The picnic pavilion has three tables and a paved parking area nearby. A large grill and water source is located at the pavilion. Additional tables are located nearby, as are trash containers and a pit toilet. The walkways and many of the sites are accessible; however the restroom has limited accessibility. Horse Creek Pavilion is located close to Horse Creek and adjacent to Sampson Mountain Wilderness. It is located at the base of the Bald Mountains at an elevation of 1,720 feet. Hiking, water-play and fishing are popular activities. Scarlet Oak Trail (#181) is a .2 mile leg-stretcher through the forest bordering the recreation area. A more primitive hiking experience is available on three trails located in the nearby Sampson Mountain Wilderness. A small campground and more picnic sites are located in Horse Creek Recreation Area.
From Greeneville, take TN 107 north for six miles. Turn right at Horse Creek Road and follow the signs about two miles to the recreation area.
Such a beautiful place. There are concrete picnic tables right beside the water and hiking trails nearby. Please leave no trace. Take out your trash and leave it beautiful for others to enjoy.
I grew up coming to Horse Creek park. It's sad they don't want to restore it back to the way it was so more people can enjoy the beauty and history of it. We go here often to look at nature and to cool off.
It's beautiful but needs so more supervised rules about dogs at large. Bathrooms were a little rough this time and the gate being locked at night was upsetting.
Didn't ask up to the end of the road as in for a vehicle can travel. Had fford the creek three times but that's okay
We normally camp up at Ole forge but this time wanted something new it was so but better I can't wait until next year when they update things the camp host was amazing he gave us all kind of great information and made our trip even better
