Hickory Run State Park

by alliee2 , Apr 21 '00
Pros: bears, bugs, deer, trees
Cons: mosquitos
As a child, I was raised every summer in the woods. My parents were big campers and we would go camping every summer for a week. When we weren't camping, my dad would take me out in the woods walking, fishing, hiking or just spending some time together....

Cons: wild bears do come out
Getting There

When you go to Hickory Run, it might be because you've heard of the great big field of rocks, Boulder Field, but there is plenty more to see. On your way there you will probably drive right over part of the park and not...

There's no place like home

by c2sue , Jul 08 '01
Pros: beautiful woods
Cons: bears, bugs, crowds
My family and I recently visited Hickory Run State park. As far as State parks go, I didn't like this one at all. We were given a map of the place and a warning about the bears being active. My son and I walked several miles and never did find what...

Pros: Amazing Boulder Field, Lots of Hiking Trails
Cons: Bathrooms,Shower houses,Limited Activities,Mosquitoes,Sites too close together.
My family and I took a short weekend trip to Hickory Run State Park one weekend. The road going into the park is very long and winding, proceed with caution in wet or icy conditions. The clerk at check in wasn't very friendly, in fact she had an attitude ...

Agreed! 7/26/06 Review Is Dead On!
by jdjunkmall ,Aug 13 '07
Pros: All the pros are correct
Cons: All the cons are correct
The review dated 7/26/06 is correct in every respect based on my family's trip on 8/10-12/07. The campsites are too close, the bathrooms were dirty, the camp store only gets milk once a week, the roads need to be re-paved, etc. The The only difference was that we found the camp staff helpful and friendly. I would add don't bother fishing at the Dam with your kids--it is over fished. Also, the Lake beach is dirty and inundated with biting flies. The Boulder Field, however, is very interesting. I know that a field of boulders sounds boring, but you will be surprised how interesting it is to explore. You should also try a hike to the waterfall. The water is cold at first, but the swimming is pleasant and the views beautiful. Although you have to be careful, jumping off the cliffs into the water was a great rush.
