Tennessee's Largest state park, with over 25,000 acres, Fall Creek Falls State Park offers some of the most spectacular scenery in the South. Over half the park is designated a natural area wilderness. Numerous spectacular water falls and streams grace the park. A 345 acre lake has yielded state record bluegill and channel catfish. Renowned Civil War genre painter, Gilbert Gaul, worked from his homesite within the present boundary of the park.

The purpose of the "Friends" organization is to foster conservation and educational efforts in support of Fall Creek Falls State Park, and to assist the Park in its efforts to better preserve and protect its existing land resources. This includes but is not limited to the many natural, cultural and scenic features and to assist in providing quality recreational and interpretive experiences.
