This place is absolutely lovely. Has a nice variety of terrains and landscapes, and is the perfect place for a quiet walk.

Water is really low but still very beautiful and a small swimming hole was nice with cold cold water. We had a blast!

Hiked the Turkey Creek Loop on a hot day. A little over 3 miles. There were 4 stream crossings but the water was low and we were able to cross no problem. Just be cautious after recent rains as it may be difficult or impassable.

Love this place! Scenic views, and a swimming hole with a rope swing. Admittedly the rope swing is pretty useless to swing off into the water, but it's still fun. We always have a great time here.

Unimproved camp sites, mosquito and tick infested. Good for hiking. I walked 200 yards and picked 3 ticks out of my hair.

It's a beautiful area and basic, but it's very easy to get to and get out if it doesn't agree with you. Some nice caves and over hangs to camp at as well, if you don't want to set a tent. Have fun!

It's at the entrance near the pierpont store. Once you're at the parking lot there's two trails, one that takes you along the bluff that is right in front of the parking lot and then there's another trail that's next to the road that you came in on near the houses. You take the trail closest to The house's, you're going to go down the hill for quite a ways, you're going to come to a creek then you turn right which is more or less straight down the creek, walk for about a quarter of a mile then you should be at the swimming hole where Three Creeks come together. Last time I was there there was a rope swing.

Hi! Does anyone know what the swimming hole is like recently??
