The {{convert|2200|acre|km2|sing=on}} state park is situated on the north shore of Tims Ford Lake near the north escarpment of the Cumberland Plateau, about ten miles from the city of Winchester. GeographyGeologically, the park is located in the Highland Rim province, a hilly, slightly dissected area characterized by karst topography and scattered knobs.[1] Terrain within the park is generally steep, except when approaching the lake shore. Tims Ford Lake, from which the park takes its name, was formed by a TVA hydroelectric dam over the Elk River. This dam was completed in 1970.[2] The lake itself is named after an early river crossing.[3]Facilities and managementThe park is open year round and is managed by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation. The park includes hiking trails, two campgrounds, two pavilions, a marina, and an 18-hole golf course called The Bear Trace, designed by Jack Nicklaus.
