herself at Gathel Spring. Nolichucky River has a nice whitewater paddling spot close by, and close by you find the Patty Ridge Trail which is a magnificent hiking trail. So many cool things to do here at Painter Pond, too magnificent
to be true. In case you don’t mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Nolichucky River, and the Clark Creek Trail is a good hiking trail close by. During your visit to Painter Pond you'll meet
some people from Johnson City for sure, of course you could also explore Bays Mountain Reservoir while you're here; it's not far at all. MeadowView Conference Resort & Convention Center is a perfect place to get some rest; if you came for an overnight stay Davy Crockett Birth Place Park is a good place to camp.

Horse Creek Campground
 | 15 miles away I live at horse creek and while it is very nice for rough camping and hiking it offers no fishing, white water rafting or skiing within an hour drive. Davy crockett state park is not picturesque it is a big grass field with a very very small box called a cabin that davy crocket supposedly lived in. Don't waste your time. There are much, much better places if you want fun and sightseeing. If you want quite and picturesque, then by all means come to horse creek and don't forget to take your trash with you...it is of course my back yard... |
