Reviews of Hickory Creek Park
"Small local park, used primarily by residents in the immediate vicinity. Nice quiet spot for fishing and grilling. Most likely one of Knox County's 2 most remote, and outlying parks (the other being "Stony Point" which is actually a colloquial name--It's official name is actually 'Melton Hill Park') due to its close proximity to the Knox/Loudon county line. However, be aware when visiting that this is a pretty basic park which offers few niceties (playgrounds, lights, bathrooms, water fountains, etc) like you might find in the larger urban parks (like 'Tyson Park' near the UT campus for example). This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but would-be visitors should know ahead of time that there are no bathrooms. It does have 2 covered picnic tables, a single street light, trash cans, a grill, and boat launching ramp on the waterfront--though the grill is quite neglected and rusty, so you would almost certainly want to bring your own. Unless they've been installed recently, the park does not have gates, but does have stated opening and closing times of sunup to sundown on the sign (which seems to be a general rule for Knox County parks), and if you're there after hours, your presence there at "odd hours" could be viewed with suspicion if you're spotted by the Police, or a Park Ranger/Game Warden. The Park Service told me when I called them to get permission to host an astronomy club star party at Stony Point that there have been reports of some of the more remote Knox County parks being vandalized, used as druggy hangouts (or as rendezvous spots for drug deals), and general mischief during off hours, so even remote, outlying Parks (like Stony Point and Hickory Creek) are either having automated gates installed, or are being more frequently patrolled (or both). It isn't difficult to get permission from the Park Service if you want to use the park to host an event (like a Church picnic, Boy Scout camping outing, or astronomy club star party for example), and getting permission reduces the likelihood of you being viewed with suspicion if you're seen there after dark."
"Phenomenal little park woth great place for relaxing and also boat ramp to go kayaking! Quiet place and not much traffic! Will return"
"We kayak here a lot since it is off the main channel and has very little boat traffic. There is a boat ramp but it is very shallow, there is no way you could launch anything but a jon boat here. Even then, if the water is below full pool, I would not try."
"Peaceful quiet very relaxing park close to the I 40. Smallest park not overcrowded and the only one at the park. So peaceful all I needed was a blanket and some sandwiches my day could of been filled with joy."
"Great. Rarely crowded. Just very shallow for launches. Probably limited to wave runner and kayaks."
