Hickory Knob State Park Comments & Reviews
Visited Hickory Knob State Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Hickory Knob State Park?






Warning. Site #23 has quite a slope on it. We have a 39′ Class A and we couldn’t get it level. Also, if it’s raining, it’s all mud. I would not (although the view is great) recommend it for an RV.
