Campground Overview
About Rock Island State Park
Where cascading waterfalls meet serene forest trails, Rock Island State Park Campground offers a distinctive blend of natural grandeur, recreational opportunities, and modern conveniences. Centered around the Caney Fork Gorge, this Tennessee gem boasts awe-inspiring scenery, including the dramatic Great Falls and Twin Falls, along with hiking trails and riverside vistas. With campsites perched on ridge tops or nestled among woodlands, the park caters to RVs, trailers, and tent campers alike, providing a tranquil retreat.
The main campground features 50 sites equipped with water, electric hookups, and select sewer-access options, alongside amenities such as bathhouses with hot showers, a playground, and a picnic pavilion. A separate tent-only area offers solitude amidst nature without sacrificing amenities like hot water access. The park also supports a wide array of activities, from fishing and paddling to hiking trails like the Blue Hole Trail, which unveils unique features of the limestone gorge. Located near the quaint town of Rock Island and within 30 minutes of Center Hill Lake, this campground is an excellent choice for both weekend escapes and extended vacations.
