Bandy Creek is a wonderful location for camping if you like hiking or horseback riding. The network of trails throughout the park is tremendous.

Always ana enjoyable place to camp and hike. I don't think there is a bad hike in the Big South Fork Recreation Area.

I come to Bandy Creek a lot I am very sad that the park has not maintained the horse trails the main access trail from the stable out has not had anything done to it in a very long time i find this very disturbing that the crown jewel of this area is not managed better. I understand that times are hard but the park provides a great way to relax and enjoy the great out doors. Some of the other trails are in bad shape also this needs to be addressed or the park will loose the support of all of the people that come to enjoy this great place, I would hate to see that. There are so few places that offer such a wonderful way to enjoy nature.

Bandy Creek is the best. Can not go wrong with B loop; best in my opinion. Went the weekend of the astronomy program. Highly recommend the program if you can. Campground is usually good walking distant to all activities. B Loop being the closest (with hookups). Wood can be purchased on site at camp store or self serve behind camp store during non business hours. Always very clean showers and bathrooms. Nice walking/hiking trails all very close to campground. Great fishing in the river (fish the currents!)

everyone in the ranger station was polite and helpful. we walked 5 miles on yrails on two different days on two different days. saw a large black bear a mile down the road when we left. Bandy Creek is a special place we hope to to again. The road up or down the mountain to Oneida should not be used for motorhomes or 5th wheel because of very sharp turns on switch backs. Go thru Jamestown. A large swimming was a great surprise at $3.00 per person. Its only ooen Friday, Saturday and Sunday when we were there in the summertime. We got to shop the 127 flea market in Jamestown which actually is 690 miles long once a year. we visited Brushy Mountain State Penitentury which is interesting history. Went shopping in Jamestown, Clarksville and Cookeville. Lots of caves and waterfalls nearby.

Beautiful campground with great amenities. The sights are nicely spaced and well maintained. Clean bathrooms and showers. Quiet! Fantastic hiking and biking all around the area. Dont miss Crystal Falls! Very nice swimming pool with a lifeguard. But you have to pay every day to use it. The camp host was super helpful and friendly. Well be back this fall! More trails to explore.

Beautiful place. However, our site was occupied and the owner was unable to move his camper.
The park personnel did an outstanding job of trying to accommodate us, but we decided to leave a few days early.

We love camping at Bandy Creek. The shower house is roomy and clean, which is very important to me. We love hiking so have many trails to choose from.
