About Corn Creek Park
Corn Creek Park offers a refreshing cold spring experience in Alabama, where you can immerse yourself in clear, cool waters surrounded by natural beauty. The creek features gentle rapids and small rock falls, creating an inviting setting for swimming and playful rope swings along its 1-3 foot deep channels. As the creek flows into a larger river, you find a peaceful, authentic spot rarely crowded.
Getting There
Located about 15 miles north of Montgomery, access requires some navigation off Route 9 near Watumpka. A gravel road leads you through a wooded area into the park, with parking available but limited. Expect a 10 to 15-minute walk from the parking area to reach the creek, so prepare for a short hike.
What to Expect
The water stays cool year-round, making it a perfect escape during warmer months. The atmosphere remains tranquil with few visitors, allowing you to enjoy natural swimming holes without disturbance. Facilities are minimal, emphasizing a primitive, nature-focused experience where you can connect with the creek’s rhythms and playful features.
Tips for Visitors
Visit during weekdays or early mornings to ensure quiet surroundings. Wear sturdy shoes for the gravel road and walking trail, and bring insect repellent for wooded sections. Since parking is limited and the area is primitive, pack everything you need, as no fees or amenities are provided at Corn Creek Park.
