Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park

The 105-acre park stretches along the Nolichucky River and features a reconstructed log cabin, museum exhibits, and demonstration areas of frontier life.

The park marks the birthplace of David Crockett, born in 1786, who later became a Tennessee state legislator and United States Representative before his death at the Alamo.

The museum presents artifacts and exhibits that document the life of David Crockett, from his early days as a frontiersman to his political career and military service.

Visitors can access 88 camping sites, picnic areas, a swimming pool, hiking trails along the riverbank, and a boat launching ramp on the Nolichucky River.

The park sits at the junction of the Nolichucky River and Big Limestone Creek, where Native American settlements existed during the Woodland period before European colonization.
