Adventure Paradise
Review by tourism@mccrearycounty.com - Feb 07, 2017 - 12:14 PM
McCreary County is a Adventure Paradise !! Hiking, Biking , Paddle, its all there. The Big South Fork Scenic Railway is amazing, 3 hour round trip through the hills with the most beautiful sights. Home of the Cumberland Falls, Eagle Falls, Yahoo Falls, Natural Arch!! You simply cant see it all in one day, great place for a weekend get away . The Whistle Stop Cafe in downtown Stearns was so welcoming, everyone has southern hospitality . We will be going back in June 2017, just one of the greatest small towns I have visited.
