.
