Save Tennessee's Fall Creek Falls State Park and Conference Center

Just remodel it - don't tear it down. It wouldn't be the same if the inn looked different. Modern looks on the outside are not always better/

We have enjoyed the FCF Inn for over 30 years wirh our children and grandchildren. Please protect this Tennessee State treasure for generations to come and prohibit it from becoming under the control of a private company. Loosing this wonderful facility would be a state tragedy. Thank you!

Do you have any idea how few employment opportunities are anywhere near Fall Creek Falls? The park is so removed from civilization that those employees need their jobs and benefits. Don't take away so many people's lives and livelihoods or remove such a vital revenue source from the park for so long.

Don't privatize Fall Creek Falls State Park!

Please keep the wonderful park employees and DO NOT contract out their jobs. My family has utilized the park facilities for over 40 years and each experience has been outstanding.

Stop the destruction & privatization of TN!

We love this place and was planning on visiting this Spring. Save this place!

My uncle is the manager at the inn. Please help in anyway you can! We love Fall Creek Falls!

This is a state park, it should be operated by the state.

Our family loves this park. We go several times a year.

Please do not destroy this beautiful place.

Don't let our state be privatized especially parks; we need state and federal laws in the parks!

It is a wonderful place!!

This is horrible

"The "Queen of Tennessee State Parks", Fall Creek Falls, in Spencer Tennessee is under threat of being "Privatized". Fall Creek Falls is the most visited of all of Tennessee's State Parks. It is 25,000 acres of timber,virgin forests, gorges and waterfalls. A plan is currently underway to close the Inn and Conference Center and replace it with a "sterile" more modern facility. This would maximize the conference area but diminish capacity of the hotel for families that may wish to visit and enjoy our park. Once the old facility is demolished and the new one is built and paid for with our public tax dollars;they intend to privatize the center to allow a private company to profit from it. The Inn and Conference Center is one of the major employers in the area of Van Buren , Bledsoe and White counties. The park is the major employer for Van Buren county. The Inn and Conference Center at Fall Creek Falls has become an integral part of the community. It is a place for first dates, a gathering place for families and a popular wedding venue. This year over 1300 reservations for Thanksgiving have been made already in a county of only 5000 people. We do hereby petition the Governor of Tennessee and the Legislature of this great state to intercede and prohibit the demolition of the Fall Creek Falls Inn and Conference Center and the termination of the jobs of over 100 families from this economically stressed community."

Leave fall creek park as it is.

This really needs to stop

This the property of all residents of Tennessee. It should no be auctioned off/outsourced to or privatized. Keep Money spent I. Tennessee in Tennessee.

I love this place just the way it is! There is no need to test the inn and restaurant down. It is such a great place to go for a quick weekend d get away that is affordable for working class families!

Please do not ruin our favorite state park. Renovate- not destroy!!!
