Henry Horton State Park - Chapel Hill

Dated but nice Lodge, enjoyed our stay. New restaurant served good food. Pool was awesome! Very nice picnic area along the Duck River.

We stayed in cabin 8 for 3 nights. It was a beautiful cabin but had roaches in the kitchen. A lot of roaches. We had to put our food items in the car. We had told them last year about this same issue and was told it would be taken care of. It was not. The mattresses on the beds were so bad we had a hard time sleeping on them. They need to be replaced. I tried to talk to someone at the office but no one was at the desk. I am so disappointed.

Excellent skeet and trap range. They have 4 trap fields (3 of the 4 fields have a wobble trap option), 2 combo fields and 4 skeet feilds. If you want to just knock the rust off or challenge your buddies to a round, Henry Horton skeet and trap range is a great place to come and enjoy with friends or the whole family.

Wow, customer service was top notch! Park was beautiful! Shout out to Hannah Wallace! What a friendly young lady! I bought a bunch of water etc and was going to come back to pick it up as I was walking! She made arrangements with Ben Stanley who was kind enough to deliver it to my campsite! Then, Bobbie Mitchell helped me with my motorcycle! Yeah, she is the bomb! I was looking for a guy to help me and her question was could a woman manage it! Of coursewe had no problem doing it together! Biggest surpriseride my bike out of the park 3.4 miles and broke down! Left it at a gas station walked a bit and an suv from the park stopped and asked if I was okay! I mentioned I was walking back to the park as my bike broke down. Not only did Shaun Rainon take me back to the park, he dropped me off right at my site. I will definitely make a point of going back to this park! The trails were awesome, I don’t think there is a bad site in the park! Every employee I mentioned went over and above with a smile and a great attitude! So happy I spent a couple of days here! From Ontario, Canada! Thank you!!

Henry Horton State Park gets 5 stars because I REALLY like this park, not because it 's perfect. The park is large with great forest areas the Duck River. Lots of wildlife in our 3 days we saw river otters, beaver, deer (including a deer crossing the river , squirrels, hawks, pileated woodpeckers, red bellied woodpeckers, and many other birds topped by a bald eagle soaring over us on the river. Speaking of the Duck River, we canoed kayaked from two different put ins in the park, while catching several bluegill. There is a good restaurant, a visitor center with a nearby picnic area, a golf course, and reportedly a disc golf course. There are plenty of hiking trails to keep you walking for hours. The campground is in a beautiful forested area along the Duck River, providing great shade for those sunny Tennessee days. Most of the sites are well separated from the other sites, and the winding access road for the RV campground (there are separate tent and hammock campground is wide enough to make for easy back in, but there are also a number of pull thru sites as well. The water electric hookups are well placed in most sites that I noted, and each site has table, fire pit, and lamppost. There is a nice playground with big sandpit near the camp store. Two dump stations are across the exit road from the playground, as well as a pair of dumpsters for your trash. The campground was clean, and the hard working camp hosts were friendly. There were three shortcomings that I can think of none of them major. First, expect to do some leveling of your camper, both fore and aft as well as side to side. I used my entire set of legos under my left wheel to get it high enough, and a long rig (my TT is 20 ' might have to raise both sides on some downhill sites to get level fore and aft. Second, with only two bathhouses, some of the sites are a bit distant. Third, the two bathhouses aren 't first rate. They were clean, but seemed dingy, so they didn 't feel clean. Most of the fixtures were aging, since there were no paper towels, the aging blow dryers left you with wet hands as you left the bathhouse. The shortcomings are far offset by the great experience the park provided, and we 'll definitely return as time allows.
