In Crossville-Cumberland Mountain ( 33min) State Park is a 1,586-acre park situated on the sandstone tableland of the Cumberland Plateau. The biological diversity of the Cumberland Mountain area is remarkable, as the park contains every type of tree, shrub, and flower found on the Cumberland Plateau. A summer walk on the Byrd Lake Trail will testify to this claim. The park is home to typical Tennessee mammals such as deer, rabbit, squirrel, raccoon, skunk, and gray and red fox, as well as a variety of songbirds and waterfowl. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE Land was acquired south of Crossville in 1934 as a project of the Farm Security Administration to provide a recreation area for some 250 families selected to homestead in the general area of Cumberland County. The Homestead Act was established by the Roosevelt Administration to aid in building a self-sustaining community and create further colonization in this then—sparsely populated part of the state. The Civilian Conservation Corps, the Works Projects Administration, and the American Friends Service Committee constructed the park, which opened in 1940. The park’s architecture is unique. A local rock, Crab Orchard sandstone was used to build many of the park’s buildings. The Crab Orchard stone dam/bridge is the park’s best-known landmark and is the largest masonry structure ever built by the CCC.
