A grate place for a hike with more than one trails. Something for everyone. Beautiful views of the various falls.

Burgess Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Tennessee. The trail th the bottom is no longer open because of damage from flooding. You can kayak to the bottom of Burgess Falls from Center Hill Lake if you don't mind paddling for a few hours. Be sure to explore the area, and don't miss out on anything

Beautiful park, waterfalls are gorgeous and hiking trails are well maintained. Has a nice park play area for kids. Very recommended, only downside, no cell phone signal.

Such a gorgeous state park! But the terrain is rough and not for the disabled or faint of heart & should be extremely careful when taking young ones there. It was so incredibly difficult to get my grandson's jogging stroller through. Often it was carried over my son-in-law's head while someone else held the baby. But my father has been going to these falls since he was a child, & now he's disabled & on hospice. It meant so much that my son and son-in-law were able to fireman carry him down to see the top falls. The ladder to get to the base of the falls is broken. Hoping it will be fixed soon.

An amazing, must-see natural gem! The trail itself is not very long (less than a mile), but be advised that it may not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues due to the tough terrain and steep climbs. But if you are up for it, you are rewarded with fantastic views of not just one, but THREE amazing waterfalls, each larger and more incredible than the previous. The overlook for the second falls was closed due to damage. The third falls have another short but very intense hike to get you right to the edge of the falls (not for those with fear of heights!). Best enjoyed on a bright, sunny day. Comfortable shoes with good traction on we surfaces are recommended. Also know that there is virtually no cell phone reception in the area, even for emergency calls.

From out of state. First time there. Went for a very pleasant walk, wish I had more time. Hope to come back and do this in the summer.

Awesome little park. The hike is easy/moderate with a strenuous section down to the base of the falls (not required to see the falls). The trail to the base is currently closed due to flooding damage. Be sure to check the website to see when it opens if that important to you. Otherwise It is still a great place. You get to see three waterfalls in about the span of .5 miles. The parking area has a playground for the kids as well as a few educational displays and a picnic area. I highly recommend this pain if you're in the area. It's by far my favorite waterfall.

Awesome waterfalls. Easy hike with multiple falls. One of the best we have seen. Disappointing that the stairs to the bottom of the main falls are damaged preventing access. Excellent hike for the entire family.

We were here for the eclipse, and were blown away! The park staff was very friendly, even passing out eclipse glasses for free, snacks, and water. The place never got too crowded, and we had a great view of the eclipse. We also saw some of the falls, hard to believe it didn't cost a thing either!

I watched the Eclipse from this park and the staff was outstanding. They offered glasses and snacks to everyone. In addition to that, the waterfalls were great. I would definitely recommend this park.

Just about 18min. off highway. Great trails the wife and I took our 5mon., 2yr old, and 5yr old to burn off some energy from long drive. Worth the drive!

My third time visiting this great waterfall. Peaceful to see and hear. Hiking trials are so convenient. There are some steep stairs. But all doable and worthy. No problem with parking spaces, plenty at 10am, and again at 4pm. Only complaint is no access to the bottom of Burgees Falls due to structural damage of staircase leading to the Burgees Falls. But you can plenty of soaking fun throughout.

This is a great place to hike. Mostly shaded. And you can bring you dogs on a leash.

It's beautiful, well groomed, clean restrooms. However the day we visited the path to the large falls were closed. So that was a disappointment, but we still enjoyed the day there.
