See All Available Dates

You can now view all available dates, up to a full year ahead, of any facility that is showing unavailable for your selected dates. Unavailable facilities are shown on the map or list as gray icons.

Show Available Dates

The description window of any unavailable facility includes a large blue button with "Show Available Dates". Use this button to reveal an interactive calendar that shows every available date for that facility — allowing you to easily change your dates so you can reserve that favorite facility.

This will also reset your selected dates so that you can select more than one facility for the same date.

If you need assistance making facility reservations, please give us a call. We'll be happy to help!

Firewood Policy

Only Certified Heat Treated Firewood is allowed to enter the state park. Please help us to protect Tennessee's state parks and forests.

Electronic Gate Information

For enhanced safety and security, Long Hunter State Park has installed a new electronic gate at the main entrance of the park. The gate will open daily at 5 AM and close nightly at 8 PM. Please note:

• Entry will not be permitted outside of the operational hours listed above. Boat ramp users may still launch if they arrive before 8 PM.
• Guests visiting the park should vacate by closing time at 8 PM. (The park’s day-use areas close at 8 PM.)
• Exiting the park will remain unrestricted. The gate will automatically open for all outbound traffic.

Operational hours at other areas of the park (Bryant’s Grove and Volunteer Trail) will not be affected. These areas will continue to close at 5 PM during standard time and 8 PM during daylight saving time.

If you have any questions, please contact the park at 615-885-2422.
