    Nice
    Nice, quiet park with electric and water hookups. Only $25 a night. On bathroom available during the day, and some pretty gross pit toilets for at night. But overall, a nice place to park for the night.

    Its a great place for famlies!
    Wildcat Springs is at the edge of a town and along a major creek. Children (or adults) can wade in the creek, search for Geodes, or hike into a woods. The upper park is on a bluff. There is a public swimming pool, campground and picnic area. Its an easily acceptable fun place. The park has two parks.
